Maximum bend radius

Why is the bend radius the maximum radius? The maximum radius is infinity which is a straight line. Oblomov99 (talk) 04:15, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Bend Allowance

Bend radius seems more complex than this. If I bend a rod into a circle, the length of the rod is not the same as the circumference of the inside or the outside of the circle. It will not be the average of the two either, because the outside of the rod will stretch more easily than the inside of the rod will compress. I postulate that there is an 'effective circumference' that defines where inside the rod the resulting circumference will be. It seems to be different for different metals and materials, like rubber hoses. "The Fabricator" gives formulas for this. Can anyone help with this?
