Try www.eastwood.com I think they have a bead roller for tubing. Not sure about the cost, though.

Re: where to get a bead roller?
You need to look up a tool called Bead Form. I think trick tools usually has them on ebay. The are purposely made for tubing. http://www.beadform.com/
I have one that goes from 5/8 to 2" and have used it on stuff up to 4". I have also abused it on stuff like .065 wall stainless - wouldn't want to do it often, but it got the job done! |
