Do the same with Exhaust pipe and after less than 20 degrees in the bend, the outer middle of the pipe in the bend will flatten and squash inward ! Need a Dye to stop it crushing !
These have been around for years only we had a lever to operate the hydraulic ram cos we were miles tougher in them days than the plastic pipe fitters today, 2''bsp was a big ask when making expansion loops on steam mains, got yer ready for a few ales after work though,,,,
@@godisgood2915 no los grados no el radio de la curva. es yo fabrico dobladoras y quería saber cual es el radio mínimo para una curva en un tubo de pulgada y media.
I bought this machine 2 years ago it dose not work properly for 2" exhaust pipe or bigger diameter I had to pay 250.00 to return it back to were I purchased it
Because the die was specific to the pipe size. Most dies are labels 2" 3" etc. But a Pipe isn't 2" on the outside all the time. Plus some dies arn't 2" exactly. For instance Harbor Freight sells a 2" die pipe bender, BUT in order for you to bend a pipe perfectly like in this video your pipe needs to have a OD of 2.3". SO if your having pipe kinking issues that doesnt mean you cant bend your 2" pipe with a 2.3" die labeled 2". You just need to cover up one end of your pipe, Tightly pack with sand to support the inside so it doesnt kink. and if needed heat up the pipe in the area your going to bend it before hand.
@@AlphaWolfElectronics The reason they're labeled wrong is because some benders are meant for tube vs pipe. Tube is measured by outer diameter and pipe is measured by inner diameter.
