Lenox Has Safety In Mind
Health and safety is the number one priority for Lenox, one of the World's leading professional knife blades, designed to prevent the blade from shattering when under extreme pressure.
Ideal for use by plumbers on site to produce sets, offsets and multiple bends in tubes up to a maximum diameter of 22mm, this innovative compact tube bender offers a lightweight and portable tool with precision, high pressure, aluminium die cast formers and guides.
The design of the Irwin Hilmor GLM with a straight arm also makes it the strongest and most durable machine in the market.
The Irwin Hilmor GLM hand bender, available with either metric or imperial tooling, has a maximum capacity of 22mm Copper and 15mm Stainless Steel and can bend 12, 15 and 18mm Copper.
The 15 and 22mm Formers also feature unique degree marks on the casting for 'at a glance' bend accuracy.
To assist the bending of larger diameter tube, the Irwin Hilmor GLM has pimpled bungs on the bending levers, which prevent the arms slipping if they are used on the floor, whilst steel reinforced inserts in the rubber feet prevent piecing and increase durability.
Flat edges to the bender castings also make vice mounting possible, enhancing ease of use.
