Hossfeld Bender - Angle Iron Flange Out
Here we see how to set up and use the Hossfeld Universal Bender to bend a radius in angle iron with the flange (or leg) of the material facing out.
We are using a model No. 1 bender. This is the smaller of the two machines the Hossfeld Universal Bender Company makes. The model No. 2 bender is is about 25% larger than the smaller No. 1 but is virtually identical in setup and manual operations.
This video is intended as a reference for students learning to use this equipment in the Tyler MetalShop.
Take a look at a few of the other tutorial videos using this equipment:

    I worked for 2 abrasive manufacturers for over 40 years and have visited literally thousands of manufacturers fabricating many types of steel, stainless steel and fibreglass products. This video demonstrates various levels of grinding and finishing abrasives but should not be seen as a “how to” instructional on finishing light structural steel. I never saw anyone using non woven Velcro discs of fine grit orbital psa discs to blend welds on light angle iron. My recommendation would be to use a 60 grit flap discs for this application.

    Great tip about the safety guard - it needs to be aligned then secured toward the hand that will hold the grinder (on the side the handle is mounted on). It is there to protect the hand holding the grinder should you slip. To protect your eyes always wear ANSI protective eye shields/goggles when operating a grinder.

I just got today my first angle grinder from HF and despite seeing 7-8 videos, NONE of them explained as clear as you did on how to attach the different disks, paying attention to the flange nut orientation plus emphasizing on safety at the same time. Awesome. These prior UA-camrs should learn from you on how to make an excellent set up video. Just subscribed. Bravo Zulu!🙂

    Hi Rob. I am a university student attempting to build a sofa with a steel pipe frame. My university has one of these machines (Hossfeld Universal Bender) but no one seems to know how to use it, it’s been around so long. Would you be available to possibly do a video call with me and give me a tutorial on how to use it specifically for my needs? It would be greatly appreciated.

      Hey Taylor, The manual came with the machine. One of the past school technicians put together the binder and added to two colorized pages on the angle Iron flange out instructions. If you own a Hossfeld, I would call them up and see if they'll send you a copy. The official one is printed on sturdy stock and has good clear illustrations and images. Otherwise I have an OK scan I might be able to e-mail but the images are a bit blown out.

    I had a lot of old pipes and rebar to cut up and from what I read ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxPDBfLu68o58Aw85O_J-zIFfjJARBhp-3 this would be the tool for the job. Since I had never used one, I watched a couple of youtube videos and I'm so glad I did. Some really good safety tips, which I followed, and this tool did a splendid job. One good thing to know is the weight of the tool puts just about the right amount of pressure on the metal I was cutting, so I didn't have to use a lot of pressure, which is more likely to jam the tool. It made fast work of my job.

    If you have a good hard and wear resistant stone on a die grinder and a light touch, you can do tight spots, and it won't be too chewed up - might not even need a sanding pass if it's fine enough a stone
