Box and Pan Brake, 48 in Sheet Metal Brake, 16 Gauge Mild Steel, 16 Removable Fingers, Blade Gap Adjustment, Straight Brake, KAKA INDUSTRIAL W-4816Z |($1499.00Value)

Description

48-Inch Box and Pan Brake - W-4816Z finger brake is designed for forming boxes, trays, pans, covers, brackets, flanges, and straight bends in sheet metal fabrication, repair, school, and shop environments. 16 Removable Finger Segments - Includes five 2 in, six 3 in, and five 4 in hardened steel fingers, allowing flexible finger arrangements for different box widths, tray sizes, pan shapes, segmented bends, and custom sheet metal layouts. Full-Length Straight Brake Conversion - With the fingers installed in line, the brake can be used as a full-length nose bar for straight bending work, giving users both box-and-pan forming and straight brake functionality in one machine. Blade Gap and Finger Setback Adjustment - Adjustable blade gap and finger setback help users adapt the brake for different material thicknesses and bending radius needs, especially when working with thicker compatible sheet metal. 16 Gauge Mild Steel Capacity - Handles up to 48 in bending length, 16 gauge mild steel, 0-135 degree bending angle, 2 in max box depth, 1/2 in minimum reverse bend, and 5/16 in minimum mild steel flange.

KAKA INDUSTRIAL W-4816Z is a 48 in box and pan brake built for sheet metal projects that need removable fingers, adjustable blade gap, and straight brake flexibility.

This A/B test version emphasizes the machine's 16 removable finger segments, blade gap adjustment, and ability to function as a full-length straight brake when the fingers are installed in line.

The W-4816Z supports 16 gauge mild steel across a 48 in bending length with a 0-135 degree bending range. It is suitable for forming boxes, trays, pans, covers, brackets, flanges, straight bends, and custom sheet metal components.

Finger and adjustment features:

• 16 removable fingers: five 2 in, six 3 in, and five 4 in segments
• Segmented setup: arrange fingers for boxes, trays, pans, narrow flanges, and different opening widths
• Straight brake conversion: install fingers in line to use as a full-length nose bar for straight bends
• Blade gap adjustment: helps match different compatible material thicknesses
• Finger setback adjustment: helps increase bending radius for thicker compatible materials
• Two independent cam action levers: raise the beam above the bed for setup and part removal

Capacity and forming features:

• 48 in bending length: suitable for medium to larger sheet metal parts
• 16 gauge mild steel capacity: supports common fabrication and repair bending tasks
• 0-135 degree bending angle: supports angled bends, flanges, trays, boxes, and pans
• 2 in max box depth: supports deeper trays and formed parts
• 1/2 in minimum reverse bend: supports close reverse bends in compatible mild steel
• 5/16 in minimum flange: supports narrow flange bending in mild steel

Common applications:

• HVAC ductwork, flashing, ventilation components, and trim
• Auto repair panels, brackets, covers, and restoration work
• Metal trays, enclosures, cabinets, pans, and shop fixtures
• Fabrication shops, maintenance departments, schools, maker spaces, and hobby workshops

Safety and operation notes:

• Check finger segments, blade gap, finger setback, clamp lever, and beam levers before operation
• Keep hands clear of the clamping beam, fingers, apron, and bend line during use
• Match material type, gauge, bend length, and bend angle to the machine capacity
• Use stable support and proper lifting equipment when installing or moving the machine
