Irwin HILGLM Hilmor Glm Pipe Bender including The Guides & Box Hilglm, 15mm-22mm

Product Information

When initially launched on the UK market Monument ensured that the hook stop was redesigned so as to not mark the pipe. Rubber feet are available code 2607F which fit the 1215K, 1315XVE, 1315Longarm, 1222G, 1322Extended. Used for copper up to 22mm and stainless steel up to 15mm this comes complete with formers and guides for 15/22mm.

First models of the new pipe bender were designed and 3D printed in the engineering suite at Monument. Goods remain the property of Sitebox Ltd until paid for in full as per our full terms and conditions.If you’re working with microbore, unfortunately, there isn’t a set from Hilmore currently available in the UK. Close the Arms of the benders and continue until the required bend angle is achieved, rotate the lever back to the start angle to release the two Arms. Peter remained working at Hilmor until 1987, working as a sales engineer and travelling around Britain and abroad for sales and exhibitions. We have included bending angles of 30 45 60 and 90 degrees on the XV and XVL 15mm versions and an additional 75 degree angle on the 22mm version; these are easily visible on the Former of each bender.

As for the actual bender itself it's light, far lighter than the old hilmor I had which lasted years so hopefully this one will too. In his lunch hours he would sometimes cycle up to the new development of housing at Shephall to check on the progress of the building of his future house.

Before you remove the pipe from the Former, view your bend angle; remove the pipe if it is correct, or if necessary, reapply the Lever Arm and increase the bend angle. The traditional combi bender such as the Hilmor ® GLM or Irwin ® GLM or Monument ® MON2600 are offset from the bending plane.
