Cableizer ®

Bend radius

This is the radius to the centerline of the bend.

When calculating the sidewall bearing pressure $F_{rad}$ the inside bending radius of the conduit is used instead, which is calculated as $r_{arc}-Di_{d}/2000$.

The smallest inside bending radius along the cable route should always be larger than the allowed minimal bending radius $r_{mbp}$.
