Yellow Jacket 60335 Bending Mandrel 3/4 Inch Od

Product Description

The YELLOW JACKET 60335 is a 3/4 inch OD bending mandrel designed for one-hand operation when working with soft copper and soft aluminum tubing ranging from 1/4 inch to 7/8 inch OD. This tool allows HVAC and refrigeration technicians to form clean, kink-free bends in soft tubing without the need for a two-handed bender or a bench-mounted tool. The compact mandrel design supports controlled, precise bending in tight spaces, making it a practical addition to a field service kit. Hard copper tubing must be annealed before use with this mandrel to prevent cracking or deformation during the bend.

This mandrel is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC and refrigeration service work where soft copper or soft aluminum line sets and coil connections require field bending. It is particularly useful during installation or repair of refrigerant lines, evaporator coil connections, and similar copper tubing applications where a portable, one-hand bending tool speeds up the workflow. The 60335 is intended for use by licensed HVAC and refrigeration technicians performing field service and installation tasks.

Key Features

• Fits tubing OD range from 1/4 inch to 7/8 inch for versatile field use
• One-hand operation design for efficient bending in confined spaces
• Compatible with soft copper and soft aluminum tubing
• Hard copper must be annealed prior to bending to avoid damage
• 3/4 inch OD mandrel provides the reference bend radius for the specified tube size

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/4 inch to 7/8 inch OD soft copper and soft aluminum tubing. Hard copper tubing must be annealed before bending. This mandrel replaces YELLOW JACKET part number 63335.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by HVAC and refrigeration technicians during installation and service of copper refrigerant or fluid lines. Before bending any tubing that is part of a charged or pressurized system, recover refrigerant and depressurize the line per applicable safety procedures. Ensure tubing is properly supported and free of internal obstructions before forming bends. Hard copper tubing must be fully annealed to avoid cracking — do not attempt to bend hard-drawn copper with this mandrel without that step.
