SWAG Off Road 20 Ton Finger Brake DIY Builder Kit

Excellent product. This is the weld it yourself package. If you have the skills it's not difficult and saves some money. As for the quality of the product. I've easily done 90 degree breaks on 3/16" steel. Haven't had the need for doing anything thicker, but it handled that with ease. So I have no doubts as to the capabilities of this unit. I did pair it with a Torin 20 ton air/hydraulic jack which makes for an excellent setup. When welding the threaded rod sections into the steel tubes used for the stop I found that if you set them up into their position with the nuts and clamp everything down to your welding table with the stop supports square and true to the lower die section you will have a straight and true stop guide.

If your a experenced welder, the kit is a good way to save a few bucks

Looks great and the welds are clean. Functions pretty well as long as you don't need a tight radius. My only complaint is that two of the fingers do not meet up properly. Meaning that when the 60° angles were cut, one of them was a little off. Still works very well though.Overall a great buy.

WE RECEIVED OUR ORDER IN BETTER THAN EXPECTED TIME. THE WORKMANSHIP WASVERY GOOD SO WE COULDN'T WAIT TO GET TO WORK. WE DEDICATED ANOTHER 20 TON HF PRESS SO THIS IS SETUP AND READY. WE BOUGHT THE ASSEMBLED UNIT AND COULD NOT BE HAPPIER WITH IT'S PERFORMANCE. AMAZON COMBINED WITH SWAG OFFROAD IS A WINNING COMBINATION. THANK YOU BOTH. 20 TON Finger Brake "Fully Welded"

If you own a welder buy this brake. The brake is an essential tool for metal working and this is the perfect way to bend metal at home cheaply. I took it to work (fab shop) and had it together in 30 minutes. Worked first time exactly as it should no messing around.

The parts provided for fabrication were ok. The laser cut parts were really dirty. They should have been run through a tumbler. The machine work on the top die holder and clamp bar was excellent and fit very well. My biggest complaint was following the weld instructions provided. The lower V die should be stitched welded, not full weld. There’s no need to have that much weld, just stitch it and forget it. You WILL NEED to press flat if you full weld this angle iron in place.

This was exactly as describe. The instructions are spot on. My advice is.......go slow.....triple check the square of each item....tack then check again. Patience! Did mine with a stick welder. Wished I had a big mig welder. The welds would have been prettier.

Best money for a break you can spend
