Overview

The Porto-Metal Former makes the specialty angle needed in minutes. Can be used on the work bench or in a vise to make inside angles, outside angles, straight bends - even circles, to a radius as small as 3 inches. Jaws are made of hardened alloy steel. Works 18 gauge soft steel, 20 gauge stainless, 16 gauge aluminum up to 2" in width. 45 to 1 leverage for powerful press. Special malleable iron body will not break as we have found with cheaper imitations. Order #LSH-71 metal shrinker for inside angles. Order #LST-82 stretcher for outside angles. Wt. 12 lbs. each.

Either unit can be converted into its opposite by ordering complete conversion kit, includes jaws, blocks & wire.

Reviews

Works great. However, when I first started using it, the lever would bind. I took it apart and ground a bigger radius on the face of the lever. Works fine now.
