These metal formers are great for making smooth radius bends in sheet metal without cutting, heating or hammering the material. Reproduce just about anything with a curved edge. Mount on a workbench, in a vise or on a stand.
Use the shrinker to contract metal and to make inside curves. Use the stretcher to expand the metal for outside curves.
Cast iron body with hardened tool steel jaws for exceptional durability and long life. Each 12-lb. unit comes completely assembled and ready to use.
