a. profiled, in a straight condition, to be bent by yourself:
The profiled handrails in lengths up to 6 m are packed in cardboard tubes and have a moisture content of about 12%: perfect for bending. The handrails should only be unpacked just before you start bending.
Lengths over 6 m are split by means of 9° cuts, ready for reassembly upon arrival of the shipment.
Also see: 4. How to bend handrails.
b. pre-bent and fixed onto flat transport moulds:
Pre-bent round handrails are fixed onto a transport mould and shipped in a flat cardboard box.
Bent and half-cut:
Also see: How to perform the upwards bending during installation.
c. Short radius bent parts, ready for assembly:
All parts that are more tightly bent than 1 : 20 are made to your requirements and supplied in bent layers.
Also see: Short radius handrail parts - Bendywood®.
d. raw, in straight condition, to be milled by yourself:
The raw square-edged bending bars (50x50 mm to 50x100 mm), used for producing customized handrails, are normally packed and have a moisture content of about 8%: perfect for milling.
