Review on 🔧 Maxline M8097 Pipe Tube Straightener for 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, and 1-inch Tubing by Jerry King

I purchased this product to help install a Maxline 3/4" air duct kit in my garage. According to the description I thought it would straighten the airline. The problem is that it doesn't really straighten pipes, especially long pieces. I've tried different ways, all with the same result. The tube was a little straighter than before, but now it looked more like an arc than a straight tube. To make the problem worse, it is quite difficult to pull/pull the tube through the device. I'm quite a strong person and it took a lot of effort to push/pull the tube through the straightener. My forearms really hurt for two days after trying to use the tool. Because it was very difficult to use, I had to clamp it in a vise, severely limiting the length of pipe I could attempt to fit through. As a result, I couldn't use it for the 16 foot pipe I wanted to straighten. In summary, this was a huge disappointment for me, especially given the cost of this tool.
