Hi folks,

Most bending brakes rate their capacity by the thickness of mild steel
that can be bent. How does this relate to capacity of 2024-T3 aluminum?
So, what aluminum thickness can a 16ga, 20ga, 22ga, ... brake handle?

Should I simply multiply by the ratio of the yield strengths? That
somehow seems like an oversimplification.....

Thanks a lot. Peace,

Ihab
