Sioux Chief 550-PB3 3/4" Simple Bend Support

This Sioux Chief 3/4" Simple Bend Support is built to hold rigid and flexible tube in place as it changes direction during behind-the-wall rough-in installation. Positioned right at a bend, this support keeps the tube run aligned and helps prevent the kinking or flow restriction that can occur when tubing is forced around a turn without any backing. It is manufactured in Thailand and packed 50 pieces per case, making it a practical bulk item for plumbing and mechanical contractors who need to back up multiple bends across a job site without a mid-job reorder.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: Sized for 3/4" tube, matching common rough-in supply and distribution runs.
  • Simple Bend Support Design: A straightforward, no-frills support built to hold tube at a bend point and maintain a consistent bend radius through the rough-in phase.
  • Kink Prevention: Backing the tube through the turn helps guard against pinching or collapsing the tube wall, which can restrict flow once the system is closed up and in service.
  • Rough-In Friendly Install: Sized and shaped to be set in place quickly against framing at the point of the bend, keeping the tube run neat before drywall goes up.
  • Bulk Case Packaging: Supplied 50 pieces per case, so plumbing and mechanical crews can stock enough supports to cover multiple bends across a rough-in job without reordering mid-run.
  • Country of Manufacture: Produced in Thailand as part of the broader Sioux Chief rough-in plumbing supply line.

Technical Specifications

  • Trade Size: 3/4"
  • Country of Origin: Thailand
  • Packaging: 50 EA per case

Typical Applications

  • Residential and Commercial Rough-In Tube Installation
  • Supporting Tube Through Directional Bends and Offsets
  • New Construction Plumbing Rough-In
  • Remodel and Renovation Plumbing Work
  • Job Sites Requiring Bulk Rough-In Bend Supports
  • Stocking Service Trucks and Rough-In Kits for 3/4" Tube Runs

Why Sioux Chief?

Sioux Chief supplies rough-in plumbing professionals with a broad line of tube supports, fittings, and hangers built for the realities of a working job site, and this Simple Bend Support continues that focus. It gives installers a straightforward way to back up 3/4" tube at a bend instead of leaving it unsupported, and its 50-count case packaging is sized for how contractors actually buy and stock rough-in hardware for a full job rather than one bend at a time. Choosing a Sioux Chief bend support for this kind of behind-the-wall hardware means one less variable to think about while running tube, since the same support can be set at every bend in a run for consistent results from crew to crew and job to job.

Sioux Chief 550-PB2 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What tube sizes does the Sioux Chief 550-PB simple bend support come in?
Two trade sizes: 1/2 inch CTS (model 550-PB2) and 3/4 inch (model 550-PB3). Match the support to the tube size you are running, since the support cradles the tube through the turn and an oversized one will not hold the bend radius.
2) What does a bend support actually do on a rough-in, and do I need one at every turn?
It backs up the tube right at the bend so the run holds a consistent radius instead of being pulled around a corner unsupported. Without backing, the tube wall can pinch or collapse and restrict flow once the wall is closed up. Set one at each directional bend or offset you want held; the 550-PB ships 50 per case so a crew can cover a full rough-in without reordering.
3) Will the Sioux Chief 550-PB work with PEX, or is it only for rigid tube?
Both. The 550-PB simple bend support is built to hold rigid and flexible tube in place as it changes direction during behind-the-wall rough-in, so it suits flexible supply tubing as well as rigid runs, as long as the tube matches the support's trade size (1/2 inch CTS or 3/4 inch).
4) Does the 1/2 inch version fit copper or just CTS plastic tube?
The small size is listed as 1/2 inch CTS (copper tube size), model 550-PB2. CTS is the dimensional basis shared by copper and by CTS-dimension plastic tubing such as PEX, so a 1/2 inch CTS support cradles tube of that outside diameter regardless of which of those materials it is.
5) Can I use a 3/4 inch bend support on 1/2 inch tube to standardize my truck stock?
No. Order the size that matches the tube. The 3/4 inch 550-PB3 is shaped for 3/4 inch tube and will not hold 1/2 inch tube tight through the turn, which defeats the point of backing the bend. For 1/2 inch CTS runs use the 550-PB2.
6) How is the 550-PB bend support packaged for a contractor buying for a whole job?
It is packed 50 each per case. That is sized for stocking a rough-in job or a service truck rather than buying one bend at a time, which is how most plumbing and mechanical crews buy this hardware.
