1945 Pan Am-American Tube Bending Company, Inc. promo

Fuel injection lines are vital parts of an airplane engine. They are the "arteries" of the throbbing heart of the plane. These tubes twist and turn in and around the complex engine assembly, yet they must fit with unfailing precision—or these great Clippers of Pan-American Airways could not fly. This is but one of the many complicated precision jobs of tube bending which is all in the day's work at American Tube Bending Company, Inc. It is the pioneering engineering ability, the work of highly skilled hands, the designs of ingenious special machines and processes and the irreplaceable experience of 35 years of cooperative teamwork, of experimenting and perfecting that has brought the art of tube bending to its present high status at the American Tube Bending Company, Inc. We bend tubes — from the tiniest oil line to a 5 inch air-plane exhaust ring — into all kinds of complicated shapes and turns. Square, round, flat tubes are reduced, expanded, flared, flanged, beaded, swaged and welded—for airplane engine manufacturers, radar, automobiles, refrigeration, dairy equipment, etc. If you have a job or a problem of tube bending, we suggest that you put it up to us.
