PDF – 6″ – 20″ Pipe Bender

The Challenger 6-20 Pipe Bender is designed to bend steel pipe of various wall thickness and alloys. It is manufactured with the highest quality products to provide endurance in the most adverse environmental conditions. The bending force is provided through the use of four (4) hy- draulic cylinders, two of which operate the stiffback and two which operate the pin-up. The operator controls are located on the front of the machine above the control stand. It is equipped with a lifting tongue for ease in relocating the ma- chine as the bending process moves down the right-of-way.

CHALLENGER PIPE BENDING SETS

Our pipe bending sets are built to last.  For Hydraulic Pipe Bending Machines 6-20, 16-30, 22-36, 32-42, 48-60

Full bending sets, dies (only), and liner sets are available for use with all standard bending
machines, for pipe diameters from 4 inches to 60 inches.  Bending sets and dies are available bare
or with linings, to correspond to the coating on the pipe (see bending set recommendations below).
Liners can be supplied as spray, poured or strip urethane, copper, brass or stainless steel.

A separate bending set (or die only for the maximum diameter the bending machine will accept) is
required for each diameter of pipe.

Standard bending sets will accommodate pipe manufactured to API-5L standards.  Special order
bending sets and dies are available for non-standard diameters and/or pipe coatings.

Pipe Spring Shoe Bender 10-12 inch pipe
Challenger offer pipe spring shoe bender for your jobs.  The flexible membrane, combined with a hinging framework  allows the spring shoe bender to be used
on pipe from ten to twelve inches in diameter, with no additional parts required to change from one size
to another.  The materials used in the spring shoe bender allow bending of coated pipe without damage
to the coating.  Coated pipe that have been successfully bent with the spring shoe bender are rock
shield, FBE, Yellow Jacket, tapes and hot dope.

The flexible membrane, combined with a hinging framework  allows the spring shoe bender to be used
on pipe from two to eight inches in diameter, with no additional parts required to change from one size
to another.  The materials used in the spring shoe bender allow bending of coated pipe without damage
to the coating.  Coated pipe that have been successfully bent with the spring shoe bender are rock
shield, FBE, Yellow Jacket, tapes and hot dope.

 The Pneumatic Wedge internal Pipe Bending Mandrel was developed to preserve radial contour of pipe walls during pipe bending processes.  It applies powerful radial support to the inner walls, yet remains flexible  lengthwise to bend with the pipe.  It is  positioned and controlled manually within the  pipe by a reach rod.  It is particularly successful in providing a smooth bend with no “out-of-round”.

Standard and No Tack External Pipeline Clamps

Our external clamps are some of the best.  These clamps are the only external pipeline clamps which offer an optional selection in cross-member bar design, and
a choice of closure mechanisms.  With these options, the contractor can order the clamp which will best do his job.
