Title: TUBING BENDER
Post by: Guy B Jr on November 20, 2012, 04:22:40 PM

While grazing through Harbor Freight, I bought a small tubing bender that bends the 1/8" tubing that we use so much. I did not expect much for the price, but it produced a smoother bend in the tubing for a palstic tank I was putting together. You can check it here.

I'm in the market for one...Was the bend consistant throughout the radius?

Looks like a deal.

Doug,
The bend was constant throughout the radius. It looks as though it could do anything from a 1 deg deflection to a 180 deg U turn. The only drawback I see is that you can not alter the radius.

I have these two at the house, the tubing bender, I think is a DuBro product, but may be wrong.
