Tapco 50th Anniversary Brake
To mark the anniversary of the first-ever portable brake for the aluminum siding market, Tapco Integrated Tool Systems released its 50th Anniversary Brake, which includes several improvements to the original design. A moving-hinge system eliminates hinge wear and material scraping and allows the hinge to be easily removed for cleaning and lubricating. Improved hinge geometry allows for easier bending while a dual-durometer urethane strip grips work pieces but is rigid where metal is pressed against the brake’s anvil.
Editors’ Comments: Tapco made a great, timeless tool even better.
