That must be some kind of articulating oriface in the end that make the bend?? Then it is forcing the tube from the rear??? I wonder how accurate and repeatable it would be. Could make some bad a$$ variable radii headers with it.

You'd need a much bigger machine! :)

It's hard to tell in the video but the material that they are bending looks pretty stout. I would think it would do header tubing without a problem...

I did a little research, and it looks like capacity is 3/4" to 2 3/8". So exhaust and cage tubing would be right up its alley. Pretty cool stuff!

I'm not sure how these benders work, but I just toured the Arctic Cat factory last Friday and they use these to do all of their bending.

WOW! That has to be the wickedest tubing bender ever! I'd really like to see it internally.
