i have done quite a bit of research on this. i found that the tighter the bend radius the more bucks the machine costs. you wont find a machine for 1.5" id copper tube for less than 7500 usd. and that machine will not bend tight bends. a mandrel pipe bender will bend that size down to 4x diameter. but that machine is big bucks. these machines are pedrick,pines,mega bender.medi bender. good luck

I'm looking for a copper tube bender capable of bending up to 1 1/2". Also needs to bend up to or even over 180 degrees.
I know I have seen them but can't find anything online. Anyone here use such a thing?0 -

180º
Josh, most of the benders that I have used don't like to go past 180º. If you go past 180º you can't get the tube out of the bender.There was an error rendering this rich post.
