Your cart is empty.8 Inch 200mm Bending Brake-Vise Mount. It is the slickest and cheapest way to bend metal sheet. The press fingers are sectional and can be removed allowing small boxes to be made.

Poorly made and low quality. This tool has a few flaws. Two are most prominent. The first I will mention is that the pointed side of the bending tool is made up of approximately 6 different sized pieces of steel. It’s basically a hodgepodge of random sized blades thrown together. The slightest amount of flexing will misalign the straightedge. If they are misaligned, that will show in the bend you are making and show up as a dimple. If you’re looking for a smooth edge look elsewhere. The second flaw I noted is the magnets. They are don’t very strong and the tool will fall from the vise. If the blades size falls and impacts the floor, it will contribute to the first problem I noted.

Its a bit odd seeing "metal workers" who've bought this complaining about the magnets. Yes the magnets are terrible, they're weak, and they dont hold the part on the vice. Its an 8" vice brake, I'm a little shocked you're relying on magnets anyway. They're just 3/4" round magnets and theres only two per side spaced 6" on center. They can be pryed out and replaced with rare earth magnets OR, since you're a "metal worker" who obviously already owns a vice, just bend some 1/8" or 3/16" metal round bar in an L and weld it to the top of the die so it hangs down over vice jaws like claws for a super sturdy set up. It took me almost 15 minutes to cut, bend, and tack weld four claws on.. problem solved. As far as the brake goes, its decent and depends more on the vice than the tool or dies. "Top" die (blade) is fingered into 4", 2", 1" and two 1/2" fingers but those fingers can only be positioned in their factory location because who ever designed this was bad at math and didn't evenly space the finger bolts. Its soaked in oil, as are all tools from factory, so wipe it off with isopropyl or laquer thinner. It bends fine, I'd say a 1/8" outside radius on 20ga, maybe 5/16" outside radius on 1/4" flat bar. Max you're probably only going to bend 1/2" wide of 1/4" thick material with this though. On 16ga you can probably get 3" wide,maybe 4". On 20ga you can go full width. Its great for making little L-Brackets or other random small parts. DO NOT, I say again, DO NOT try to bend round bar with this. The dies are NOT tool steel. They're likely not even grade 50 or hardened. Its probably just A36 carbon steel for the blade and literally ANY round bar will put a divet in the blade, just too much pressure in a small spot. Other than that it functions fine, its easy to use once you add the claws I mentioned above its quick and sturdy. Its a decent value for the money, just dont expect too much.

when not in use small enough to fit in a toolbox drawer and not take up space.

While I was able to been 1/4" aluminum while using heat, the magnets no longer have enough strength to stick to the vice. I have to hold them by hand while holding the sheet in trying to bend.
