Does anyone have a good idea of minimum bending radius for the 1/2 inch cable TV hardline? I have been told anything from 5" to 50". I believe 5" is way too sharp but 50"??? I sure that 50" would not
Like Andrew LDF Heliax? 5" is the min bending radius.. The thing to remember is not so much the bend radius, but, rather, you only get to bend it once. Each time you bend it, it work hardens the cop
The 1/2" stuff I have used could be bent pretty tight, I wouldn't go much less than 1' radius though without proper tools. With proper bending jigs you could probably get it much tighter without kink
And not all hard line is created equally in this (and many) regard(s). Some mechanical constructions are more flexible than others. My guideline is not a hard number, but rather to observe what it se
Conduit benders are one predictable way to bend hardline and I also have some 90 degree bend frames for half inch PEX waterlines. The PEX is easy to kink and doesn't like to stay bent so these are ma

I recollect that the minimum bending radius for all coaxes is 6 times the diameter. For 1/2" RG-8, that'd be 3 inches. I think that's for coax with braided shield (the RG-8, RG-213) kind. It's an An
