Combination Beading Expander
The Wilson Combination Beading Expander (CBE) is one of our smartest tools! Rather than expand a tube, then manually bead it, and then re-roll it with a straight roll expander, the patented Combination Beading Expander from TC Wilson does all three jobs in one seamless process. 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! Designed primarily for the fabrication and re-tubing of fire-tube boilers, the Combination Beading Expander rolls and beads tubes with 2-inch, 2 1/2-inch and 3-inch Outer Diameters, 10 to 13 gauge. The Wilson Combination Beading Expander for 2-inch Outer Diameter tubes is a 4-roll expander. For 2 1/2-inch and 3-inch tubes, it is a 5-roll expander. And the Combination Beading Expander is a self-feeding, parallel-rolling unit. For best results, trim the tube to be expanded and beaded to 3/16-inch projection.
