When fabricators build custom brake lines, fuel hard lines, or transmission cooler loops, trying to bend metal tubing by hand almost always results in kinked, flattened, or ruined lines. The Fragola 1/4" Lever Tubing Bender is a specialized fabrication tool designed to create perfectly smooth, professional-grade bends without compromising the inner diameter of the tubing.
This specific model is dedicated exclusively to 1/4-inch outer diameter (O.D.) tubing, which is the industry standard size for most automotive brake systems and small fuel/vacuum lines.
Key Features
-
Open-Slide Design: The bender can be slipped over the tube at any point in the line.
This is a massive advantage over enclosed benders that require you to thread the entire length of the tube through the tool. -
180-Degree Capability: Engineered to make smooth, tight-radius bends up to a full 180 degrees.
It features etched calibration markings so the fabricator can hit exact angles (45°, 90°, 180°) with perfect repeatability. -
Non-Marring Operation: The wide hook grips the tube securely, ensuring the tool does not score, scratch, or flatten the tubing during the bending process—critical for high-pressure fluid lines.
-
Multi-Material Bending: Generates enough leverage to easily bend annealed copper, aluminum, standard steel, and heavy-duty stainless steel hard lines.
