Hydraulic pipe bender
Hi Guys,
Hoping someone out there can help me. I broke the 1 1/2" die in my hydraulic pipe bender last night
, and I am wondering where to go to replace it. It's a Forbes bender but any brand die would suffice. Many Thanks
Mark.

Try Hare & Forbes Machinery house? or Total tools. There would be other tool/equipment suppliers who could supply die as well I would think

If for some reason you cannot get a replacement, it wouldn't be too difficult to make one up.

Just THOUGHT.....many years ago i used to do lots of pipe bending and found some of the dies kinked the internal bend of the pipe if i used structural grade. there was one brand ( i cant remebr now) that was a bigger radius that didnt cause that problem . so maybe check the die before you buy

Thanks for your advice. I managed to get one that fits from Hare and Forbes. By the way you must be a lot smarter than me Fossil to be able to make one, I wouldn't know where to start!
Thanks again
Mark.
