Anyone have a tube bender?

[ArticRubi]

I'm looking to build a different set of tube fenders to put on my corner armor that will fit better with a comp cut. Wondering if anyone has a tube bender I could use, 1" DOM

Key word : TUBE bender ! H.F. is a pipe bender. The big difference is pipe is sized by inside dimensions and tube is outside . I have a H.F. press and although it will bend either , the dies are made for pipe not tube. You will have to use the next size smaller die and you are limited as to how tight a radius you can bend without a kink. The next one I get will be the manual tube bender they have (H.F.) That you bolt to the floor and have an extendable handle. My Two pennies . FjR68

Buddy of mine has this one and he has used it a ton on a bunch of projects.

Hmm, second one looks like a nice option. Thanks guys.

What Frank said!

The HF pipe bender is not meant for HREW or DOM tube. You can do shallow bends of certain sizes but there's a reason they're called "tube kinkers".
