Irwin Hilmor Pipe Benders Advice.

[RDB85]

I’m looking at purchasing a pipe bender, I’ve seen this on eBay: irwin hilmor t620100j | eBay - https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F163536049675

Would it be okay? It doesn’t appear to have the vice. But I’m sure one can be bought online? Or would you leave it and get another one?

Some say these were the UK manufacturers of Hilmor benders.

looks good to me. just buy a tin of smooth hammerite cover up that banana colour.the shorty is a good unit, not too heavy to carry.

Not much good without the vice.

It hasn’t got a pipe (tube) stop which will cost £27.30 as you’ll not find a second hand one. I was gutted having to spend £27.30 on a cast piece of aluminium but without it - you’ll not bend a tune! or a tube.

Found a used one here if that’s correct: Tube stop | eBay - https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F233135927288

I slowly assembled mine from various sites I’ve worked on.
The stop was the first thing I obtained.

That’s the one, grab it if you win the auction. And don’t lose it on site OR let Spin anywhere near it!

Spin, I thought more of you! How big was your bag when you were ‘taking’ the frame off site!

It’s surprising just how much you can fit into those Stanley Fat Max rucksacks.

Didn’t win it. I will just have to keep an eye out or get a new one.
