Powerful Drive System

The Eastwood Bead Roller Drive System features a powerful 1.65-amp motor with an integral 75:1 gear reduction that enables you to easily forms ½” beads in 18-gauge steel. Unlike other motors on the market, the Eastwood Drive System has a durable industrial style motor, which gives you more power then you need.

Universal Design To Fit Other Bead Rollers

The drive motor fits any hand crank bead roller with a standard shaft size, which is 25mm at the crank handle. The shaft is usually smaller where the dies attach (often 22mm).

The 1/6-horsepower electric motor and three-position toggle switch replaces the hand crank. Use the infinite Speed Control dial to set the exact rate for your forming project. It comes with a footswitch to operate the drive system, leaving both hands free to control sheets and parts.

The Eastwood Universal Bead Roller Drive turns what once were two-man projects into a solo operation. It can form bends and channels in up to 18-gauge steel just like if you were using the original hand crank while running off ordinary household current. Installation takes less than 30 minutes. If you want to switch back to manual operation, that’s easy,

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great buy! I've had my bead roller for a few years, but hardly used it, due to the difficulty dealing with trying to turn the crank, or finding a buddy to help. This drive is AWESOME, and makes using the tool 100 percent better! I was going to try to rig a motor, switch, etc, but the ease of setting this up was super simple! Works perfectly! Cost was more than the bead roller itself, but well worth the cost!

Can this be mounted vertically

Asked by: MoMo
The motor system cannot be mounted vertical with respect to the bead roller, it must be inline as shown in the images, but I see no reason the entire bead roller and motor assembly could not be oriented vertically.
