KANG MB-36 Straight Brake, Sheet Metal Folding Machine
The KANG MB-36, 915mm Sheet Metal Bending Brake is a manually operated sheet metal folder designed for home workshops, small fabrication shops, and automotive restorations. It features an all-steel construction with a detachable floor stand, giving users the flexibility to use it as a standalone station or remove the legs to mount it on a workbench. The bender is capable of creating simple bends up to 120 degrees in sheet metal, making it ideal for creating brackets, small pans, cable covers, and patches for auto body work.
Versatile Form Factor, Stand Included. This sheet metal bender comes with a dedicated stand. This frees up valuable workbench space in a crowded garage. However, the stand is removable, so it offers the best of both worlds.
Portability & Footprint. Weighing roughly 68 kg, it is substantial enough to stay stable during use but light enough to be relocated easily. Its small footprint makes it perfect for home garages where a large industrial brake would not fit.
Simplicity of Use. The design is a standard "leaf brake" with straightforward leverage handles. It requires no hydraulic power or electricity, making it reliable and virtually maintenance-free aside from occasional greasing.
Cost-Effective Solution. This is an entry-level bench folder. It provides a low-barrier entry point for hobbyists or small businesses that need to bend metal occasionally but cannot justify an industrial straight brake
Variable Capacity. Capable of bending up to 2.5mm mild steel on pieces up to 450mm wide, and 1.6mm mild steel on full 915mm wide sheets. Ideal for auto body panels, HVAC ducting, and light fabrication.
