302027-1-Bending-Kit.
Product Name: Bending Kit (High-Pressure Tube Bender) (Part No. 302027-1)
Description:
The Bending Kit 302027-1 is a mechanical tool set designed for forming precise, kink-free bends in high-pressure (HP) stainless steel tubing. It is utilized to route tubing around obstacles or fit onto pre-existing ports in waterjet cutting systems, specifically for preparing tubing connections for the pump, cutting head, or manifold.
Applications:
Changing the direction of HP tubing to connect components that are not linearly aligned.
Rerouting replacement tubing during maintenance or repair of intensifier pumps.
Creating custom-length high-pressure lines for manifolds, check valves, or cutting heads.
Suitable for common tubing sizes, typically including 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, and 9/16 inch diameters.
Features:
Mandrel-Style Design: Supports the inside of the tube to prevent the wall from collapsing or kinking during the bending process.
Precision Degree Indication: Includes marked guide wheels that allow the operator to verify the angle (e.g., 45°, 90°, 180°) in real-time.
Ergonomic Leverage: Designed with long handles to reduce the physical effort required to bend hardened stainless steel.
Corrosion Protection: Constructed from coated or plated steel to resist rust in wet workshop environments.
Maintenance:
Inspect Rollers: Before use, check the bending die and counter-rollers for nicks or debris. A damaged surface will scratch the tube and create stress risers.
Lubrication: Lightly oil the pivot points and guide grooves periodically to ensure smooth operation.
Clean Surfaces: Wipe down the tool after use to remove grit, which can cause wear on the tube's protective outer layer.
Storage: Store in a dry location to prevent corrosion of the precision-machined dies.
