Product Overview:

Description

Eastwood Benchtop Metal Bender

The Eastwood 4-Inch Metal Bender is a compact but strong steel bender that is capable of completing precise bends up to 3/8-inch thick mild steel. It’s an affordable metal forming tool that fits on any workbench with easy hand-crank operation. Save space and time when bending suspension brackets or seat mounts for your project. Others use our medium-duty metal bender for patch panels or ornament artwork.

To make custom parts, simply mount the compact bender on a work surface with four bolts and start bending your desired material. There’s no need for a full-size hydraulic press that takes up a large amount of space in your shop when you can achieve the same results with a metal brake that’s a fraction of the size. The Eastwood 4” Metal Bender is a high-quality industrial-style tool capable of generating a powerful 2.5 tons of pressing force.

The Eastwood 4 Inch Metal Bender Features:

  • Powerful 2-1/2 tons of pressing force
  • Create up to 90 degree bends
  • Generates 2.5 tons of pressing force
  • Bends mild steel and aluminum up to 3/8" thick and 4" wide

Simply mount the bend on a work surface and start bending your desired material. No need for a full size hydraulic press that takes up a large amount of space in your shop. Save space and time when bending suspension brackets or seat mounts for your project.

Use your metal bender board to create 90-degree or lesser repeatable bends in mild steel and aluminum up to 4” wide. On 1/8-inch thick steel, you can increase the bend to 125 degrees. The maximum metal thickness varies depending on how wide the steel plate is; consult the chart below before getting started. Shop at Eastwood for professional-quality metal forming tools that cost less than comparable equipment from leading brands. We provide free technical support by phone, email or the Eastwood Garage.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product for the price. Worked perfectly. A little difficulty getting the bend square despite drawing guide lines on the piece. Wish there were accessories to allow a sharper bend angle, at least for aluminum.

Questions & Answers

Using 3/16” or 1/4” flat bar, the tool’s wedge tilts under pressure & bends the flat bar crooked. I also see that another reviewer has had this exact problem. Has the Eastwood 4” Bender been updated to have this flaw corrected?
