Tube Bender vs Pipe Bender

There is no difference between tube bender and pipe bender, if bending machinery can bend a tube, then it can bend a pipe. So, this is not the matter of the machine to bend metal, this is the matter of material. You just need to find a machine that could handle the size of your tube or pipe.

Now, we understand that the question we are talking about is not between a tubing bending machine and a pipe bending machine, the question should be the difference between pipe and tube.

If we are working in tube and pipe fabrication, we know some specialized knowledge more or less. Such as, when we talk about the pipe diameter, it always means the inside diameter and if it comes to the tube, it always means outside diameter.
