Custom Metal Bending
As a full-service fabrication company, one of our many specialties include custom metal bending for pipes, bars, beams and tubes. We can take your custom prototype or designs and bring it to life for your specific project and needs. With experience averaging nearly a decade, our talented workforce takes tremendous pride in maintaining a level of quality second to none. Your products are formed accurately, on time, and with minimal distortion and maximum consistency. While precision steel shaping is always in highest demand, our veteran, versatile metal-benders work with a multitude of different materials. We’ll bend to the shapes and radii you need, no matter what they’re made of.

Metal Bending Materials
Rjcmold’s metal bending service is compatible with many high-quality materials with different thicknesses. Our facility has ultra-modern equipment to bend materials across different mechanical and thermal properties. Check out some of the materials available for your project.
| Name | Description | Subtypes |
|---|---|---|
| Aluminum | Commercially, aluminum is the most sought-after material for sheet metal manufacturing. Its popularity is due to its adaptive qualities and its high thermal conductivity and low resistance rates. Compared to steel—another common sheet metal material—aluminum is more cost-effective and has a higher rate of production. The material also generates the least amount of waste and can easily be reused. | Subtypes: 2024, 5052, 5083, 6061, 6063, 6082, 7075 |
| Copper | Copper is a broadly used sheet metal fabrication material in many industries as it offers good malleability and ductility. Copper is also well suited for sheet metal fabrication because of its excellent heat conduction properties and electrical conductivity. | Subtypes: C101, C110, C103, C27400, C28000. C36000 |
| Steel | Steel offers a number of beneficial properties for industrial applications, including rigidity, longevity, heat resistance and corrosion resistance. Steel sheet metal is ideal for producing complex designs and parts that require extreme precision. Steel is also cost-efficient to work with and has excellent polishing properties. | Subtypes: 1018, 1020, 1025， 1045， 1215， 4130， 4140， 4340， 5140，A36，ST37 |
Metal Bending Advantages
While welding is inevitable in many cases and bending cannot substitute it everywhere, we recommend choosing metal bending services whenever possible. The advantages of metal folding are:
Online Plastic and Sheet Metal Bending Services
If you’re looking to make your 2D sheet metal or polycarbonate project into a 3D part, CNC bending is where to start.
Bending is specific to each material and thickness, and requires a high level of precision. Achieving a final product that fits within tight tolerances is a difficult process made easy by Rjcmold. We will bend your laser-cut or CNC routed parts to your specifications within one degree of accuracy or better.
Starting from $9, no minimum quantity. As low as $1 per part in bulk!
