The maximum flange length for 4-sided boxes depends on a few factors: whether hardware will be installed and whether sheet metal or plastic is being used.
See our detailed guidance on measuring flange lengths if needed!
4-sided box flange length limit for parts with hardware
For parts with hardware installed, the maximum flange length is 3.00”.
Box bend limitations for parts without hardware
For parts without hardware installed, the maximum flange length for 4-sided boxes 3.50″.
We’re unable to form boxes that close in on themselves.
Keep in mind that our channel bend requirements will factor into box bend designs.
Polycarbonate box bend limitations
Polycarbonate parts with more than 3 bends require a custom quote. Please note that u-channel bends in polycarbonate must have a 3:1 base-to-flange ratio.
Box it up!
Before uploading your part file to our website for an instant quote, be sure to review our bending design guidelines. If you have questions about creating box parts just ask our Support team!
