Product Details


The RIDGID #608 Heavy-Duty Instrument Tube Bender is engineered for contractors who need precision bending performance on hard tubing including stainless steel, steel, and titanium. Its innovative two-stage design allows in-plane bending from 90 to 180 degrees without ever crossing handles, with a simple half-turn rotation to lock and unlock the bending handle. Extra-long 16 in. handles deliver superior leverage, while roll dies in the bending carriage minimize tube flattening and gain marks on the bending form ensure properly aligned angles every time. A built-in vise clamp block adds extra stability during demanding bends, and cushioned handle grips reduce fatigue on the job. Backed by RIDGID’s Lifetime Warranty, this bender is a reliable long-term investment for professional plumbing and instrumentation work.
