Homewerks Worldwide Llc 42TB14 Lever Tube Bender

Product Description

The HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE LLC 42TB14 is a lever-style tube bender designed to produce clean, kink-free bends in soft tubing without collapsing the tube wall. It handles three common outside diameter sizes: 1/4 inch, 5/16 inch, and 3/8 inch OD. The lever-action mechanism gives the installer mechanical advantage for controlled, repeatable bends on copper, aluminum, and other soft tubing materials. HVAC technicians, refrigeration mechanics, and plumbers reach for this tool when forming line sets, refrigerant tubing runs, and supply lines in tight spaces where pre-bent fittings are not practical.

The 42TB14 is suited for residential and light commercial work where soft tubing must be routed around framing, mechanical equipment, or structural obstacles. Typical applications include refrigerant line forming during equipment installation or replacement, plumbing supply rough-in, and any task requiring precise directional changes in small-diameter soft tubing. It is a hand-carried field tool that works without a vise or fixed mounting point, making it practical for service calls and new construction alike.

Key Features

• Lever-action design provides controlled mechanical advantage for consistent, repeatable bends
• Bends 1/4 inch, 5/16 inch, and 3/8 inch OD soft tubing in a single tool
• Kink-free bending preserves full tube bore and flow capacity
• Portable hand tool — no bench mounting or vise required
• Sold individually (unit of measure: EA)

Compatibility

Designed for use with soft tubing in 1/4 inch, 5/16 inch, and 3/8 inch outside diameter sizes, as commonly used in residential and light commercial HVAC refrigerant lines and plumbing supply applications.

Installation Notes

A licensed HVAC technician or plumber should confirm tubing material compatibility before bending refrigerant or pressurized lines. When bending refrigerant tubing, ensure the system is fully recovered and depressurized before cutting or reshaping any line. Position the tubing fully seated in the correct size groove before applying lever pressure to avoid tube deformation. Follow applicable mechanical and plumbing codes for minimum bend radius requirements on pressurized tubing runs.
