Baileigh R-M55H Hydraulic Ring Roller
The Baileigh R-M55H is an industrial grade hydraulic profile bender designed to give you precision control and professional results when bending pipes, tubes, solid rounds, flat bars, and angle iron. With its advanced hydraulic system and digital readout, you'll achieve repeatable radii with less effort and greater accuracy than manual models.
Looking for a roll bender that combines power, precision, and versatility? The R-M55H is built from the ground up to handle your toughest metalworking projects. This Portuguese manufactured machine elevates the proven R-M55 design with an industrial grade hydraulic system that controls the top forming roll, saving you time and physical effort while delivering consistently accurate results.
What makes this machine special is its intelligent design. You get a digital readout that shows you exactly where the top shaft is positioned, making production runs with repeatable bends incredibly simple. The independent operator pedestal puts all your controls right at your fingertips, including foot pedal operation for forward and reverse. Whether you're working on architectural metalwork, custom fabrication, or industrial manufacturing, this machine gives you the control you need.
The R-M55H works with a three-roll system: one top forming roll and two driven bottom rolls. You can operate it in two positions, vertical for smaller rolling projects and horizontal for longer material sections. This flexibility means you're not limited by project size. Plus, with variable speed control and an overload protected Allen Bradley inverter, you can fine-tune the rolling speed for different materials and protect your investment at the same time.

Applications
- Architectural Metalwork: Create curved handrails, decorative scrollwork, and circular structural elements for building projects
- Custom Fabrication: Bend round and square tubes for custom furniture, gates, and ornamental metalwork
- Industrial Manufacturing: Produce rings, cylinders, and curved components for tanks, ducts, and industrial equipment
- Automotive & Marine: Form roll cages, exhaust components, and curved frame members with precision
- HVAC & Ductwork: Roll curved duct sections and circular ventilation components
- Agricultural Equipment: Fabricate curved components for trailers, machinery frames, and equipment modifications
Key Features & Benefits
- Hydraulic Roll Adjustment: The hydraulic system takes the strain out of positioning, letting you achieve precise radii with minimal physical effort. No more cranking handles for hours.
- Digital Readout System: Know exactly where your top shaft is positioned at all times. This feature is a game-changer for production runs where you need to replicate the same bend over and over again.
- Dual Operating Positions: Switch between vertical mode for compact projects and horizontal mode when you're working with longer material. The machine has feet on both the bottom and back, so you're covered either way.
- Variable Speed Control: Fine-tune your rolling speed to match your material and project requirements. Different metals need different speeds, and you've got complete control.
- Powerful Direct Gearbox Drive: Get full torque even when you're bending at maximum capacity. This machine doesn't slow down when you need it most.
- Overload-Protected Inverter: The Allen-Bradley inverter monitors your rolling speed and protects against overload, extending the machine's lifespan and preventing costly damage.
- Versatile Material Capacity: Handle everything from 60mm pipe to 70mm round tube, 50mm square tube, solid rounds, flat bars both ways, and angle iron. One machine, multiple applications.
- Rugged Construction: Built from heavy steel plate with a one-piece framework that maintains accuracy and minimizes flex, even at maximum capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I bend stainless steel or aluminum with this machine?
Yes, you can work with various metals including stainless steel and aluminum. However, the specifications listed are based on mild steel with 60,000 PSI tensile strength. For harder materials or different wall thicknesses, your actual capacity may vary. The variable speed control helps you adjust for different material properties.
Do I need threephase power to run this machine?
No, one of the great advantages of the R-M55H is that it runs on standard 220V single-phase power. This makes it practical for smaller shops that don't have three-phase power available.
How difficult is it to change roll sets for different profiles?
The R-M55H is designed for straightforward roll changes. While the process requires some mechanical knowledge, it's not overly complex. Baileigh offers optional roll sets for specific applications, and you have access to lifetime technical support if you need guidance.
What kind of maintenance does this machine require?
Regular maintenance includes keeping the rolls clean, checking hydraulic fluid levels, and lubricating moving parts according to the manual. The overload-protected inverter and rugged construction minimize maintenance needs, but regular inspections will keep your machine running smoothly for years.
What warranty and support come with the RM55H?
Baileigh covers this machine with a comprehensive 1-year parts warranty. More importantly, you get lifetime technical support by phone, so if you run into challenges with a difficult project or need troubleshooting help, experienced Baileigh representatives are just a call away.
