Combination Beading Expander

In-stock SKU: N/A

The Wilson Combination Beading Expander (CBE) is one of our smartest tools! Rather than expanding a tube, manually beading it, and then re-rolling it with a straight roll expander, the patented Combination Beading Expander from TC Wilson does all three jobs in one seamless process. The CBExpander, now available in 1-1/2″ for all gauges (10 ga-12 ga), allows the operator to cut the tube in the boiler, which delivers perfect results in 8 seconds.

The Wilson Combination Beading Expander doesn’t just save time, cut labor costs and reduce your equipment investment; it also produces a perfect bead every time.

  • Cut labor costs by 50 to 65%
  • Purchase and maintain one tool instead of three
  • Minimal employee training or experience required

Designed primarily for fabrication and re-tubing of fire-tube boilers, the Combination Beading Expander rolls and beads many different sized tubes. Ensure at least 3/16″ projection from the tube sheet when using the CBE as this is critical for forming a bead.

Use this self-feeding, parallel-rolling tool to reduce your process time. Order yours today to boost your team’s efficiency.
