Manual Panbrake Folder W-4812
The manual pan brakes W-4812 is a heavy-duty manual sheet metal bender. Designed for professional and serious DIY workshops, it excels at forming boxes, pans, trays, enclosures, and custom profiles with precise bends up to 135°. The W-4812 is an upgraded model in KANG's lineup, offering greater capacity than their standard 1.5mm pan brakes (like the W-4816Z), making it ideal for thicker materials in automotive restoration, HVAC fabrication, and custom metalwork. It's fully manual with a robust all-steel construction, emphasising durability and ease of use without needing electricity or hydraulics.
Higher Material Capacity. The bender max. work with 2.5mm mild steel plate, tackles thicker sheets for heavy-duty jobs, like truck panels or industrial trays without strain.
Rigid Steel Construction for Accuracy. Fully welded steel frame ensures high bending precision and minimal flex, delivers straight, repeatable 0°–135° bends on heavy sheets.
Adjustable Clamping & Blade Gap. Eccentric cams and pressure settings prevent material crush while enabling radii adjustments, safer and faster setup for mixed thicknesses.
Counterweight-Assisted Operation. Built-in balance system eases deep bends, reduces operator fatigue on long runs, a step up from pure manual levers on basic models.
Versatile Segmented tooling. Interchangeable hardened fingers allow for complex boxes, pans, and channels down to 25–50 mm flanges, more flexible than fixed-blade folders for custom fab.
Wide Material Compatibility. Excels on mild steel, aluminium (up to 3 mm), and stainless (1-1.5mm), versatile for restorers or fabricators switching jobs without retooling.
Repeatable Precision. Built-in adjustable apron stop rod, set your angle once, get identical bends every time on batch jobs (e.g., multiple HVAC pans).
