00:00:10,590 --> 00:00:11,869
In the short video, I'm going

2
00:00:11,970 --> 00:00:15,009
to introduce you to the pipe bender,

3
00:00:15,109 --> 00:00:18,409
hydraulic pipe bender to produce a 90

4
00:00:18,510 --> 00:00:21,020
degree pulled bend. The pipe bender

5
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:25,190
consists of a pressure relief, the main

6
00:00:25,290 --> 00:00:29,510
body, the head of the bender,

7
00:00:29,610 --> 00:00:36,770
the hydraulic ram, a pipe former,

8
00:00:36,869 --> 00:00:42,319
two dollies and two dolly pins.

9
00:00:42,419 --> 00:00:43,520
I'm going to move on to marking

10
00:00:43,619 --> 00:00:46,069
the pipe. Today, we're going to bend

11
00:00:46,169 --> 00:00:49,010
some three quarter inch pipe with

12
00:00:49,110 --> 00:00:51,479
a nominal bore of 20 millimeters.

13
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,050
To produce a 90 degree bend we need

14
00:00:54,150 --> 00:00:57,740
to deduct 20 millimeters of the required

15
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:03,409
length or the overall length. So I'm

16
00:01:03,509 --> 00:01:05,810
going to mark the pipe at 250

17
00:01:05,910 --> 00:01:09,410
millimeters, this will give us

18
00:01:09,510 --> 00:01:12,239
an overall length of 270. We're going

19
00:01:12,339 --> 00:01:14,529
to load the pipe into the pipe bender.

20
00:01:15,690 --> 00:01:17,330
Before I do that, I'm just going to make

21
00:01:17,430 --> 00:01:18,500
sure the dollies are in the correct

22
00:01:18,599 --> 00:01:21,300
position for three quarter inch pipe.

23
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:27,230
The dolly pins are secure and fully

24
00:01:27,330 --> 00:01:33,040
engaged into the hole. I then get

25
00:01:33,139 --> 00:01:36,250
my pipe making sure the chalk mark

26
00:01:36,349 --> 00:01:41,510
I marked is in line with the former,

27
00:01:43,279 --> 00:01:46,330
I will hold that in position and start

28
00:01:46,430 --> 00:01:57,279
to pump. So I'm just going to get

29
00:01:57,379 --> 00:02:05,760
my plate square To check the pipe

30
00:02:05,860 --> 00:02:08,759
is at 90 degrees, just making sure

31
00:02:08,860 --> 00:02:11,279
the square is in line with the pipe

32
00:02:11,380 --> 00:02:13,799
and bending; the pipe is close to 90

33
00:02:13,899 --> 00:02:16,229
degrees. So I'm going to release

34
00:02:16,330 --> 00:02:19,019
the pressure, which will give us

35
00:02:19,119 --> 00:02:24,909
some spring back and I will check

36
00:02:25,009 --> 00:02:30,000
the pipe to make sure it is 90 degrees

37
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,839
by removing it from the pipe bender.

38
00:02:32,940 --> 00:02:34,940
I'm going to remove the dolly pins

39
00:02:37,289 --> 00:02:39,909
and lift the head of the bender,

40
00:02:40,009 --> 00:02:45,619
going to remove the pipe and do a final

41
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:50,569
check using the plate square to make

42
00:02:50,669 --> 00:02:56,000
sure the pipe is 90 degrees. As you can

43
00:02:56,100 --> 00:02:59,309
see, the pipe is formed a perfect 90

44
00:02:59,309 --> 00:02:59,729
degree.
