The Monument Masters XV Copper Pipe Bender is a single sized pipe bender for 15mm copper pipe (0.7mm wall).
It has a number of advantages over a traditional combi 15mm pipe bender:
- Less fiddly – with the integrated hook and nylon guide, the integrated hook stop won’t flop from side to side and the guide(s) won’t fall out.
- Lighter in the hand than a combi - the XV weighs 1.5kg. The Monument combi weighs more than 4kg.
- Less cumbersome – you are only using a bender for the size of pipe being bent.
- Better sight lines – as the bend is in the same plane as the arms of the bender it is easier to line up by eye.
- Smaller than a combi - the XV has an arm length of 40cm approx. (a combi arm length is 65cm). The XV even fits in a tool bag.
