These benders feel well made, pulls perfect bends with ease, fits in my tool bag and no need to carry a guide as it's all built in.

Commonly used by plumbers, a tube bender is an essential piece of equipment to get the job done efficiently. A pipe bender applies to the pipe by the former as it passes through the guides to form the desired angle. Please ensure you have the necessary ability and equipment (if required) to move the items into your property.The pipe bender is suitable for tubes of diameter 12-15 mm and 15-22 mm and can bend tubes up to an angle of 180 degrees.

I’ve only got the 15 had for around year now and love them nice and light straight forward to use now and again I put little bit of silicon grease on the plastic guide just make it smoother as some copper is just well not great and makes world of difference with the pull. If you compare to the Bahco 15mm bender at 3x the cost, this is great value for money, doesn't do 180 degree bends but looks just the same if you do two 90 degree bends close together. The precision form wheels are accurately positioned pre set rollers means you will get a perfect pipe bend every time you use it.The springs work slightly differently, in that you feed the tube inside the spring and carefully bend using pressure with your knee.

Some mention that it bends perfectly, no crimping, and easily bends 15mm copper pipe, while others say that they don't produce clean bends, the bends were heavily crinkled, and the bend looked unsightly. I would recommend the extension arms for your apprentice on the 22mm version to make it easier for them. Bending of copper pipe ensures unrestricted flow of water and can also create attractive, crafted finishes on installations.

Again, if you're working with one pipe at a time, predominantly doing 15 on a job, 22 on a job, I think it's a big time saver. The only thing that may be useful to have is some markings to indicate the angles to which you can bend eg. You've got markings on the side for your angles and just in case it's a Saturday morning job, they've thought of everything.
