A style of bending where the bend arm is moved positive a few degrees, then the tube is pushed through a set of rollers. This achieves a large radius bend.

Typically, there is a single roller on the clamp die assembly. That roller opposes a another roller that is placed where the bend die in rotary draw bending is normally placed. This roller can vary in size compared to the other rollers in the die assembly. Two more rollers of the same CLR as the front clamp roller are on the pressure die assembly. All four rollers rotate freely. The tube is pushed through these rollers to create a large radius bend.
