Model 3 shown with optional die set, hydraulic adapter kit, cylinder, and SRBA adapter.

The Original Model Three Tube Bender by JD Squared is designed for the professional fabricator or hobbyist who requires a dependable, accurate and affordable tube and pipe bender. This machine can bend from 1/2" to 2" OD tubing manually with little effort because of the compound leverage from the ratcheting arm and can be upgraded to hydraulic at any time. (For manual operation the Model 3 must be solidly attached to a fixture such as our Floor Pedestal). The Model 3 bender is CNC machined from high strength cold rolled steel and holds up to daily use much better than look-alike benders. The die sets are equipped with replaceable alloy blocks which eliminate galling of steel tubing. The Model 3's excellent bend quality is guaranteed to be as good or better than any bender on the market in the $3,000 and under range. The Model 3 is the #1 selling tube bender in the USA to racecar fabricators. Die sets sold separately.

Bill from Milan, IL: Service Rating =   Product Rating =

I have a small part time fab shop setup in my home garage. I build custom made to order motorcycle frames and was in need of an accurate and reliable bender. I found the model 3 and was a little skeptical at first but for the price I figured that I really couldn't go to far wrong. I ordered the bender with the degree ring, handle and dies for my most commonly used tube. Upon receiving the bender it was obvious this was a very nicely made serious pc. of equipment! I immediately assembled the machine and began a few practice bends. I was extremely happy with the bend results!! Very accurate and very easy to repeat multiple bends. This bender has cut a huge amount of time from the overall fab time of my frames. For anyone in doubt, this is a very serious machine! For the price this machine really cannot be beat. I purchased the manual bending handle due to my tight budget and can say that it really allows very precise and full control of each bend AND to my suprise, with very little effort. Overall I'm a very happy customer!! I am including a link to a gallery of pictures of my first of many to come projects using this bender. I want to point out that there were "0" wasted bends during the fab process!! This thing is that controlable and accurate! Anyway thanks for a great product!

This is an awesome bending machine. I use this for making rollcages. I highly recommend buying the hydraulic version though. But for the money you cant beat the accurate kink-free bends...
