Rated 5 out of 5 by from 27 inch bead roller the bead roller we ordered does not bolt to the stand we ordered... we made modifications ourselves. nowhere on your site does it say these "are" or "are not" compatible.... VERY misleading and confusing.....

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Neoprene support die ? The products are awesome ! I am very pleased with everything. But , one thing I have an issue with . On the bead roller? The extra die’s that I purchased. The neoprene support die keeps wanting to come off as you use it. I see that the lower drive axle has been tapped for a bolt . But the machine did not come with one ? To hold it into place.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Needs some tweaking before use Needs a considerable amount of work before use. Side locking handle threads were too long and had to remove about 5/8". Threaded holes shown in the matching stands installation manual were not correct. Had to notch bracket, drill and tap an additional 10mm hole and grind a radius on the bead roller frame so that the angle bracket supplied would sit flat. Had to adjust mesh on gears because they were too tight. Seams like a nice design for the money. 2 man only operation if you don't opt for the motor.

How many passes would I have to make to put a 1in bend at 90deg.on 18 gauge mild steel

Asked by: Budd
Absolutely it CAN produce 90 degree bends. The use of a tipping die will allow for this. As far as how many passes it requires, it really depends on the material type, thickness,how aggressively the metal is being formed and the quality you expect from the final pass. I find that with 20 ga mild steel ( cold-rolled ) I can make a 1" bend to 90 deg ( ie: mounting flanges or wheel opening lip ( less than 1" ) ) in 2-4 passes. This really depends on whether or not I am working a straight line or curved section like a wheel opening. Also, when you break down your work into multiple, less-aggressive passes, the amount of distortion can be more easily controlled, which requires much less metal finishing later on. For your purposes here, I would suggest the Eastwood Tipping Die and also the urethane bottom die to achieve what you are hoping for. These 2 dies are relatively low cost and should be included in anyone's die set. I would suggest, however, that bead-rolling, like any other metalcraft, requires practice and patience; so start with scrap and discover what works best for your needs. Also try experimenting with different die combinations. What you learn from these practice runs will also show you what is possible with the tools you have in your possession. A suggestion... There are copious amounts of videos online, on popular video-sharing platforms where master metalshapers teach beadrolling techniques and tricks. No matter how confident one gets in their skills with metal, there is always a different technique or perspective through which to view what you are working on.

When it says 22 mm shafts, will this work with other manufacturers 3/4 inch shaft dies?

Asked by: Patrick
No way will a 3/4" die fit on a 22 mm shaft. 3/4" = 19 mm 22 mm = 0.866" Basic math.

Watching your videos and reading answers to some questions on bead rollers and bead rollers dies, I here and read that you are using 22mm and 7/8" interchangeable.  So can I use 7/8" id bead roller dies on your Elite 27" bead roller?

Asked by: joe49chevy
You should be able to use 7/8 dies with our bead rollers no problem.

Bead rollers. Any plans to make a 22mm to 3/4 shaft adapter? now that you have the motorized option for cheaper bead rollers. i think this would be a great option and cheap to produce and open your bead roller die options and more sales.

Asked by: bob rossi
Thank you for your input and inquiry. At this current time, we do not have anything of the sort in the works. We will certainly bring this up at our next meeting though and inform the Product Manager of these items of the interest.
