Malco, FS1DS - 1 Station Disc, Small

When you need to get the job done right and on time, you need professional-grade Metal Disc Benders by Malco, featuring removable discs for quick disassembly and mid-panel tool removal.

Why choose a 1-station model? These tools are best for short bends and curves!

Form 90°-180° bends to create hems and other details in any panel length on the jobsite, without waiting on wholesale roll formers. Metal Disc Benders by Malco are designed to form bends in a wide variety of materials for finishing custom straight or curved metal roofing details such as open hems for facia details, ridge caps and other interlocking features. HVAC pros can also use Malco’s Disc Benders for field-forming ductwork and creating open hems to prepare for drives.

Three sets of bearing guides glide smoothly along material to follow the initial bend. Pair with the removable Disc Handle (FSH1) to make cross breaks in material, create designs and start bends on flat panels.

HVAC pros may also wish to pair the Disc Benders with a 1-Station or 2-Station Metal Bender to field-form rope hems and closed hems on the jobsite.

Malco’s Metal Disc Benders are built tough with premium CNC aluminum and stainless-steel components for more durability and stability, allowing for more precise and higher quality bends.
