Hi,
*I have a 48" length of pipe NPT on both ends and am wondering if
there is any way to straighten it out? The bends are of a small angle
and can only be seen when rolled across a level surface. I need the
pipe to be straight as possible.
Thanks,

For that size, it's probably barrel-straightening tech time, look down
the bore, see where the kink is, locate it on a two-point anvil and
whack it with a mallet. Repeat until happy with the results. Nothing
fancy about it, just tedious. Look up how they did barrel-
straightening in the old days for tips.
