It bends mild steel tube from 1-1\/2\" to 3\" OD up to 180 degrees, and it ships with the full die set, so it is ready to bend when it comes off the truck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tube is clamped between a radius die and a pair of back shoes. The main cylinder drives the radius die forward while the side cylinders hold pressure on the swing gates, drawing the tube around the die. Side pressure is adjustable from 0 to 1000 PSI with a gauge alongside, and the knee pad runs the ram forward and back so both hands stay on the work. Half-length shoes are included for bends that sit less than 10\" apart. Baileigh specifies 12-gauge wall for 2-1\/4\" to 3\" OD tube. Compression bending is the fast, practical method for exhaust in this size range; if the job calls for full-diameter bends at a tight radius in thin-wall stainless, that is work for a \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/mandrel-benders\" title=\"Mandrel Tube Benders\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003emandrel bender\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the rear of the machine is a hydraulic swager\/expander. It expands and reduces tube ends, and forms flares, slip joints and male and female ball joints, using the included expander tips, segment expanders, swage dies, ball dies, domer dies, pipe flanger and clamp collets. Baileigh rates it to end-finish exhaust and tail tubes to original equipment specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EB-300 runs a 4 hp motor on 220V single-phase power, so it does not need a three-phase service. It sits on locking casters and ships LTL at about 1,640 lb, crated at 69\" x 32\" x 53\". Baileigh backs it with a 1-year parts warranty and lifetime technical support.
