Short description

The YATO YT-21860 line set bender kit is intended for precise forming of copper and aluminium tubes in refrigeration, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Flexible PE rods are inserted into the tubes before bending, allowing bending without deformation or wall flattening. The kit includes four rods of different diameters — each 4 m long — enabling safe, accurate tube handling at any installation stage.

Key features

• Designed for bending tubes in cooling and air-conditioning systems (copper and aluminium)

• Prevents tube flattening or cracking during bending

• Flexible PE rods support the tube interior along the full length

• Set includes 4 rods for 6.35 mm, 9.53 mm, 12.7 mm and 15.88 mm diameters

• Each rod 4 m long — process full-length lines without cutting

• Enables cold bending without heating the tube with a torch

• Suitable for HVAC, heat pumps, refrigeration and display cases

• Resistant to oils and refrigerants

• Easy to use — just insert the rod into the tube before bending

Why buy / what makes it different?

This YATO kit lets you bend copper or aluminium tubes safely without cracks or internal deformation — a common issue when bending without an internal support. Compared with metal springs, PE rods are lighter, won’t score the inner surface and offer greater flexibility. An essential tool for refrigeration, A/C and heat-pump installers who need precise, reliable bends with a professional finish.

Included in the set

• 4× PE rods (4 m each):

  • Ø6.35 mm (1/4")

  • Ø9.53 mm (3/8")

  • Ø12.7 mm (1/2")

  • Ø15.88 mm (5/8")
