FEATURES:
TENNSMITH'S BENCH BRAKES ARE RUGGED, DEPENDABLE USA-MADE TOOLS THAT WON'T BREAK YOUR BUDGET. THE MODEL HBU48-16 IS A HEAVY-DUTY BENCH BRAKE SUITABLE FOR BOX AND PAN OR STRAIGHT BENDING IN UP TO 16-GAUGE MILD STEEL. THE BRAKE FEATURES A REMOVABLE APRON ANGLE AND APRON INSERT PERMITTING 1/4-INCH REVERSE BENDS IN LIGHTER MATERIALS. THE UPPER LEAF AND NOSE BAR HAS A WIDE RANGE OF ADJUSTMENT FOR RADIUS BENDING. STANDARD EQUIPMENT INCLUDES AN APRON STOP ROD FOR REPEAT BENDS, EXTENSION HANDLES AND A COUNTERWEIGHT. THE MODEL HBS48-16 IS IDENTICAL IN FEATURES AND CAPACITY TO THE HBU48-16 BUT IS INTENDED SOLELY FOR STRAIGHT BENDING.

TENNSMITH'S BENCH-MOUNTED HAND BRAKES PROVIDE AN ECONOMICAL MEANS OF PERFORMING A WIDE RANGE OF SHEET METAL BENDING AND FORMING OPERATIONS. THESE BRAKES ARE OF ALL-STEEL WELDED CONSTRUCTION, READILY ADJUSTABLE, AND UTILIZE BRONZE BEARINGS AT PIVOT POINTS.

RADIUS BENDING AND FORMING INFORMATION:
TENNSMITH HAND BRAKES COME EQUIPPED WITH 1/64-INCH RADIUS NOSE BARS AND FINGERS AS STANDARD EQUIPMENT. WE RECOMMEND CLEARANCES BETWEEN THE EDGE OF THE NOSE BAR AND BENDING APRON OF TWICE THE MATERIAL THICKNESS FOR 16-GAUGE AND HEAVIER MATERIALS AND ONE AND ONE-HALF TIMES THE MATERIAL THICKNESS ON LIGHTER THAN 16-GAUGE MATERIALS. THIS WILL APPROXIMATE A 1/64-INCH INSIDE RADIUS ON THE WORK PIECE. LARGER RADIUS BENDS CAN BE MADE USING THE STANDARD NOSE BAR BY ALLOWING MORE CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE EDGE OF THE NOSE BAR AND BENDING APRON.
