Formers
or
shoes
on a
dual
pipe
bender

The former,
also known
as the shoe,
is where the
pipe is laid
to be bent.
The size of
the former
must match
the diameter
of the pipe to
help keep its
shape.

The dual
pipe bender
has two
formers,
most
commonly
sized 15mm
(0.6″) and
22mm (0.8″),
but these can
vary.

Formers
often have
markings
along them
to indicate
where to rest
the pipe, and
angle
markings to
aid the user
with their
calculations.

The
markings
can vary
between
pipe
benders,
some having
different
angle
markings,
but the 90

marking is
standard for
most pipe
benders.
This is
because 90
degree
bends are
used often in
both
electrical and
plumbing
installations.

Guides
on a
dual
pipe
bender

The guide is
a solid piece
of metal,
separate
from the dual
pipe bender.
It is inserted

being
exerted and
to stop the
pipe from

crushed.

Like the
former, its
one side is
shaped and
sized to
match the
pipe
diameter, to
help the pipe
keep its
shape.

Holding
clamps
on a
dual
pipe
bender

The holding
clamps are
hooks which
clip around
the pipe to
hold it in
place during
bending.
These, too,
have to fit the
pipe to make
sure that it
moves as
