Pvc bender, bend pvc fast portability of propane
The Hotbend PVC Bender is a revolutionary tool to bend all sizes of PVC conduit - Schedule 40 & 80 - Up to 8" in diameter. It is the most portable, versatile tool to bend PVC Pipe - Bar none!
Unlike hot boxes, the Hotbend heat gun can go in the trench far from electrical outlets where you need to work. Furthermore, you can change existing bends (try to get a bent piece of pipe in your oven!).
This is no torch: Hotbend uses a four phase cycle that not only produces heat, but also converts some of the heat to kinetic energy. The fan shaped heat of combustion has a speed exceeding 100 MPH mixing immediately with the surrounding air to create a uniform blast of heat at 12,000 BTU. The combination of heat and velocity induces forced convection, which helps heat the pipe at lower temperatures thus eliminating damage to the pipe's surface.
Everything in the photo is included; The gun, guard, the 25' hose, the regulator and carrying case. This gun has been used but not abused. It has some scratches on the gun, and case, and it is in perfect working order.
