An Automotive Exhaust Pipe Bender is a specialized machine designed to bend and shape exhaust pipes for cars, trucks, and other vehicles without damaging the pipe’s structural integrity. It allows fabricators, repair shops, and manufacturers to create custom exhaust systems or replace damaged sections by forming precise angles and curves that fit specific vehicle designs.
Our line of automotive exhaust pipe benders covers manual, hydraulic, and CNC mandrel machines for muffler shops, performance fabricators, and production lines. Configure 1.5″–3.0″ OD die packages, choose swage/expand/flare end-finishing, and select controls from knee-operated to semi-automatic with digital angle readout. Shop benders start in the low-teens (USD), while high-capacity CNC mandrel systems address multi-shift production. BOST specialize in the design and manufacture of pipe bending machines. To ensure superior performance and quality, each one undergoes rigorous quality control and testing. We also continuously innovate and provide technical support to provide customers with customized pipe bending solutions that satisfy them.
Our Automotive Exhaust Pipe Benders can be manual, hydraulic, or electric, and they often come with different bending dies to accommodate various pipe diameters and materials, such as stainless steel, aluminized steel, or mild steel. In the automotive industry, exhaust pipe benders are essential for:
• Custom exhaust fabrication for performance tuning
• OEM replacement in repair shops
• Mass production in automotive manufacturing lines
A high-quality automotive exhaust pipe bender helps ensure accurate bends, smooth finishes, and consistent results, which are critical for both performance and aesthetics in exhaust systems.
Muffler & repair shops: compact footprint, fast setup, knee controls, built-in swager/expander.
Performance & custom exhaust: tighter CLR, smoother radii, mandrel for minimal ovality and better flow.
Industrial/job shops: NC/CNC multi-axis control, recipe storage, and consistent repeatability.
Ideal for OE-style bends and fast turnaround.
Die packages typically include 1.5″–3.0″ sizes; verify CLR options for your chassis layouts.
Add end-finisher for beading, swaging, slip joints, and flares in one machine.
Wrinkle-free bends, controlled ovality, and consistent flow—perfect for high-end exhaust, headers, thin-wall stainless.
Capacities from ½″ up to 6.5″ on industrial models; multi-axis NC/CNC for complex geometries.
Capacity: Max OD and wall thickness (common exhaust range 1.5″–3.0″).
CLR & tooling: die sizes, centerline radius options, wiper/mandrel availability (for mandrel machines).
Controls: knee control, foot pedal, digital angle, programmable stops, NC/CNC axes.
End-finishing: swage, expand, flare, bead—verify included tooling vs optional kits.
Power & footprint: 220V single-phase (typical shop benders) vs three-phase for higher-end machines; confirm space, weight, and anchoring.
Price & finance: shop benders in the ~$12k–$14k range; CNC mandrel units can exceed $200k depending on capacity/axes.
Q1: Do I need a mandrel bender for exhaust work?
A: For routine repair with thicker wall, non-mandrel is fine. For thin-wall stainless and high-flow performance systems, a mandrel bender delivers smoother, wrinkle-free bends and reduced ovality.
Q2: What sizes should my die package include?
A: Most shops cover 1.5″–3.0″ OD with common intermediate sizes (1.75″, 2.25″, 2.5″). Match CLR to chassis constraints.
Q3: Can one machine handle end-finishing?
A: Yes—many shop benders integrate swage/expand/flare stations for slip joints and beading.
