VEVOR Pipe Tube Bender, 3/8" to 1" Manual Pipe Tube Bender, with 7 Dies, Heavy Duty Tube Bender Tubing of Steel Metal Copper, for Repair Shops, Blue

Rock Solid & Fast. I am using the VEVOR Pipe Tube Bender alongside my JD-32 to bend 3/4" & 1" Tubing for Control Arms on our Karts. The Vevor Tubing Bender works great for this type of work significantly speeding up production. The Vevor Bender has been designed really well, the Dies are Very Durable & Reliable producing accurate bends without kinking or mauling the Steel tubing.

This works great. I used it to make exhaust hangars. For those saying the parts doesn't fit. Just sand off some of the paint around the joints and it'll fit just fine.

For $120, this bender is awesome. I've made a few boat hand rails with it and it works great. It's not for the novice tubing bender, but if you have enough material to make mistakes; that's how you learn. It makes nice and smooth bends, but it does leave a devit where the clamp eye is. If they could re-engineer that clamp eye so it wouldn't leave a devit; this thing would be the biggest bang for the buck. I love it though. For my boat and the boats I work on (working fishing boats) it's perfect. Small dent in the bend doesn't matter. I've used it on 3/8 copper compressor tubing, 7/8 and 1" sst rail tubing for boat gunnels. For the 1" tubing, you'll need a long cheater bar, but the bender holds up. I put a pry bar in it to extend the handle 1.5' and that worked great to bend 1" sst. I'd definately buy it again, but hopefully i don't need to.

For the price, it's pretty capable. Pros and cons then details: Pros: - Easy to set up - Small - Great for single bends Cons: - Handle is too short for larger tube - Difficult to align multiple bends - Needs regular greasing My shop is small and this was easy to fix to the side of my welding table in a vertical orientation where it takes up virtually no space at all. For tube under 1/2", the provided handle works well. That being said, I had to use a 5' extension with all my weight on it to successfully bend 1" x 0.055" wall Chromoly. For single bends it works fine, however there are no markings on the dies to align multiple bends along a centerline. I added my own marking that works well enough, your mileage may vary. As noted in other reviews, the collars on the dies do leave a small indentation on the tube. Probably not an issue for most, but you could fab a strap collar if needed. Lastly, the construction is good overall and everything slides together easily. However, I recommend greasing the main posts and the through holes on the dies. I didn't do this at first and got significant galling on the handle post after only a couple 1" bends. If you'll be mostly bending 3/8-1/2, maybe 3/4 thin wall, this will do the job just fine. If you plan to bend mostly 1", I'd encourage looking for a more capable hydraulic bender.

Seems to work as designed. Requires a very sturdy base, and a lot of room around it. Instructoins are kind lacking, but it is easy to use.

First thing is first, the cast metal die cracked on me and failed on the third tube that I tried to bend (1 inch stainless). Other things to note, the hole that holds the tube is generally oversized and allows the tube to sit at an angle when bending. Not a big issue for bends less than 180 degrees, but if you are looking for the full 180, this becomes a problem. If you're looking to be able to bend softer metals at angles of less than 150 degrees or so, this will be fine. If you want harder materials or larger tubes, spend a little more and get something better.

Shipped with duplicate 22mm bending dies and no 25mm bending die so I can't use it on 1" OD pipe which is what I really needed it for. I have contacted Vevor they claim to have responded with a ticket # and information, but nothing is yet available. This will be returned if not rectified. It appears it should do the job with the right parts. Vevor customer service is an endless unproductive loop. I ended up returning it to Amazon. I hope the 2nd one has all the correct parts.

Received the bender, and mounted it on a 2 x 6, lag bolted into the studs in the garage. I set-about a project that I had been postponing until this purchase arrived, and found it to be a solution to several different problems which I needed to solve. It is sturdy, and appears to be fit for long term, heavy duty use. NOTE: The photographs of this bender show the bender with the exchangeable radius forms installed upside-down. The square/rectangular protrusion in the casting is the stop which prevents the radius form from rotating. If used with the radius form installed as shown in the photos, you risk breaking a radius form when bending under extreme conditions, Additionally, you may find that you have to use some sand paper to remove the paint from the radius form pivot holes, before they will fit easily on the bender hub. A minute or two, with a piece of rolled-up 320 grit sand paper will do it for you, though--nothing to write home about. All-in-all, this will get quite a bit of use in the future days and months ahead.

Buena herramienta

Not quite final placement however the aluminum coolant lines I put in just made me love playing with this bender. Definitely recommend this one however you need a strong vice or way of solidly mounting it for which its designed for. This is not the final placement on my engine but gives you a little idea what can be done with this toy.

Attrezzo benfatto e molto più dimensionato di quello che mi aspettavo. Ho piegato perfettamente dei tubi anche di acciaio dandogli una forma perfetta.

Perfect for the work I am doing and very good price.
