Tube Forming & Bending

Gen3 Aerospace specializes in precision tube bending and forming for hydraulic, fuel, and pneumatic systems across a wide range of applications. Our comprehensive tube bending capabilities handle everything from small diameter tubing (1/4″ and smaller) to large diameter components (up to 4″), ensuring we can meet the diverse requirements of modern system designs.

From simple single bends to complex multi-plane assemblies with integrated fittings, our tube forming capabilities deliver the precision and reliability that critical fluid systems require.

Our tube forming capabilities include:

Precision Bending Capabilities

  • Multiple bend radii and complex geometries to meet system routing requirements
  • Tight tolerance bending for critical fit applications
  • Single and multi-plane bends for complex routing challenges

System Integration

  • Complete tube assemblies with integrated fittings, brackets, and mounting hardware
  • Custom routing solutions that optimize space utilization and performance
  • Design support to ensure manufacturability and system functionality
  • Prototype through production quantities with consistent quality

Comprehensive End Finishing

Our tube assemblies are manufactured with a full range of end fittings and finishing operations including welded connections, swaged fittings, flared ends, beaded connections, and other specialized terminations. This complete finishing capability allows us to deliver ready-to-install tube assemblies rather than just bent components.

Quality Verification

Using our Eaton Leonard LaserVision Vector Measuring Machine, we provide precise dimensional verification of all tube assemblies, ensuring accurate fit and proper system integration.
