Abstract
In a pipe bending apparatus, a chuck unit is movable along a straight pipe for holding it in position between a pair of bending units which are also movable along the pipe. The apparatus can bend even a long metal pipe having a small diameter accurately at a desired angle in any of a variety of directions, while allowing it to be quickly set for any bending job.
