Beyond expectationsIt stated 20 gauge but can easily do 16 gauge cold rolled steel. I haven't used it for a prolonged period of time and don't expect to continue the use on thicker gauge materials but it does work beyond the criteria specified.

Great productI picked this up to work in some metal projects I was working on. The saleswoman in the Edison store suggested this brake and a shear vs the 3 in 1 unit I was looking at for the types of work I was contemplating. I’m glad she did. This is a great small bender and the fingers really make it versatile for compound and technical bends.

Capacity better than advertisedImpressed with the weight and function. Regarding metal gauge thickness, this little brake bends 22 gauge stainless steel (6” wide) without any problem.
What is the bend radius created by the tooling on this brake?
Asked by: andrig
The teeth on this brake come to an edge, so its not exactly making a smooth radius. Since this is only for 20 gauge steel or thinner, any radius present will be very small.

Will this bend brass strips .064 think and 3/4 in wide? That's the same as 16 gauge but it's much harder than aluminum
Asked by: Steven
With that surface being harder than aluminum we would not recommend this machine for that use.

Will this unit bend stainless steel stripe of 16 gauge 3/4" wide in to a 90 degree bend?
Asked by: StevenE
This would not be able to bend 16 gauge stainless. Unfortunately as state din the description the stainless rating for this tool is 24 gauge.

I need to make sleeves approximately 7 inches high and 6 inches square. Will this unit do this? These sleeves protect the bottom of 6x6 post from damage.
Thanks
Paul V Haddaway
Asked by: None
This unit will not have the ability to make the sleeves you are referring to. It will only bend about a 1 inch lip without hitting the machine. It sounds like you would be better to look at our Versa bend brake.
