Rothenberger Die for TUBE BENDER MAXI, Cu, 1/2" - 23011

Die for TUBE BENDER MAXI: Precision in copper tube bending

The die for Rothenberger TUBE BENDER MAXI, model 23011, is a professional tool specifically designed for bending 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) copper tubes. This component integrates perfectly with the Rothenberger MAXI tube bender, ensuring precise and uniform bends without deforming or ovalizing the tube.

Technical characteristics of the 23011 die

Made with high-quality materials, this die ensures resistance and durability even after repeated use. Its structure has been designed to evenly distribute pressure during bending, preventing constrictions and maintaining the internal diameter of the tube. Exclusively compatible with 1/2 inch copper tubes, this die is an indispensable accessory for professionals who require precision in plumbing, heating, and refrigeration installations.

Practical applications in the plumbing and HVAC sectors

The 23011 die is used in numerous professional contexts, being particularly useful for:

• Installation of domestic and industrial plumbing systems
• Creation of radiator heating systems
• Assembly of air conditioning and refrigeration systems
• Creation of circuits for solar thermal panels
• Maintenance and repair of existing pipelines

Advantages of the Rothenberger 23011 die

Using the original Rothenberger die for the MAXI tube bender offers numerous benefits compared to generic alternatives:

• Superior bending precision with perfectly calibrated angles
• Significant reduction in the risk of tube crushing or deformation
• Increased execution speed thanks to perfect compatibility with the main tool
• Extended durability thanks to superior quality materials
• Professional results even for less experienced users

Optimal usage procedure

To obtain the best results with the 23011 die, it is advisable to follow some technical precautions: correctly position the copper tube in the die groove, ensuring it is well seated; apply gradual and constant pressure during bending; respect the recommended minimum bending radius to avoid deformation; ensure the tube is completely dry and free of residue before bending.

Maintenance and storage

To preserve the efficiency of the die over time, it is important to regularly clean it of any copper residues or impurities, store it in a dry environment to prevent oxidation, and periodically check that it shows no signs of wear or deformation. In case of intensive use, it is advisable to occasionally lubricate the moving parts with specific products recommended by the manufacturer.

Compatibility with other Rothenberger systems

The 23011 die is part of a modular system that allows expanding the functionality of the MAXI tube bender. Dies of different sizes can be purchased to cover the entire range of diameters commonly used in installations, creating a complete set to meet any professional need in the field of copper tube bending.
