Microwave Development Laboratories, Inc., has utilized its full design and development capabilities to improve and supplement the performance of cast waveguide bends. As a result of extensive research, MDL now offers the most complete line of cast bends in the industry. These units are cast within MDL's own foundry facilities. Quality control standards are such as to insure the highest caliber casting. VSWR characteristics of these bends is typically 1.03 with a maximum of 1.05.

Units are readily supplied from stock or on short term delivery. In addition to these items, unusual configurations can be fabricated or castings developed to meet specific requirements if customers demands cannot be met with these basic designs.  Call 203-461-9000 ext. 308  Visit us at www.dage.com
