Do More by Bending Square Tubing
Being “square” used to be synonymous with being uptight, uncreative, and less innovative. But BENDING square can make your business just the opposite.
By bending square and rectangular tubing, you’ll increase your output, offer more to your customers, and expand your product portfolio. There’s no better way to “get square” than with Huth benders, machining, and tools.
Stronger Bends, Stronger Business
Did you know that square and rectangular tubing actually becomes stronger in the bent section? It sounds counterintuitive, but square pipes and tubes become thicker and stronger when you bend them. It makes them great for support structures and frames.
Now that the manufacturing economy is heating up and the supply chain has become more fluid, we're seeing increasing opportunities for fabricators to gain new business and expand their product offerings. Building frames and structures with square and rectangular steel tubing can increase your portfolio and allow you to extend new items to your customers. Square and rectangular steel tubing is a rapidly growing area of demand in fabrication.

Dies Do It
How do you bend a square or rectangular piece of tubing? Using the right dies is the key to bending steel like a superhero. At Huth, we've designed and built specialized dies that allow our bending machines to easily and neatly bend square and rectangular tubing up to 3-inch diameters.
You can get many sizes right away—we carry stock tooling for ¾” through 3” square tube work, as well as some rectangular sizes. For rectangular tubing, our tooling can bend along the longer dimension or the “easy way” as well as oppositely, a.k.a. “the hard way.”
We also carry dies for flat stock. So if you need the dies to make a square pipe bend, we've got you covered. If we don't have the size you need as a stock item, be sure to inquire about our customization options. We can create custom dies for nearly any application and all thicknesses!
