West bender do you have .Not sure if I’m posting this in the correct place but…..what CLR is typically used for 3/4” tubing on nerf bars and bumpers? I’m getting ready to order a die for my bender but thought I’d check with the experts, before I regret a $400 purchase.
Thank you!!!
Pro-tools 105 hydraulic.West bender do you have .
Thank you!!! Glad I asked. I was thinking a 3”2.25” CLR
On a 3/4”, 3.5 CLR is the largest Pro-tools makes.Without measuring , I would say 4" .
Thank you for that info!! That helps a lot, knowing that make them on a regular basis.2 and 2.5” are the most common radius’s used for nerfs and bumpers. I build a hundred or more nerfs a year and those two cover 95% of what I bend.
How much would you charge for titan T4 nerf bars??2 and 2.5” are the most common radius’s used for nerfs and bumpers. I build a hundred or more nerfs a year and those two cover 95% of what I bend.
Mild steel approximately 80-90 set.How much would you charge for titan T4 nerf bars??
I'd rather use a worn out Diacro than a Hossfeld. no wonder you don't want to mess with them.We have 3 1/4" and 2 1/4" for our Hossfeld and honestly rarely mess with nerf bars any more as there is another guy locally who will make them for us and powder coated cheaper than I care to mess with them.

I like it for bigger diameter chrome-moly tubing, but it's difficult to make tight radius bends with it for things like nerf bars that are so easy to bend (CRS) anyhow. So, it sits here, bolted to the floor, taking up space by the Lincoln Welders (which you don't like either.)

They’re pretty easy to make on my Pro-Tools 105 bender. Since this post, I borrowed a friends 3” CLR die. I’m going to get 2.5 or 3 but wanted to try his first. They turned out good.I like it for bigger diameter chrome-moly tubing, but it's difficult to make tight radius bends with it for things like nerf bars that are so easy to bend (CRS) anyhow.
