Flat bend-sheet dimensions

Enter the flat length of each segment between bend centerlines. End segments run from the cut edge to the first bend centerline.

FR-20408 converts to five flat segments: 0.875, 5.250, 6.750, 5.250, 0.875 in. These come from the 7/8 in, 6-1/8 in, and 19 in dimensions on the bend sheet.

Applied bend deduction

Applied BD = standard formula BD plus the empirical FR-20408 correction. Values are nominal; tooling, grain direction, springback, and actual stock thickness still require first-article verification.
