Technical Features
- Drop-forged, high-impact steel jaws with heat treatment delivers consistent hardness and durability under repeated high-stress bending operations, extending tool service life.
- 6 in. wide jaw width produces uniform, accurate bends across a wider work surface, minimizing buckling and bowing of sheet metal in a single pass.
- Compound head-to-handle leverage design multiplies applied force mechanically, reducing the number of strokes required to complete bends and straighten angles.
- Rust-resistant nickel plating on jaws protects against corrosion during long-term storage and use in demanding job-site environments.
- Hardened steel handles resist deformation and abuse, maintaining structural integrity under heavy-duty use.
- Over-molded, non-slip handle insert with ergonomic contours provides a secure, natural grip during operation and reduces hand fatigue over extended use.
- Single-hand operation with easy open/close latch keeps the operator’s secondary hand free to steady the work piece, improving precision and job-site safety.
- REDLINE handle opening geometry engineered to maximize the leverage range of the compound linkage while accommodating a comfortable hand position throughout the full stroke.
Applications
- HVACR ductwork installation bending and seaming sheet steel components to specification.
- Roofing and siding forming accurate bends and straightening angles in non-ferrous and steel panels.
- Commercial building and remodeling general sheet metal fabrication and fitting tasks requiring controlled, repeatable bends.
- All metal trades requiring precise hand seaming of sheet steel or non-ferrous metals.
