The BendPak 1302BAS-302 represents the gold standard in semi-automatic exhaust pipe benders, engineered for professional fabrication shops that demand speed, precision, and exceptional consistency. This double-ended expander system combines 3-button semi-automatic bending controls with a powerful 5 HP motor and 60,000 lbs. of cylinder force to handle tubes up to 3" diameter with .095 wall thickness. Equipped with the comprehensive Deluxe 302 Tooling Package (featuring dies in 1.5", 1.75", 1.625", 2", 2.25", and 2.5" sizes), this bender delivers production-level throughput while maintaining the accuracy needed for OE-quality exhaust systems.
Built on a rigid 6" x 6" x 3/8" welded-steel tube frame with commercial-grade hydraulic cylinders featuring chrome-molly shafts conforming to ANSI 92.2 standards, the 1302BAS-302 is engineered for decades of dependable service. The side-loading design features two separate end-finishing units at the rear for all necessary flaring and expanding operations, plus a high-speed clampless swager and internal expander for complete exhaust fabrication capability in one compact footprint.
Speed and Consistency Through Semi-Automatic Operation
Time is money in a high-volume exhaust shop. The 1302BAS series is engineered to expedite your bending process with semi-automatic controls that deliver repeatable, consistent bends every time. The convenient 3-button control system allows you to operate the bender in fully automatic or manual mode, giving you complete control over the bending cycle. For added flexibility, remote foot-operated controls are included standard, allowing long-distance operation without tying up your hands.
The dual-function, end-finishing unit provides extremely precise OE expansions and flares, ensuring your custom exhaust work meets or exceeds factory specifications. The space-saving side-loading swager design keeps your work area organized and accessible, while the manual knee lever expander controls give you tactile feedback during critical finishing operations.
Quick-Change Tooling System for Maximum Productivity
Waiting for die changes kills productivity. That's why BendPak engineered the 1302BAS-302 with quick-release bending dies and a revolutionary twist-lock tooling system that dramatically reduces setup times. The easy-to-use drop-in collar makes swaging operations quick and efficient—simply drop in the collar and you're ready to go. No fumbling with complicated setups or alignment procedures.
All bending dies come complete as quick-release units, and the bending heads are precision ground to within .002" for exceptional accuracy. The heat-treated tooling ensures greater service life even under demanding production schedules. With simple, twistable locks and quick-change capabilities, you'll be cycling through bending projects faster than your competitors. Convenient tool trays keep your dies organized and within easy reach.
180° Bending Capacity with 5" Radius Precision
Deep bends are critical for complex exhaust routing. The 1302BAS-302 delivers exceptional bending capacity with a maximum 5" (127 mm) radius and minimum 3.3" (89 mm) radius, giving you the flexibility to tackle virtually any exhaust design. Need to create a U-shape? Our benders handle it with ease, perfectly executing bends on the designed radius without pipe sticking or hang-ups.
The unique relief cut design keeps a uniform bend throughout the entire bend cycle, preventing excessive crimping or deformation that costs you money and wastes precious time. If you need to bend more than 170°, ask about our optional 180° dies. The pass-through cylinder stem design passes completely through the primary frame, ensuring perfectly straight, consistent bends without deflection. The one-piece barrel ensures that the bending gates stay perfectly aligned with the ram throughout every bend cycle.
Industrial-Grade Hydraulics Built to Last
At the heart of the 1302BAS-302 is a robust hydraulic system designed for decades of professional use. The 60,000 lbs. top cylinder force provides more than enough power to bend 3" tubing with .095 wall thickness, while the 2.5" oversized barrel shafts deliver maximum dependability with minimum maintenance. All cylinders feature chrome-molly shafts conforming to ANSI 92.2 standards, ensuring consistent performance under heavy loads.
The strong 5 HP energy-efficient motor (rated at 208-230 VAC / 60 Hz / 1 PH) drives a direct-drive, high-speed 4 gpm pump for rapid cycle times. The large-capacity fluid reservoir keeps hydraulic oil running cooler and prevents contamination, while the canister hydraulic filter keeps the oil clean for extended component life. Oil sight-gauges allow you to visually inspect oil levels at a glance.
The single enclosed bottom cylinder applies pressure evenly to the back gates and, because it's hidden beneath the frame, doesn't interfere with tubing during operation. Standard grease fittings allow for simple lubrication, and the integrated power-relief control valve protects the system from overpressure conditions. Pressure gauges positioned on the front panel let you know exactly what the system pressures are at all times.
Professional Features for Shop Efficiency
Every detail of the 1302BAS-302 is engineered to make your work faster, cleaner, and more profitable. The enclosed controls keep your bending area clutter-free and protect electrical components from metal shavings and debris. The NEMA-rated on/off switch box incorporates overload relays that automatically disrupt the power supply should an unforeseen over-current situation occur, protecting your investment.
An adjustable pressure valve is located right up front for easy access, allowing you to dial in the perfect pressure for each job. Industrial-grade casters help you easily move the bender around your shop despite its substantial 1,362 lbs. weight. The footprint measures just 41" wide x 64" deep x 26" high, making it surprisingly compact for its capability.
