Description The Model 3 Bender is a high-quality and affordable bender that is great for one off race car builders and low volume use. The Model 32 is an upgraded version of the Model 3. It is a heavier duty machine and can bend the largest OD and heaviest wall thickness. The Model 4 is a production bender. It also has the special capabilities to do S-bends. The die does not rotate like the Model 3 and 32. It is easy to set up and handles thin wall well.
