: Critical factors like temperature management and mechanical strength.
A: Yes, with a minimum bending radius of 2.5x the thickness (for bars up to 10mm thick). The handbook provides stress relief guidelines to prevent cracking. Indal Handbook For Aluminium Busbar
To avoid cracking, the internal bend radius should typically be at least 1x to 2x the thickness of the bar, depending on the alloy temper. Maintenance and Safety Indal Handbook For Aluminium Busbar
