About & Disclosures
Who runs TubeBenderReviews
TubeBenderReviews is published by Joseph Gambino — a mechanical engineer and the founder of Rogue Fabrication (RogueFab). Yes, I own RogueFab. And yes, we make tube benders.
This site exists because most tube bender "reviews" online are either thin marketing pieces or random forum opinions. I wanted a single place where you can compare all the major manual and hydraulic benders using one scoring system, with the rules written down in public.
Ownership & conflicts of interest
I am the majority owner of Rogue Fabrication, LLC. That means I have a direct financial interest in one of the brands listed on this site. You should know that up front.
To keep things honest, every brand (including RogueFab) is scored using the same published 11-category, 100-point scoring framework. RogueFab does not get special categories, hidden weights, or "editor-only" bonuses. If a RogueFab product scores well, it's because it wins on the published criteria. If it doesn't, the score reflects that.
How the scoring works
The scoring system is built around real specs and real trade-offs, not vague vibes. Each product is evaluated on things like:
- Value for money (complete setup price bands)
- Max tube diameter and bend radius capability
- Country of origin and manufacturing
- Maximum bend angle
- Wall thickness capability (for 1.75" DOM)
- Die selection and shapes
- Years in business and track record
- Upgrade path, modular clamping, and mandrel options
- S-bend capability and real-world flexibility
You can read the full scoring breakdown on the Scoring Methodology page. The short version: there is one scoring model, it's transparent, and it applies to everyone.
Data sources & corrections
Specs and pricing start from the manufacturers' published data, then get normalized so you can compare apples to apples. On top of that, I maintain a private admin panel that lets me correct or update specs without redeploying the whole site.
If you represent a brand and notice an error, email me with documentation and I'll fix it. I care much more about being correct than "winning" a comparison.
Affiliate links & money
At the time of writing, this site does not take paid placement and does not accept "pay to win" deals from any brand. In the future, some outbound links may be affiliate links, which means the site could earn a small commission if you buy through them. If/when that happens, those links will be labeled clearly.
