![]() Please note that there is a difference between a tubing bender and a pipe bender. The pivoting arm moves the dies relative to each other, allowing you to add 1 degree up to about 180 degrees of bend (if you have a die capable of bending that far). ![]() As said, each bender will be slightly different, but the basic idea is that straight tubing is forced into the bending die using the follower die while being held in place by the holding die or U-strap. ![]() Some benders also have added on degree rings, and hydraulic or air over hydraulic rams to actuate the bender. Most benders we've used have a bending die, follower die, U-strap or holding die, a fixed arm, and pivoting arm, pins, mount, and some sort of ratcheting mechanism. Tubing benders all have similar anatomy, and most commercially available tubing benders follow a similar pattern of parts unless you have a really fancy bender.
