With a 19" throat depth — the industry’s largest — the PRO 19 delivers added value with more efficient bending, storing material inside the brake to reduce time-consuming handling and flipping of material. The 8’6” version of the PRO 19 weighs in at just 96 lbs. for maximum portability (10’6” and 12’6” versions are also available.)
The PRO 19 efficiently creates soffit, fascia, custom brick mold, gutter aprons, chimney flashing, drip edges, window casing and sill trim, and easily produces flashing for any roof application. It can bend 16 oz. copper sheet and coil, .030 soft aluminum and 28 ga. galvanized steel.
The locking system on Tapco brakes is also more efficient than others, using a pulling motion rather than a pushing motion, allowing you to be closer to the tool when working with large coil for example. The brakes’ individual bending handles also allow you to get closer to the work compared to loop-design handles that can inhibit proximity.
Tapco’s patented Moving Pivot Hinge allows increased bending power without marring materials, while dual locking handles provide fast, secure clamping. The brake’s unique hemming capability allows 180-degree overbends for more rigid panels.
Tapco’s available PRO Cut-Off™ roller shear can be used with the PRO 19 for easy factory-quality cuts through various metals and all vinyl. The Side- Winder™ Coil-feeding System holds coil securely, keeping it from blowing down the street or landing in a mud puddle. Other accessories include the Wheel Kit, Snap Stand™, PRO™ Cut-Off Gauge, Angle Gauge, Material Support Table and Brake Buddy® roll-forming tool
