Description
The MB48B "Pan Style" Mini-Brake is engineered to fabricate drip pans, register boxes, and complex corners for flashing and fascia directly on the job site. Weighing just under 100 pounds (45 kg), it can be easily carried by two people or quickly separated into anvil and table components for transport by one person. The MB48B can be operated on a workbench, tailgate, or optional legs to produce 135° bends in 22-gauge (0.86 mm) galvanized steel with a maximum width of 48 inches (1.2 m). Its 5/16-inch (7.9 mm) plate-steel table apron and anvil frame, featuring adjustable set-back and strengthening ribs, ensure uniform bends. Cam-over-center clamps keep the anvil secure in any position for safe operation. For making pans and boxes, the full anvil consists of 16 movable, plate-steel fingers: five 2-inch (50.8 mm), six 3-inch (76.2 mm), and five 4-inch (101.6 mm) fingers, allowing for a maximum bending width of 48 inches (1.2 m). The minimum bending width is limited to the 2-inch (50.8 mm) finger width. The anvil clearance accommodates flange-height dimensions ranging from 1/2 to 3 inches (12.7-76.2 mm). The absence of a fixed throat depth also makes the MB48B ideal for fabricating large ductwork, flashing, and fascia components on the job.
