Eastwood Tube Bender Air-Hydraulic Conversion Kit (72076)

Eastwood Tube Bender Air-Hydraulic Conversion Kit (72076)The Air-Hydraulic Conversion Kit turns the manual Eastwood High Capacity Tube Bender into a hydraulic-assist bender driven by the compressed air you already have in the shop. It connects to a standard air line and uses just 90 psi of air to generate 1,450 psi of hydraulic force at the ram — enough to push heavy tube and pipe through a bend with a fraction of the effort the handle takes.You drive the ram with the included foot pedal, so both hands stay on the work for smooth, repeatable bends in aluminum, steel, stainless, and chromoly. The kit bolts onto your existing bender without complex modifications, and it includes a hydraulic-unit mounting tray that fits the optional rolling stand (72075) if you want a tidy, mobile bend station. It may also work with similar manual tube benders from Woodward-Fab, Pro-Tools, JD2 and others.If you have an air compressor and want hydraulic bending without running a separate electric power unit, this is the lower-cost way to get it. For a shop without enough air on tap, the electro-hydraulic kit (72077) does the same job on standard household power.
