Sick of hammering and trying to bend flat bar and round bar over the edge of your vice or bench? TMR's Machete Bender is the fix! It will instantly become the most versatile tool in your fabrication arsenal! 


  • CNC machined in house. 
  • Powder coated and black oxide coated for outstanding looks and corrosion resistance.
  • Bends up to 3/8" steel round bar and up to 1/4" x 1" steel flat bar.
  • Designed to be mounted in a bench vise.
  • Common uses include exhaust hangers, hooks, custom brackets, fender hangers, modifying existing tabs, etc.
  • All dowel pins are 1/2" for max beef!
  • Commonly referred to as a manual flat bar bender, or manual rod bender
  • For smooth material only. Do not use the Machete Bender to bend rebar or any ribbed, textured, or knurled material; these surfaces can catch on and break the dowel pins.

We're wheelers too - we back every product with the TMR Customs quality guarantee. Our products are designed to be the ultimate in durability and withstand years of abuse. So go ahead and abuse them in the dirt and rocks - just as they were intended!

DESIGNED, MANUFACTURED AND TESTED BY TRUE OFF ROAD ENTHUSIASTS!

    Bigger?

    Do you have a bender that does 2" instead of just 1"?

    Yes, the "Machete XL" can bend up to 2" tall flat bar using the optional round dies.
