Good quality, works great
I'm very happy with this tubing bender. I bought it to bend 1/2 inch o.d. steel tubing with .065 and .090 inch mild steel walls. They work great for that purpose. The quality is good, which is what I would expect from Rigid branded tools.

Stout bender for tubing SS tubing.
Got stuck with having to buy this for a one off project for our cars EGR pipe that is no longer made and there is none on the after market either. So $100.00 in materials and this and I was in business! It is stainless steel and the rollers make bending an ease. Accurate gauge on the side makes hitting an angle a breeze once you work out the spring back of the tubing. There was little flattening of the tubing I was using which was .500" with a .028" wall thickness and soft temper. Really impressed with the nice and easy bends produced. Like all really good tools, this one cost but it is very well built and I suspect that it will outlive the average tradesman if taken care of. The pain of the cost will fade away after the first time you use this. Also, I have a .375" and a .250" model as well so I am all in on these.

It does not work. it's supposed to bend pipes
Do not buy this tool. It does not work as intended—it's supposed to bend pipes, but all it does is break them. It should be removed from the market. DO NOT BUY.
