KAKA INDUSTRIAL Flat Bar Bender,Zinc-Plated Mold for Anti-Rust & Smooth Finish, Bends Flat Steel (1.18"x0.394"), Round Steel (0.59"), Square Steel (0.511"), Scroll, Radius, Angle SBG-40

All in all, this is a decent bender. I've use it to make a number or nested bends with stepped diameters, for example, and I found it was fairly straight-forward to make repeatable bends with very little effort. All the components fit as they were intended to fit, and the moving parts move smoothly. The bending bar was a little loose on the pin, but not bad. I suspect some reviewers who complained about the fit may have missed the set screw that anchors the pivot pin. Also, some people complained that the tool came packaged with oil. To me this is a plus. Carb cleaner and a rag takes care of that. (At least it wasn't dry cosmoline). In my case, it would have been nice to have an assortment of additional (larger diameter) spacers, but I believe most people will do just fine with the 4 smaller diameters included.

It’s a lot chunkier in person. Should hold up fine for the home shop. Looks pretty nice and is a lot better quality than what I was expecting. This version has a nice finished look to it and the does looked pretty good too. Customer service is good. They accidentally sent the first bender to the wrong adress but quickly sent me another. Not exactly a tight tolerance tool but it’s workable

Works as expected out of the box. Highly configurable. I always customize tools according to need. This too provides a rugged base upon which you can add custom fixtures and jigs. For example, a custom center roller die. As with any tool, operating it at it's upper limit/range will cause it to wear more quickly. If you have a production line job that pushes the limits of the tool, get a bigger tool. For my purposes, this is the perfect size and I expect it to last many years.

This item will not form the size material they claim max round is 5/8 it is actually 5/16. Forming dies are not heat treated correctly type will start to deform in just a few uses. Not worth the money I should have bought a very similar tool that will do the same as what this wan will cheaper.

I use this for making u-shaped handles out of 1/2 round. like everyone, i have a shop made hossfeld type bender and it's good for really thick material but not nearly as accurate as this one. this bender can make very tight radius bends to less than 1/16 inch of where you need it without much setup at all, and if you take your time with marking and measuring a test bend and transfer those marks to your work, bends are right on the money each time.

I decided to keep it. I have a lot of tools and I can fix this thing up. The handle was a very sloppy fit in the frame so it wobbled. I filed off some burrs and put in a 0.030" shim stock for that. Much better now. The pins fit the main frame pivot hole about OK but lean a slight amount not square. The holes for the pins in the handle are very sloppy and the pins wobble around. The pins are about 0.500" and the holes are about 0.515" and not consistent at that. I'll clean up the holes and make my own pins to fit. As it comes it's passable for round material I suppose. Flat material will have issues with the sloppiness and I'm sure the bends would wander around in direction instead of staying in one flat plane. The instruction sheet is actually decently done, but fairly limited. Overall this thing is disappointing. I was using it partly as a test before buying one of their larger benders, but now I think I'll look elsewhere.

This worked great for bending spoons and other small pieces of metal. Very well constructed.

This wire bending fixture is pure JUNK!!!!! I have not found one part that is square plum or Paralell. The clearance between parts is so sloppy I had to re machine some parts and others make new ones, The engineering is good, it is just so poorly made I was unable to use it right out of the box.

Having got fed up with my old bender (a cheapie) I splurged on this one thinking it looked a good bit of engineering. Well..... If you do buy it do not even open the box without having to hand: 1 quantity of kitchen paper to attempt to de-grease all the parts of the awful lanolin type protection 2 a number of Allen keys, not provided (why more than one?? why not settle on one size for the product??) 3 some files to work on parts that do not fit (at this price inexcusable - a lazy supplier/manufacturer who cant be bothered to check all fits) 4 a lot of patience especially with the instructions that purport to show you how to make a number of complicated things. Would have been much better to show the most efficient way to make one simple bend. After all this my hands, tools and bench covered in lanolin and my mind not in a positive state. So to do todays bending job I used my old bender. A pity I did not check this earlier else I would have returned it for money back.

It has stops to set the angle. It's adjustable. It bends things. Does exactly what it's supposed to do. I use it in my shop regularly.

Great price and fast delivery

Se ve de buena calidad, aunque algo confuso en sus funciones porque es una herramienta 3 en uno, eso simplifica que está bien diseñado al principio algo confusa la explicación, del video con errores de edición las transiciones en este video no deben hacerlas, además que lo hicieron en dos partes, necesitan hacer otro en un solo video, falto la narración explicativa de cómo usar Tan buena herramienta Hola me pueden decir para que es este accesorio? Parece un tope, y si se quita puede girar más el plato? Para prolongar más el círculo de una figura? Gracias de antemano

Pretty good product for the hobby person
