The MetalAce 44F U-weld English Wheel Kit
This kit provides all the components necessary to build the popular 44F, a go-anywhere wheeling machine to meet all your metal shaping needs. Use the supplied blueprints to build a replica of our frame, or add your own creativity and customize your frame and use our high quality wheels and components.
The included screw lift assembly has a quick-release cam mechanism that lowers the anvil yoke with a 90 degree rotation of the handle. This makes it easy to get the material out and return back to the original pressure setting, plus the anvils can be changed quickly in this fashion. The anvil yoke has precision adjustments on both sides of the axle support to true the anvil with the top wheel. (Material for the frame is not included.)
Check out the wheel designed by Jeff Fournier and built by one of our workshop students using this kit!
INCLUDES:
(6) 3 inch wide anvil wheels: Flat, 2.5, 3.75, 6.0, 12.0, and 24.0 inch radii
8 x 3 inch upper wheel
Jack, kick wheel, yoke, and hardware
