b)      Straight tubes shall be purchased and bending shall be carried  in house  or at tube manufacturer

c)       I want to know does it require any solution annealing after U bending ? and if Yes  what will be cooling media and method to avoid flattening of tube near bend

d)       What are the testing require to ensure correct metallurgical , physical and  mechanical properties
