Light duty bending brakes are for light forming requirements (up to 16 gauge mild steel). When used within their rated capacity, they will form a minimum 1/2" flange over their entire length.

• Maximum Rated Capacity: 16 gauge mild steel

The PX24 Box and Pan Brakes adjustable back gauge are ideal for small, precise box and pan work (up to 3" deep). It will accommodate sheet metal up to 16 gauge. The PX24 will bend as much as a 135¡ angle in up to a 24-inch length. Standard fingers provided include one each 3/4", 1", 1 1/4", 1 1/2", 3", 4 1/2", and 6". Fingers are heat-treated die steel, precision ground. Set of fingers can be arranged to form 3/4: to 24" in 1/4" increments. Back gauge adjustment is from 0-24". Adjustable friction brake lock stops upper bar dead-weight drop and permits precise positioning of upper bar to scribed line on workpiece before final clamping. The pan brakes have optional special fingers to adapt them to inside mitered lip boxes, 9" long square tubes and radius bends up to 1". The floor mount stand shown must be ordered as a separate item.

Minimum 1/4" (PX24) reverse bends are possible with these light duty brakes by removing both the apron angle iron work support and apron filler plate and reducing the capacity by four gauges.
