Die
Figure 3. Die installed on bottle jack ram.
3. Choose an angle to bend your pipe. To make
a 35-45˚ bend, place the rollers between the
far outside holes on the frame. To make a
90˚ bend, place the rollers between the holes
closest to the ram. Placing the rollers fur
ther inside the frame increases the bending
angle.

Note: To account for pipe shortening dur-
ing the bend, make sure the pipe extends
beyond the rollers
pipe, set the rollers closer together, as shown
in Figure 6.
