This guide is for anyone needing to bend metal for fabrication, repair, or artistic projects. The Universal Bender UB-100 offers precise bends up to 120 degrees with ease, making it ideal for both professionals and hobbyists. However, it's important to note that while versatile, its capacity is limited by the material type and thickness.

The UB-100 can bend flat, square, round, and angle steel. The maximum capacity varies based on whether the steel is cold or warm and the specific cross-section.
Select the die plate that corresponds to the fillet radius you want to achieve for your bend. The correct die plate ensures a clean and accurate bend.
Keep the bender clean, lubricate moving parts regularly, and store it in a dry location to prevent rust. Inspect die plates for wear and tear.
The UB-100 can achieve bends up to 120 degrees.
The handle is 700mm long.
The material stop is used to ensure consistent positioning of the material, which is critical for repetitive bends.
While robust, the UB-100 is more suited for hobbyist and smaller-scale fabrication. For heavy-duty industrial use, consider a more specialized machine.
Check the mounting, ensure all moving parts are lubricated, and that the material is correctly positioned. Refer to the troubleshooting section of this guide if the problem persists.
Check and adjust the position stops and adjustment limits. Ensure the material is correctly positioned in the die plate.
Lubricate the moving parts of the bender, including the pivot points and the handle mechanism.
Ensure the material is firmly seated against the material stop and that the die plate is appropriate for the material type and thickness.
Check and tighten the mounting bolts. Ensure that the workbench or surface is level and can support the force applied during bending.
