Overview: Precision Bending for HVAC Professionals

The Bradley STB6-KIT Spring Tube Bender Set is an indispensable addition to any HVAC, refrigeration, or plumbing toolkit. This comprehensive set of six spring benders is engineered to provide smooth, controlled bends on soft copper and aluminium tubing, effectively preventing kinking, collapsing, and costly material waste. Achieve professional-grade results with every curve and corner.

Crafted from heavy-duty, nickel-plated steel, these benders offer exceptional durability and resistance to corrosion, ensuring a long service life even in demanding environments. The kit includes the most commonly used sizes, ranging from 1/4 inch to 5/8 inch, making it versatile for a wide array of residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Each spring features belled ends for quick and effortless removal after bending.

Why Precision Bending Matters

Improper tube bending can lead to significant issues, including restricted flow, system inefficiencies, and potential leak points. The Bradley STB6-KIT eliminates these concerns by allowing you to create perfect bends that maintain the tubing's integrity and cross-sectional area. This not only enhances the performance and longevity of your installations but also significantly reduces rework and material spoilage, saving you time and money on every job.

Tradie Pro Tip

For easier spring removal, especially on tighter bends, apply a small amount of lubricant (like WD-40 or a silicone spray) to the inside of the spring before bending. After bending, slightly 'overbend' the tube in the opposite direction for a moment to relieve tension, then the spring should slide out smoothly.
