How to make U-channels out of glavanized sheet metal?

jeudi 25 juin 2015

Hi,

I want to make U-channels from 0.65mm galvanized steel plate.
The U-channels will be use as edging on metal cages.

The U-channels need to have following dimensions:
Height: 20mm on both sides
Internal width; 3.5mm
Length varying from 300mm to 1000mm

I can't use plastic or rubber as animals will chew on it.
I am in the market to buy a pan brake but most of them can only fold up to 135 degrees and I need to be able to bend to 180 degrees
A hemming tool isn't good either as it just flattens the material.

Can somebody tell me how this is done with sheet metal tools?
I want to make them myself as I need to be able to make variants to the design.
Thanks for your help.

Luc
