Product Identity

The Ridgid 400 Series 632-36122 lever bender handles 1/4 in. capacity tubing for plumbing professionals and installers. It forms clean bends in aluminum, copper and steel tube using an oil-absorbing shoe that reduces friction during the bend. A built-in vise mount secures the tool for stable, repeatable results on site or in the shop. The cushion-grip handle improves comfort during repeated use.

Thermals Noise Power

This manual tool produces no heat, noise or electrical draw during operation. Performance depends entirely on the force applied by the user rather than any motor or hydraulic system. The oil-absorbing shoe minimizes resistance so less effort is needed to achieve a smooth radius. No external power source or cooling is required for normal use.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Under continuous bending tasks the lever mechanism maintains consistent geometry without hydraulic fade or motor fatigue. The vise mount keeps alignment true across multiple bends, preventing drift that can occur with handheld-only tools. Cushion grips reduce hand strain over long sessions so operators can maintain steady pressure. The oil-absorbing shoe continues to limit friction bend after bend.

Highlights

Questions about this item

How do I secure the Ridgid 400 Series bender using the built-in vise mount before bending 1/4 in. tubing?

Clamp the tool firmly in a bench vise through the integrated mount, ensure the cushion-grip handle is clear, then insert the tube into the oil-absorbing shoe and pull the lever smoothly to form the bend.

What upkeep does the oil-absorbing shoe and cushion-grip handle need after repeated use on copper or steel tubing?

Wipe the shoe clean of metal shavings and residual oil, inspect the grip for tears, and apply a light machine oil to the pivot point if lever action becomes stiff.

At what point does the lever effort become excessive when making multiple 1/4 in. bends in stainless steel tubing?

Resistance rises sharply once the tube work-hardens; if the lever requires two-handed force or the shoe slips, stop and anneal the tubing or switch to a larger-capacity bender.
