Tubing Bender for 5/16 Inch Tubing
The Westward 3CYU7 is a manual tubing bender designed for electricians and HVAC technicians who need to shape 5/16 inch outside diameter tubing. It handles round aluminium, copper, brass, stainless steel and thin wall steel. Calibrated angle markings from 0 to 180 degrees in 15 degree increments allow repeatable bends without a separate protractor.
Replaces Improvised Bending Methods
This tool replaces makeshift bending with a pipe or vice when accurate, kink free curves are required in soft copper, aluminium or brass tubing. The jump is worth it when a job demands consistent centreline radius bends up to 180 degrees and the installer wants calibrated feedback on every bend without guessing the angle.
Manual Operation with 11/16 Inch Centreline Radius
The bender uses a manual mechanism with swivel handles and a fixed centreline bend radius of 11/16 inch. This radius limits the tightness of any bend regardless of material. The 10 inch overall length provides leverage but also sets the minimum workspace needed. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item
What tubing outside diameter does the Westward 3CYU7 bender accept?
The tool is calibrated for 5/16 in outside diameter round tubing.
How do you align the bend correctly with the calibrated angle markings?
Position the tube in the bender, line up the zero mark with your start point, then pull the swivel handles until the pointer reaches the desired angle up to 180 degrees.
Which parts of the bender contact the tube and might wear over time?
The forming shoe and swivel handle pivots contact the tube directly; inspect them for deformation or looseness after repeated use on stainless steel or brass.
