About this product
Industrial Construction: The Baileigh HBR-4820 Straight Hand Brake is a rugged manual sheet metal brake engineered for light-duty fabrication tasks such as HVAC work, pans, channels, and other shallow forming applications. Its fully welded steel plate construction with support trusses on the top and bottom provides rigidity for consistent results.
Performance & Precision: With a 48″ (4 ft) working length and a capacity to bend 20 gauge mild steel (and 18 gauge aluminum), the HBR-4820 delivers accurate bends up to 120° across the full width of the machine. Right and left cam lever arms precisely clamp material while adjustable clamping pressure accommodates lighter work.
Ease of Use: This manual brake includes a standard floor stand and easy-to-operate cam lever system for controlled clamping and bending, making it well-suited for shops that require reliable, repeatable performance without power requirements.
