ECOTRIC Tube and Pipe Bender Black Oxide Coating Steel Manual Hand Bender Tubing Tube Bender Pipe Bender Replace for WFB2

great bargain.

I just received the bender yesterday. Got it unboxed and assembled. Assembly was easy and nothing was missing. Appears to be a quality product. My only "concerns"- packaging, not the greatest, - finish, I cant tell if it has a an actual finish(paint, powder coat, etc.) and the degree wheel- the numbers/lines are hard to see but should be easy enough to remedy. Haven't used it yet, so I will update review at that time. ***update- I’ve now used this to build a roll cage for a race car, just great! I opted to utilize the swag off road kit to use an air jack. I went with Woodward fab dies, perfect fit and great results.***

First off, the instructions are terrible. However, the bender does work well. I bought the die from maxpeedngrounds and it fits. It will need to be painted as it comes pretty bare bones and will rust quickly if not protected. The handle was quite rusty when it arrived but some sandpaper and paint cured that. The locking collar needed to retapped as the set screw wouldn’t thread in. Overall, little things were wrong but it’s still worth the price.

Works great, would buy again

Fairly well built unit and like I said a heck of a deal as most of this design are several times more expensive. But the true cost is in the mandrels and there are none with this and I don’t see them offered by the same company. But a very good base to build on.

This was the lowest price bender I could find, even after pricing having my own CAD files laser cut. I'm using a die from Kaka Industries. Woodward dies apparently work also. Included hardware is SAE. I'd buy it again.

I bought this to make it hydraulic and i cant wait to make it hydraulic powered! It is real thick steel. The tolerances on my unit aren’t as bad as some people made it out to seem! I spent another couple hundred on the KAKA die and it worked great. Its worth the money. For reference its a woodward fab copy

Great bender and Woodward Fab/Eastwood and JD2 dies fit perfectly. It bolts to the Woodward Fab stand with a little massaging of the stand mounting holes. My only con is the bender material. It’s just made of hot roll steel and gouges easily when cycling through a bend. The ratchet arm digs into the bender frame if you don’t guide it to center. Overall I’m happy with this and it works like it should.

no recomiendo la compra de este producto estoy muy decepcionado por hacer esta compra
