Jb Industries bs-10 Bending Spring 5/8 Inch Od Tubing

Product Description

The JB INDUSTRIES bs-10 is a bending spring designed for shaping 5/8 inch OD tubing without kinking or collapsing the tube wall. Spring-type benders like the bs-10 are the standard hand tool for HVAC and refrigeration technicians who need to form controlled bends in soft tubing on the job. The coiled spring slips over or inside the tubing and supports the tube wall evenly through the bend, making it especially useful when working in tight spaces or when forming irregular angles that fixed-radius benders cannot accommodate.

The bs-10 is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing applications where soft copper, aluminum, brass, or steel tubing must be routed around obstacles or transitioned between components. Technicians reach for a bending spring when the bend radius is variable or when a mechanical tube bender is impractical in a confined space. The tool works on 5/8 inch OD tubing, which is a common size in refrigerant line sets and hydronic systems.

Key Features

• Fits 5/8 inch OD tubing for a precise, controlled bend
• Spring-type design supports the tube wall and prevents kinking
• Compatible with soft copper, aluminum, brass, and steel tubing
• Suited for irregular and variable-radius bends where fixed benders cannot be used
• Compact form factor works in confined spaces and tight installations

Compatibility

Designed for use with 5/8 inch OD soft copper, aluminum, brass, and steel tubing commonly found in HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing installations.

Installation Notes

Bending springs are typically used by HVAC technicians, refrigeration mechanics, and plumbers during line routing and tubing fabrication. Slide the spring over or inside the tubing at the intended bend location before applying hand pressure. Work the bend gradually to avoid over-stressing the tubing wall. Always verify that the completed bend meets local mechanical and refrigerant piping code requirements before charging or pressurizing the system.
