RDB-050 Ratchet Style Draw Bender

The Model RDB-050 Ratchet Style Draw Bender is a high quality bender for your shop, at a very reasonable price. The RDB-050 bender was designed with fabricators in mind that build racing chasis for stock cars, and need a bender to get started on before they move up to a high production automatic model. This bender is extremely powerful and can bend up to 2 1/2 inch OD mild steel tube with a wall thickness of .120, and 2 inch OD chromoly with a wall thickness of .120 inch. This bender has three pull speeds and can be set so each full pull on the handle moves the bender either 1, 2, or 3 teeth on the ratchet plate. Model RDB-050 Ratchet Style Draw Bender uses the standard tooling shown at the bottom of this page (die sets required for each size of tubing). The die sets are the same as used on the other Baileigh draw benders, so your tooling can be used if you ever move up to an automatic model.
