Bernardo Hydraulic Pipe Bender HRB 30 S
The Bernardo HRB 30 S Hydraulic Pipe Bender is a professional bender with more power and capacity than the HRB 20 S model, suitable for intensive work in workshops and on construction sites. With a capacity of up to 3” outer diameter, it is suitable for steel, gas, water, and heating pipes, as well as coated copper pipes. The 20-ton hydraulic system and folding frame ensure efficiency and speed of operation, while the tripod provides stability during processing. The included equipment comprises bending dies from 1/2” to 3”, covering the main professional needs. It allows bends up to 90° to be made, even with high wall thicknesses. A robust machine, perfect for plumbers, installers, and metal fabrication companies looking for a high-performance solution.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the HRB 30 S also work with stainless steel and aluminum pipes?
Yes — with appropriate dies. For stainless steel, the required force increases by 30–50% compared to mild steel: check that the remaining capacity of the hydraulic cylinder is sufficient for the specific diameter and thickness. For aluminum, the force is reduced. Each material requires the correct diameter die — the same Ø 50 mm pipe in copper, steel, and stainless steel uses the same die but with a different elastic springback angle.
Are bending dies of different radii included or separate?
The basic dies for the most common diameters are included in the standard equipment of the HRB 30 S. For additional diameters or bending radii different from the standard ones, the dies can be ordered separately. Original spare parts available with 3–5 working days shipping. Customer support in Italian available.
The folding frame of the HRB 30 S — what is its advantage?
The folding frame allows the machine to be brought to the workplace (construction site, external workshop) and reduces bulk during transport and storage. In the working position, the frame locks rigidly — rigidity is not compromised compared to a fixed frame. Reduced weight and dimensions facilitate transport in a van.
Are spare parts and assistance available?
