Pipe Bending Machine

PIPE BENDING MACHINES
"STANDARD"
For pipe from 6" (152 mm) to 36" (914 mm)
Hydraulic controls give one operator

complete command of all machine operations
from a convenient platform.
The machine frame is constructed from

selected quality steel to give long life without
fatigue failure.
Hydraulically driven winch moves the pipe

through the machine. Pipe moves easily on
contoured rollers.
Unitized construction makes for easy

maintenance and repairs.
Calibrated stiff back indicator rod allows the

operator to make consistently uniform bends.
Pin-Up clamp automatically grips the pipe to
prevent distortion. This feature is not used on
6-20 size pipe bender.
Conversion to another pipe size within the
machine range is made simply by fitting an
alternative bending set.
Any CRC-Evans Pipe Bending Machine, in
good condition, is capable of bending all
grades of currently available API-5L pipe
within its range.
The towing eye is attached to the hydraulically

actuated stiff back and may be raised and
lowered to facilitate attachment to the towing
tractor.
The machine may be towed on the right-ofway by a suitable tractor, normally the side
boom feeding the pipe to the bending
machine.
For each pipe size to be bent, a Bending Set, a
Bending Die, a Mandrel, and a Bending Belt
are required.

Based on 85% efficiency and maximum strength = 1. 2 x X# x 1000.

Blank spaces indicate unlimited wall thickness.
These figures are recommended only and do not constitute a warranty.
All bends shown include the use of CRC-Evans Bending Mandrels. The figures given are "average". They will vary due to
The wall thickness of the pipe.
The actual (as opposed to the nominal) yield of the pipe.
Skill of the operator in handling the bending machine and the mandrel.
The origin of the pipe (pipe mill, plate mill, etc.) and quality of the pipe.
The type of pipe. Spiral seam pipe will normally accept only 75% of the recommended bend.
The type of die and/or bending set being used (e.g., polyurethane lining or special radius dies).
An unbent end (tangent) is produced at each end of the pipe where the pipe contacts the stiff back Normal unbend tangent for PB 6-20 is 5 feet;
PB 16-30 and PB 22-36 is 6-1/2 feet.
Pipe is generally referred to by Nominal Pipe Size, but it will be noted that on sizes up to 12", the actual outside diameter is somewhat greater
than the nominal size.
