With
its superior performance and simple operation,
the Blue Bullet BB-2 exhaust pipe bender will
hold a special place in your shop. We took our
standard bender and equipped it with a knee
valve and degree plate combination for a
straightforward, rugged design that will never
let you down. The knee operated valve gives you
precise control and hands-free bending
capabilities. Simply push the lever to the left
to advance the bending die and then to the right
to retract it. Heavy-duty cast iron construction
guarantees that the valve will stand up to years
of heavy use.
You're currently
looking at the BendPak Blue-Bullet with the included
BB-2 Deluxe Tooling Package. If you don't require
the extra tooling, consider the
BB-1 version of this product.
Quick-change bending dies
Who has time to waste? Not you. Especially when you
have a car in the air and others lined up. Our
competitors tried for years to come up with an
effective way to swiftly switch out the bending
dies. But BendPak actually did it. Our twist-lock
tooling and quick-change bending dies are so
effective that they are copied across the entire
industry. We choose to think of imitation as the
best form of flattery, but you should make sure that
you get your innovative equipment from the
originator and not a knock-off.
180°
bending capacity
You told us you needed a bender with an extremely
deep bending capability. Is a U-shape deep enough?
Thought so. Be sure to ask for our 180° dies if
you're planning to bend more than 170°. You'll get
perfect deep bends on a 5" radius, without pipe
sticking or hang ups. That's because we use an
exclusive relief cut design on our bending dies to
help maintain the pipe's uniformity throughout the
bend cycle and eliminate excessive crimping or
deformation.
3" bending
capacity
We built a convenient 3" bending capacity into every
BendPak bender. In fact, our 3" bending dies
perfectly exemplify our commitment to quality. Take
a close look at the design. They might look like
ordinary bending dies, but these heavy handfuls are
anything but. No other manufacturer uses our
exclusive step-cut process for the die rails. Our
dies feature better-contained large-sized tubing and
a more uniform bend. Despite the title of "bender,"
this unit is actually capable of expanding and
flaring too! With a full range of dies to choose
from, your big tubing jobs just got a whole lot
smaller.
Long-stroke
bending cylinder
Because every BendPak bender is equipped with an
extended-top cylinder, you no longer need to use
pusher block extensions when bending with
small-radius dies. Also, the 14" top-cylinder can be
retracted further, providing additional clearance
for changing dies or removing bent tubing.
Clampless
swager
All BendPak benders are equipped with our exclusive
clampless swager which puts out an incredible force
of over 30,000 lbs. for quick and precise end
forming. The clampless swager provides rapid set-up
time and a high degree of accuracy for I.D.
expansions, O.D. expansions, slip-fits, flares,
ball-joints, reductions and manifold flanges. All
tooling is quick release. Take a close look at the
clamp assembly. You won't see a cumbersome,
antiquated vise in our clamp assembly. What you will
find is American ingenuity at its finest—the narrow
hinged collars simply drop into position and allow
for flare tubing ends as close as 3" from a bend.
Don't worry about troublesome slippage either. The
more pressure you put on the clamps, the tighter
they grip.
Internal
segment expander
Our internal segment expander is just as unique as
our clampless swager and can be used for I.D.
expansions, O.D. expansions, slip-fits, flares,
ball-joints and manifold flanges. The buttress
canister has a single position setting for all I.D.
expansions, but can also be adjusted for special
sizing requirements. A single arbor is used for all
tubing sizes 1-1/2" - 3". Combined, the clampless
swager and internal expander let you easily perform
all end-finishing operations with unparalleled ease:
reducing, internal swaging, flares, flat flares,
ball-joints, male ball-joints, female sockets,
double-donut flares and more. The Blue-Bullet is
equipped with a double-ended cylinder for both the
clampless swager and segment expander. A single
control handle operates the cylinder and is placed
towards the middle, so you can stand comfortably in
one location and operate both sides.
Industrial-grade hydraulic cylinders
Integrated into every BendPak bender are
commercial-grade hydraulic cylinders that feature a
single-piece, pilot-fitted, machined-steel piston,
wrapped with specially designed, pressure-loaded
U-cup piston seals, backups and wear bands to
virtually eliminate fluid bypass. The micro-smooth
chrome-rod is machined from high-yield, ground and
polished C-1045/50 micro-alloy steel and plated to a
minimum of .001" diametrically, to ensure superior
cylinder operation and life. The superior-design
high durometer, mechanically-loaded rod seals make
rod leakage is a thing of the past while a specially
formulated abrasion-resistant urethane rod wiper
provides exclusion protection. The welded cylinder
body is made from robust steel tubing produced to
exceed ASTM specifications. This combination of
superb base material and superior processing ensures
that the cylinders remain straight, smooth and last
a very long time.
Durable
powder coat finish
All BendPak benders feature a durable powder-coat
finish that gives the metal a high-quality,
extremely durable finish which can withstand even
the harshest environmental or chemical conditions.
Unlike other companies that claim to powder coat, we
take pride in our meticulous 10-step process. First,
all parts are visually inspected before being
sandblasted. Afterwards, the parts are washed in our
5-stage phosphate tanks that can accommodate parts
up to 25' long. Once cleaned, they're immediately
dried to avoid rust production, and then outgassed.
Outgassing pre-bakes the parts in a curing oven,
reducing the possibility of blemishes that may be
hiding in the pores of the metal. If not properly
outgassed, imperfections in the metal may bubble
during the curing process and most likely will cause
chips in the powder. After the parts are washed and
outgassed, any surfaces and / or threaded holes that
need to be masked or plugged, are done so with
high-temperature masking tape and silicone plugs.
Next, the parts are given a quick thinner wipe to
remove any light debris or fingerprints, before
being hung on an electrostatically grounded conveyor
line. The powder is finally applied using an
electrostatic spray gun. The powder "sticks" to the
surface in a fashion similar to how dust sticks to a
television screen. Once the parts are powder coated,
the carts are rolled into our curing oven and baked
at 400° F for 45 minutes.
Optional
step-by-step digital user guide
Our exhaustive BendData program features over 10,000
bending applications. The simple computer program
system guides you through every step of exhaust and
tailpipe fabrication. Coverage includes domestic and
light trucks as far back as 1965.
