JD SQUARED MODEL 32 TUBE BENDER PACKAGES

Original JD Squared Model 32 Tube Bender, Dies and Stand

The world's most popular roll cage tube bender. The fantastic Model 32 ratchet tube bender is essentially, a heavy-duty version of the JD2 Model 3 bender (made for over 40 years in the USA) with extra features built in.

Bend from 1/2" to 2.0" x 3.2mm wall steel by hand, and up to 2.5" x 3.2mm with one of our hydraulic upgrade options. JD Squared make over 300 dies for the Model 32 in imperial and metric tube, Imperial and metric Square Box & Imperial and Metric PIPE (CHS black steel)

The Model 32 was built from the ground up to take hydraulics and features a lug for a trunion mount built into the main frame. Another feature of the Model 32 is the built in anti-springback feature. This consists of 2 parts; a second toothed locking rack, and a drop pin assembly, both of which keep the bending process travelling in the forwards only direction which helps prevent crinkling on thin-walled tubing.

The Model 32 bender is manufactured from thicker and wider plates than its smaller brother. Larger pins are used for its maximum capability of 2.5" (with hydraulics). In its manual guise the hand ratchet assembly is brass bushed for a smoother operation and the ratchet ratio is increased over the Model 3 making it 20% easier to pull by hand.

LARGE CAPACITY - Bends round tubing and pipe from 1/2" to 2 1/2" O.D. and square tubing from 1/2" to 1-1/2". This bender is rated to bend 2" o.d. x .250" wall CDS steel tubing. Also capable of solid steel up to 1 1/2" diameter. NOTE: To bend round tubing over 2" o.d. x .120" wall, square tubing over 1 1/2" or solids over 1" diameter requires hydraulics.

EASY OPERATION – The Model 32 uses a high-ratio ratchet mechanism to allows the operator to bend larger tubing sizes comfortably without assistance. For example, the average operator can bend up to 2.0" od tubing with a 3.2mm wall. 1.25" x  2.0mm sized mild steel tubing can be bent with one hand and 1" x .065" wall tubing with ONE finger. Dies can be changed in under 30 seconds. Bend times are typically in the 30-60 second range for 1" O.D. and above tubing using the ratchet mechanism. Hydraulics may be slightly slower or faster depending on the power unit chosen.

HIGHLY ACCURATE - With the degree indicator standard on every Model 32, accurate bending is simply a matter of watching the pointer until the degree of bend you desire is reached. High contrast yellow markings on a black wheel provide excellent readability while bending. Simply loosen the lower nut as shown in the picture to the right, rotate the degree wheel to zero degrees and using finger force only, tighten in position.

The Model 32 is our favourite JD Squared product and does a great job, both for the home fabricator and professionals alike. Like the Model 3, the Model 32 has over 300 available die sets which should cover all your projects from a boat handrail to a World Rally car chassis.

Many copies have been made of the JD Squared Model 3 & Model 32 benders over the years, both at home and overseas. For quality, strength and resale value, why choose anything else? Thousands of customers can't be wrong.
