|  Tube benders & dies I wil lbe getting another die for my 1:1 tube bender. So I'll have 3/4"x 2.25"R, 1"x 3"R, 1.5"x 4.5"R. I also have access to 1.75"x 5.5" R round tube dies. I use a JD2 model 3 manuel bender. As soon as I get an extra $1000 It'll be hydro. but thats down the line. if anyone has questions about bending or wants to know about the machine let me know |

nope.. pipe is bigger than tubing... if you bend 1 1/2" pipe, you would need a 1 3/4" die..then it still is slopping and you would crease the pipe.. they make pipe dies | |

| Pipe is meassured by the Inside Diameter, 1.25 SCDL 40 is 1.66" outside and 1.5 SCDL 40 is 1.9" outside...So you cant use tube dies... |
