Is this tube bender capable of bending 7/8" X 1/16" wall stainless tube

If it is considered soft tubing it should bend it. It will not bend hard tubing. Soft tubing comes in a role, hard tubing comes in strait lengths.

It is definitely only designed for copper tubing so I would have to say no. It is fairly strong but all the mandrel parts are plastic. I feel that even thin wall SS tube might be a bit much for it.

Yes you can bend it. If you use a needle nose pliers you can bend a very small radius. It has no spring tention.

Yes, the soaker hose can bend. You can lay it out straight, in a curve, or in a circle.

Very flexible. You can bent this without problem. You can do this practically 180 degree

I have not used the vacuum tube that you are referring to but the port is ~1" therefore it should work. The port exits towards the rear with a ~30 bend. I think that that port angle is adjustable but I am not 100% sure of that.

Unknown. Mine was so visably bent out of shape I returned it without attempting to use it.

The kit comes with 3/8,1/2,5/8,3/4,7/8,1 1/8 expander's. Will not expand hard copper unless it's annealed first. I use this often and very seldom use fittings anymore ..Recommend the bender also..Great stuff. It has paid for itself in fittings and silfoss.

I've used it for soft drawn copper up to 7/8", and 3/4" thinwall aluminum with success. The bending collars are made of heavy plastic and stood up to the copper and aluminum. You may be able to bend thinwall stainless but due to the hand actuated ratchet and plastic collars anything larger than 1/2" would be too much stress.

Yes,This has a slight bending ability. But not enough to bend on a curve. Bending might break the seal inside. Contact the manufacturer for these type of questions.

It will bend. I have used these for several years and started because of the cost. It was low cost and served its purpose. Life span seems to be 2-3 years so you will probably have to replace. Thus cost has to be considered.

You know I'm not sure. I would think you could bend it slightly if it didn't fit perfectly. It seemed a pretty square fit. It just lays over the surface and held with there with gravity.

No, I have bent some 1/8 by 1 pieces but even that wasn't very easy or very clean. I doubt it would ever bend a 6 inch wide piece properly.

I have no experience attempting to bend it, but I imagine that you could bend it. It wouldn't be easy to bend and it would be even less easy to unbend.

It is about 6 inches below the corrugated tube that you can bend.. It is grey in colour press that for off or on.This is one of the best lamps I have had. Good Luck

Like any vinyl or rubber tubing, it can be bent but the radius of the bend grows larger as the bend approaches 90 degrees or greater. A 90 degree turn would probably be 3 or 4 inches from start to finish without a crimp.

the addon is used to aid in the bending near a wall to get your proper bend usually bending down or close to your wall .here is a link to part of your question .I don't believe it will bend plumbing copper due to it being so rigid without it crimping it in some manner. I have this tool to use on hvac copper which is soft and not as thin.Not saying it can't be done though. Tube Bender Reverse Adaptor

1/16" easily bend to a circle, but I didn't bend the 1/8" completely because the resistance seemed too great. I agree with Tiffany Oliveras.
