Makes bends to 135 degrees in galvanized sheet
steel up to 22 gauge (0.86 mm). A beefed-up 1/4”
(6.4 mm) plate steel apron and 4’ (1.22 m) metal width
capacity makes the Mini Brake ideal for fabricating
plenums or large transitions at the job site.
A 1/4” (6.4 mm) plate steel apron and adjustable strengthening ribs on anvil assure uniform bends across width of material.
Common 5/16” course-thread adjustment bolts on anvil are factory set and are also easily adjustable in the field as necessary.
Accommodates sheet metal up to 4-feet (1.22 m) wide in any length. There is no fixed throat depth to contend with.
Versatile bending range accommodates compact fabrications as small as a 4-inch (102 mm) square.
The Mini Brake also bends metal roofing components and roof flashing including copper and aluminum.
Dual-direction, cam-over style clamps keep anvil secure in any position. This safety conscious feature prevents
anvil from free falling or creating a pinching hazard.
