Microwave Techniques waveguide miter bends are minimum in size and provide superior electrical performance over a restricted bandwidth. These components are available in E-Plane and H-Plane bend configuration. While the standard material we fabricate is 6061-T6 Aluminum, other material options for miter bends include Copper and/or Brass.
