Tube Benders for Tight Spaces

Handle-free and one quarter the size of traditional tube benders, these benders fit in small, hard-to-reach spaces. Attach a _1/4"-drive ratchet wrench or extension to make bends in copper and aluminum tubing, such as brake and fuel lines—even if they're installed.

Tube Benders

Smoothly bend hard metal tubes, such as steel and titanium, without causing crimps or kinks. Unlike other tube benders that have aluminum mandrels, these tube benders have durable steel mandrels to withstand repeated use with hard metal as well as soft. Long handles create extra leverage to bend hard metal with less force. In addition to making bends as small as 15°, these benders have a rotating handle to make bends from 90° to 180° without ever crossing handles.

Tube Straighteners

Pull coiled tubing through these straighteners to make it smooth and level. They have acetal roller wheels that press your tubing into shape without marring the finish. Unlike pliers, which create kinks and bends that can restrict flow, these straighteners won't damage your tubing. To straighten tubing with different diameters, twist the adjustment knob to change the space between the wheels. Keep these straighteners steady by clamping them into your vise or mounting them to a work surface through holes on the base.

Hose Bender Springs

Slide these hose bender springs over your hose and bend to form any angle up to 90°. They prevent kinks and wear in rubber hose from repeated flexing, so they're often used to route hose around machinery and walkways. For angles larger than 90°, use additional bender springs. All are stainless steel for use in wet and corrosive environments.
