Tige droite pliable KECO GPR+ 35" avec embout à vis

Product Overview

The KECO GPR+ 35" Bendable Straight Rod (SKU: 330-35NB130-SC) is the ultimate customizable access tool for Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) professionals. Unlike rigid, pre-bent factory rods, this highly versatile 35-inch tool is manufactured from a specialized alloy that allows technicians to physically bend and shape the shaft to meet the exact access requirements of a specific dent. Whether you need a subtle curve to glide down a window track or a complex series of bends to navigate deep inside a quarter panel, this rod adapts instantly to your workflow.

Out of the box, the tool features a straight profile equipped with an industry-standard 5/16"-18 interchangeable screw tip. This universal thread allows you to easily transition from soft, broad metal pushing with rubber tips to razor-sharp micro-finishing with metal picks. Once your custom repair is complete, the rod can be bent back to its original straight form or reshaped for the next challenge. Backed by KECO's lifetime warranty, it is an indispensable "problem solver" rod for unpredictable collision repair scenarios.

Key Features

• Custom Bendable Shaft: Engineered from a specialized, pliable yet resilient steel alloy. Technicians can custom-bend the rod over a tire or knee to navigate around unique internal obstructions, and then bend it straight again when finished.

• 35-Inch Versatile Reach: Provides ample length to reach deep into quarter panels, large commercial doors, and wide deck lids without needing to remove exterior panels.

• Interchangeable Screw Tip: Features the PDR industry-standard 5/16"-18 female thread, making it instantly compatible with a massive variety of pushing tips (rubber, plastic, peek, or sharp steel) from all major tool manufacturers.

• Straight Profile Baseline: Starts as a completely straight rod, making it highly effective for direct line-of-sight pushing or sliding down unobstructed door glass cavities before any custom bends are applied.

• Premium Durability: Built to withstand repeated bending and heavy pushing pressure without snapping or permanently losing its structural integrity. Backed by KECO's lifetime warranty.

Technical Specifications

Ideal Use Cases & Applications

• Unpredictable Access Scenarios: The perfect tool to grab when standard single-bend or double-bend rods cannot find a clear path around complex internal crash bars, wiring harnesses, or window motors.

• Deep Quarter Panels: The 35-inch length combined with the ability to add a custom curve makes it exceptional for reaching deep through trunk openings to repair hidden quarter panel damage.

• Fender & Door Blending: Can be used straight to slide down window tracks, or bent slightly to match the exact curvature of a wheel arch or fender lip for perfectly contoured pushing.

Common Questions (FAQs)

Q: Will bending the rod back and forth cause it to break?
A: No. This rod is specifically manufactured from a specialized alloy designed for repeated, controlled bending. While extreme, sharp kinks should be avoided, technicians can safely bend it into smooth curves over a tire or their knee hundreds of times without compromising the tool's structural integrity.

Q: How do I bend the rod safely?
A: The safest way to introduce a bend is to apply slow, even pressure over a curved surface, such as the tread of a vehicle tire or over your thigh. Avoid clamping it in a hard vice and snapping it sharply, as a harsh 90-degree kink can stress the metal.

Q: What kind of tips can I attach to this rod?
A: This rod utilizes the PDR industry-standard 5/16"-18 female thread. It will securely hold standard interchangeable tips from KECO, Dentcraft, A1, Ultra Dent, and most other major PDR tool brands. Tips are generally sold separately.
