PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a wire bender having a wire holding member in place of a conventional center chuck of a device to bend a wire from both ends in a three-dimensional manner with a wire clamping function and a clamping and turning function of turning the wire while clamping the wire with a simple configuration, and capable of designing the thickness of the holding member to a minimum. SOLUTION: In the wire bender, a holding member 1 having a pair of fingers 11 and 11 is disposed in a center, a pair of wire bending means are provided on both sides thereof in an advancing/retracting manner, and the holding member 1 is connected to the pair of fingers 11. Rack pinion mechanisms 17, 18T are fitted to keeping members 16 to keep a facing condition of the fingers in a predetermined angular range, a power of a motor 19 is transmitted via a slider 18, the keeping members 16 are movable in the directions opposite to each other so as to clamp and turn a wire W.
