Wuko 9050 Sheet Metal Bogie Bender

The WUKO 9050 Bogie Bender, also known as the "Curve Hugger," is a professional handheld sheet metal bending tool specifically designed for precise bending along inside and outside radii. Featuring two swivel joints with three roller stops each, the WUKO 9050 provides exceptional stability, control, and accuracy when forming curved sheet metal profiles.

With an adjustable bending height ranging from 5 mm (3/16") to 50 mm (2"), the WUKO 9050 produces clean bends up to 100°. Its angled bending wheel helps compensate for material spring-back while protecting delicate or coated sheet metal surfaces from scratches. Integrated locking pins allow the swivel joints to be secured for straight bending applications or released to follow curved edges, making the Bogie Bender a versatile tool for metal roofing, curved flashings, and architectural sheet metal fabrication.

Features & Benefits

• 100° Bending Capability: Forms precise bends from 0° to 100°, helping compensate for spring-back when working with certain sheet metals.
• Inside & Outside Radius Bending: Designed to follow both concave and convex curves for accurate sheet metal forming.
• Dual Swivel Joints: Two adjustable swivel joints allow the tool to follow curved sheet metal edges while maintaining consistent bending pressure.
• Six Roller Stops: Three roller stops on each swivel joint provide stability and guidance during bending.
• Lockable Swivel Joints: Integrated locking pins secure the joints for controlled bending along straight sheet metal edges.
• Angled Bending Wheel: Provides clean, controlled bending while helping protect delicate or coated sheet metal surfaces.
• Spring-Back Material Compatibility: Extended bending angle helps achieve accurate 90° bends in materials that tend to spring back.
• Adjustable Bending Height: Accommodates bending heights from 5 mm (3/16") to 50 mm (2").
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for curved roof flashings, radius panels, architectural sheet metal, and custom metal roofing fabrication.
• Compact & Lightweight: Weighs approximately 2.65 lbs for convenient handling and portability.
• Carrying Case Included: Provides convenient storage and protection during transportation.
• Manual Operation: No electrical power required.

How to Use the Swivel Joint System

The WUKO 9050 Bogie Bender can be quickly adjusted between straight and curved bending applications using its integrated locking pins.

• For Straight Bending: Engage the integrated locking pins to secure both swivel joints in position for stable, controlled bending along straight edges.
• For Curved Bending: Pull out the two black locking knobs and rotate them 30° to secure them in the released position. This allows the swivel joints and roller stops to move freely and follow the curved sheet metal edge.
