Quite expensive.
Not really reqd.

Alternative diy:

Pic 1. Make a 90deg bend.
Pic 2. Make another 90deg bend at right angle to the first one.
Pic 3. Hold the bend in pliers.
Pic 4. Bend long end into line with the bend.
Pic 5. A decent Z bend!

@praveen jose,
No, no. As explained below.

@rastsaurabh,
I dont think i've had to make more than 500 zee bends.
But over a period of 50 years, it comes to only 1 per month.
So i never needed zed bend pliers.

The real reason for getting a special tool is what Satish said, viz, I feel like getting one

@satz flying,
Go ahead.
Contact ashok baijal and see if can spare one.
