 *D of bend values at 1 and below are possible - but are rare and require special benders that can press material into the bender's dies.  (Most call this "carriage boost".)
 *Other variables, like wall factor, impact what is difficult.  Wall factor = OD / Wall Thickness

 *D of bend = 0.75 is very difficult and much more expensive.
