That is slick!

I guess it may be new equipment but I have had stainless tubing like brake lines bent like this by Classic Tube in Lancaster New York as far back as 2001. I do know that they told me they had a program for correct bends 1939-1940 Ford brake lines and when I got it it was right on the money. Would be nice if this technology would be used to accurately bend exhaust components from some of the suppliers that claim their products are bolt on. I imagine the new car makers and parts suppliers are using these or similar.

That's cool, but probably woud take a rocket scientist to operate it.

If I had that, I wouldn't have a straight piece of tubing in the shop!!

Barry WNY · 05-17-2012, 04:12 AM

I want to see it suck that test material back in and straighten it back out, someone must have tried it.

No good for us old guys- It only works down to 8mm tubing which is about 5/16". Our BRAKE lines are usually 3/16" and 1/4". Could be used for fuel lines though.
