If you don’t need the press and the Handy Bend that comes with the UF-25H, then less expensive UB-5H will give you an economical way to still do some serious metal bending.

While scrolls can be formed on both unit’s with the Scroll (bender) Attachment, the UB-5H shown above can be outfitted with the optional Picket Twister and Basket Attachment.

Each UB-5H Universal Bender comes with a Lock-N-Stop Gauge for making precise repeatable bends. Once you use start using the Lock-N-Stop Gauge you will soon realize the importance it plays in determining and making repeat bends. The Lock-N-Stop Gauge, with its engraved numbering system, not only gives you a way to repeat your bends, but it provides you with a way to record bends for future reference.

This unit is made up of a SA Scroll Attachment and a bench mount stand. The SA Scroll attachment can be purchased without the bender mount stand and used on both the UF-25H and the UB-5H.

The combined functions of the UF-25H in one machine makes it similar in its usefulness to the ironworker, which became very popular when it combined punching and shearing in one unit.

The Handy Bend Press Break included with each unit bends heavy mild steel hot rolled flat bar stock up to 4″ wide by 陆” in thickness. The Handy Bend is useful for bending heavy metal bar stock such as those used in the making of, or repairing, of trailer hitches, construction and farm equipment.

The air over hydraulic press uses a 25 ton cylinder which can serve for other press forming or straightening operations once the Handy Bend has been removed. The press can then also be used for any special forming notching, or punching dies you may want to make for it requiring up to 25 tons of pressure. You can purchase a Handy Bend itself for use in your own hydraulic press provided you do not exceed the 25 tons it is rated for.

This multiple purpose UF-25H Universal Fabricator will bend pipe up to 1-1/4″, round tubing up to 1-5/8″, as well as square tubing up to 1-1/2″.
