摘要

A pipe bend is shaped and held in place by a former consisting of two half-molds (1,2) hinged together at one end (3). The pipe is bent between the half-molds (1,2) and held in place by closing a clip (4) at the other end. Correct closure is aided by intermeshing guide slots and the upper half (1) preferably encloses the pipe by more than 180 deg . Two formers can be joined side by side.
