The JMR Electric/Hydraulic Tube Bender (TBH-250) bends round tube, square tube and pipe in mild steel, DOM, 4130 chromoly, Docol, stainless and aluminum, with no shop air needed. It plugs into standard 110V power and bends up to 2-1/2" OD x .120" wall round tube, 2" x .250" wall mild steel, and 2" Schedule 40 pipe. See our capacity charts for full size and wall ratings.

FASTER THAN AIR/HYDRAULIC

The electric pump bends about 3x faster than an air/hydraulic bender. The powered cylinder return pulls the ram back for you, so you spend less time between bends. It's the right choice if you bend a lot of parts or don't have a compressor big enough for an air/hydraulic pump.

VARIABLE FLOW CONTROL

Variable flow control lets you slow down to sneak up on an angle or speed up through a long bend. A degree wheel is included for accurate, repeatable angles from part to part.

CYLINDER BUILT IN-HOUSE

We build the double-acting hydraulic cylinder ourselves, made for tube bending. Choose the optional 90° cylinder and its longer stroke makes a full 90° bend in one pass. With the right die, it bends to 180°.

SAME HEAD, SAME DIES

The TBH-250 uses the same bender head, high-strength arms, heat-treated pins and center pivot bushings as every JMR bender. All JMR tube, pipe and square die sets fit it, so your dies carry over if you're stepping up from a manual or air/hydraulic bender.

MADE IN USA, STOCKED IN PASO ROBLES

We build and stock the TBH-250 in our Paso Robles, California shop, so it ships from inventory instead of a lead-time list. It mounts on a stand or a receiver hitch, including the hitch on our fabrication tables. Die sets and mounting are sold separately, or get a complete setup with dies in our Bender Packages.

Ive never used a tube bender before and found this to be very simple yet very powerful in what we needed in our shop. Great machine. Our guys loved the plug and play.

Bender was just as describe. Shipping was fast. Had a small issue which was caused by me. A phone call and everything was resolved. Super easy customer service and I talked to a REAL person that was able to answer any questions I had.

Awesome machine

I have used an old JMR bender at work for years so when the time came to buy one I picked what I was used to and I am glad I made that choice. I just bent up my first project on my new JMR bender ( chromoly sand car backhalf) and it worked flawlessly, this is a quality built piece of equipment and I am proud to own one.

Awesome product and great company

Ordered a package deal a few months back but unfortunately it was lost in transit. They got me another one sent as soon as the could. So far it's been working great, very well made and just a overall great product. I'm glad after doing months world research and talking to them on the phone I made the decision to go with JMR.

Money maker not poser faker

I bought this bender over 15 years ago and use it in our full time commercial fabrication shop almost every day. It has made me more money per $ spent than ANY other tool I have bought in 20+ years in business. Beware of the copy cat fakes they are SHIT!!!! There is NO other company that has the fabrication knowledge that JMR does PERIOD!!!!

What power does it need?
A standard 110V outlet. A 220V 50Hz version is available for international customers as well.
Does it arrive ready to bend?
Yes. It ships as a complete unit with the motor, pump, hoses and rolling stand, full of hydraulic fluid with the lines bled. Plug it in and add a die set.
How fast is it?
About 3 times the speed of our air/hydraulic bender, and up to 8x the speed of others. The variable control valve also lets you slow down and creep up on an angle.
What is the difference between the standard and 90 degree cylinder?
The 90 degree cylinder is longer and makes a full 90 degree bend in one stroke. Both cylinders bend to 180 degrees.
Are dies included?
Only if you choose the 3 die set option, which adds 1", 1-1/2" and 1-3/4" 120 degree die sets. Otherwise die sets are sold separately, and any JMR die set fits.
What warranty does it come with?
A 1-year limited warranty.

Need dies?

Dies are sold separately, so you only buy the sizes you need. Every JMR die fits every JMR bender, manual or hydraulic, and they're in stock and ready to ship.
