Ridgid 608 1/2" Tube Bender
The Ridgid 608 is a heavy-duty instrument bender built for shaping stainless steel and titanium tubing up to 1/2 inch in diameter. It suits technicians and fabricators who need accurate bends in corrosion-resistant alloys without hydraulic equipment.
1/2 inch capacity with 1-1/2 inch bending radius
The tool forms bends from 90 to 180 degrees on 1/2 inch tubing using a fixed 1-1/2 inch radius. This single specification determines whether the bender matches the tube size and minimum bend radius required by the job.
Sustained use on stainless steel and titanium
Harder alloys such as stainless steel and titanium demand greater force per bend than softer metals. The heavy-duty construction absorbs that load repeatedly, keeping the radius consistent across multiple 90 to 180 degree bends without the deformation seen on lighter models.

Questions about this item
What tube sizes can the 1/2 inch capacity bender actually handle in a workshop?
The Ridgid 608 bends 1/2 inch outer-diameter stainless steel or titanium tube and pipe.
Does the 1-1/2 inch bending radius limit how tight a 90 degree turn can be?
Yes, every 90 to 180 degree bend follows a fixed 1-1/2 inch centre-line radius, so tighter corners are not possible with this tool.
How is the Ridgid 608 secured while making a bend?
The heavy-duty frame is designed to be held in a bench vice or clamped to a workbench for stable leverage during bending.
