Example: 45° bends
Maximum num-
Taking into account a bending radius ≥ 25 mm / 1 inch and a maximum bending angle of
ber of torch body
45°, the following number of bends are possible:

Gas-cooled welding torches bent at least 1000 times
Water-cooled welding torches bent at least 200 times
Initial situation: 0°
