Hossfeld Bender - Angle Iron Flange Out
Here we see how to set up and use the Hossfeld Universal Bender to bend a radius in angle iron with the flange (or leg) of the material facing out.
We are using a model No. 1 bender. This is the smaller of the two machines the Hossfeld Universal Bender Company makes. The model No. 2 bender is is about 25% larger than the smaller No. 1 but is virtually identical in setup and manual operations.
This video is intended as a reference for students learning to use this equipment in the Tyler MetalShop.
Take a look at a few of the other tutorial videos using this equipment:
