[Billy Bob Bob]

what make does every one else use? my old roths have worn on the middle spindle so wont bend 8mm any more so replaced it with a faithful,but looking in the rothenberger catalouge they make various and expensive different types from the simple one i had to hydrolic versions whats everyone elses Fave version?

Record mini benders. I think these are the same as the Irwin ones now.

I think the Hilmor ones are better now.

i bought this type,they seem ok never had any issues with faithful kit,trouble is nowadays everythings made in china so hope these will last they are not dear but has no one used the hydrolic versions?

After buying many cheaper/rubbish ones that twist the pipe finally bought a set of £20 roths, work a treat.

I've had these for over 20 years. Make perfect bends and they still work great.
