M8097 MAXLINE PIPE STRAIGHTENER FOR 1/2", 3/4" AND 1" TUBING

Well-made and simplified so much a frustrating task.

Used to unroll 3/4 roller pex, made it straight in 30 seconds. True lifesaver

I gave this 5 star tool a 4 star rating because their shipper is slack! They put this tool loose in a large box which equates to almost certain product damage! My tool had a heavy dent in the aluminum backing plate, I radiused the corners to remove the dent, luckily the plastic rollers weren't damaged (other customers had broken rollers as per reviews). I mounted this straightener firmly in my welding table vise. I used a wooden 4X4 as a spool axle for the tubing roll so I didn't need two people to straighten the 3/4 inch tube. This tube is tough to bend, it takes a good bit of effort to pull it through the straightener but far less effort then trying to straighten it manually!

It works well but is expensive

The roller/straightening tool sort of worked but it just left the pipe deformed slightly and in a long banana shape. Probably twice what it should have cost. Was made of a nice sturdy piece of aluminum and then they used these super cheap rollers. Not impressed.

I purchased this to install the 3/4" rapid air kit. I looked at making my own but am happy I chose to purchase this. It works without any guesswork. A secondary use, I used it to straighten the exposed PEX water lines in my shop. I am very happy with this purchase.

Quite expensive for what it does. Requires three people to use, one standing on the block, one unrolling coil to feed it through and one to aggressively pull it through the block because it’s so hard to get through. Kicker of it is you have to pull on it so hard you easily bend it out of straight. Best to save the money and unroll it on level ground as walk it through and is just as straight after that.

when buying the airline by the roll, this tool makes them nice and straight, plus the vendor shipped lightening fast! I received it 2 days before I expected it.

Arrived broken.
