Abstract
A one-piece shaped aluminum or stainless steel half fitting for an insulated pipe. The method may include cutting a predetermined sized blank from material stock. A top and a corresponding bottom die may be installed into a press along with a matching press plate. The predetermined sized blank may then be inserted onto the press plate and aligned with locating marks on the press plate. Once the blank is installed properly into the press, the method may further include cooperatively bringing the top and bottom dies together to press the blank into a specifically shaped half fitting. When pressed, excess flange material may be created along the perimeter of the fitting shape and excess end portion material is created at end portions of the fitting shape. The top die may then be separated from said bottom die and the shaped half fitting may then be removed from the press. The method may further include trimming the excess flange material and excess end portion material from the shaped half fitting.
