Adjustable-Width Sheet Metal Benders for Bench Vises
Shape sheet metal using your bench vise as a sturdy base. Remove or slide the four dies along the clamping bar to form angles, channels, boxes, trays, and pans in a variety of widths. Unlike bench-top and floor-mount benders, these are not permanently mounted—pull them out when you need them and store them when you don’t.

Combination Sheet Metal Shears, Benders, and Curvers
Save space in your shop by cutting, bending, and curving sheet metal with a single machine. Also known as shear brake rolls. Use the blade on the shear to make clean, straight cuts; it has two cutting edges for twice the life. A press brake makes bends up to 90°. Create curves and circles with the slip roll.
When using the shear or press brake, set the manual back gauge to precisely position the sheet metal for consistent cuts or bends.

Sheet Metal Curvers
Create bends, curves, and circles in sheet metal. Also known as slip rolls, these curvers can form a single curve. The rollers also have wire grooves to shape three sizes of wire. They mount to a table or bench top.

Sheet Metal Curvers for Shrinking and Stretching Curves
Pull and pinch metal extrusions, such as L-channels, so they fit precisely around contoured edges and frames. These curvers shrink or compress curves as well as smooth ridges and dents without heating or welding.
Carry hand-held curvers along with you to jobs. They’re small enough to fit where floor-stand models can't.
Curvers with a stand have foot pedals to keep your hands free to move the metal and complete jobs faster than hand-held models. Mounted on casters, you can move the curvers around your shop.

Wire, Rod, and Flat Stock Curvers
Also known as ring rollers, these curvers shape wire, rods, and flat stock into curves and circles. Turn the handle to drive material through the steel rollers. With each pass through the rollers, tighten the tensioner knob in small increments to gradually increase the curve.
Curvers with stand come with three sets of rollers—one for flat stock and two for wire and rods. They can apply pressure from either side of the bottom roller, creating more curve options.

Benchtop Rolling Mills
With hardened rollers and precision-machined gears, these rolling mills stand up to heavy use. They’re often used to compress sheets to an uncommon gauge size, convert scrap metal into sheets or wire, or create different thicknesses in a single piece of metal without welding multiple pieces together. After several passes through the mill, you may need to anneal your metal to soften it and prevent cracking.
Manual mills are gear driven, making them easier to turn than direct-drive rolling mills. Their rollers have grooves so you can form square and half-round wire in addition to sheets.
Electric mills do not require hand cranking, so they provide the power you need to complete high volumes of work. They have flat rollers for creating uniform sheets.
Gear speed ratio indicates the force it takes to turn the output gear. For instance, the manual rolling mill has a 4:1 gear ratio, meaning that you rotate the handle four times to turn the gear powering the rollers once.

Floor-Mount Combination Presses, Punches, and Shears
Also known as a 40-ton metalworker, these hydraulic machines handle a variety of forming tasks including pressing, punching, notching, and shearing. The safety guard complies with ANSI B11.8 standards. Machines require 1 1/2 gallons of Mobil DTE 24 Ultra or equivalent hydraulic oil (sold separately).
