Rothenberger Die for TUBE BENDER MAXI, Cu, 3/8' - 23010

Features of the Die for TUBE BENDER MAXI

The Rothenberger die for TUBE BENDER MAXI, model Cu 3/8 (code 23010), is an essential component for professionals who need to bend copper tubes with precision and reliability. Designed specifically for 3/8 inch copper tubes (equivalent to approximately 9.5 mm), this die integrates perfectly with Rothenberger's TUBE BENDER MAXI bender, ensuring precise and deformation-free bends.

Technical specifications

The die is made of high-quality steel, heat-treated to ensure strength and durability over time, even under intensive use. Its ergonomic design allows for easy insertion and removal from the main tube bender, optimizing working times. The surface of the die has been designed to minimize friction with the copper tube, reducing the risk of scratches or marks on the material's surface during the bending operation.

Practical applications

This die is used in numerous professional sectors, proving indispensable for:

• Installation and maintenance of residential and commercial plumbing systems
• Creation of heating and air conditioning systems
• Installation of gas systems compliant with regulations
• Refrigeration work and cooling systems
• Repairs and modifications of existing pipelines

Operational advantages

The use of the Rothenberger 23010 die offers numerous benefits during bending operations:

• Precision in bends with angles up to 180°
• Elimination of the need for additional fittings, reducing potential leakage points
• Time and material savings thanks to the possibility of creating customized bends
• Reduction of mechanical stress on the tube, preserving its structural integrity
• Compatibility with the Rothenberger modular system, which allows different dies to be used with the same bender

Tips for optimal use

To achieve the best results with this die, it is advisable to use annealed or semi-hard copper tubes. Bending will be easier and more precise if the tube is kept clean and free from preliminary deformations. It is important to ensure that the tube diameter exactly matches the die's specifications (3/8) to avoid unwanted deformations or ovalization during bending.

Maintenance and storage

The Rothenberger die requires minimal maintenance to maintain its performance over time. It is advisable to regularly clean the contact surface with the tube, removing any material residues or dust. After use, it is appropriate to apply a light layer of protective oil to prevent oxidation. Ideal storage is in a dry environment, preferably in the original Rothenberger case along with the other components of the TUBE BENDER MAXI system.

Compatibility with other systems

This die has been designed specifically for Rothenberger's TUBE BENDER MAXI bender, thus ensuring maximum efficiency and precision. Use with other brands of benders is not recommended, as compatibility issues may arise that would compromise the quality of the bend or, in the worst cases, damage both the die and the tube.
