Product Description: The Baileigh BB-4816M-V2 is a heavy-duty 48 inch magnetic sheet metal brake that uses a powerful electromagnetic clamping system to hold material securely while forming. With an open-ended design, it allows fabricators to bend configurations that are impossible with traditional finger brakes — such as enclosed boxes, deep channels, and complex shapes — across its full width with precision and efficiency.
Industrial Forming Versatility: Designed for fabrication shops, prototype builders, and HVAC technicians, this magnetic brake bends up to 16 gauge mild steel and operates with 220 V single-phase power. The removable clamping bar system includes multiple bar sizes for maximum flexibility in forming straight bends or segmented bends for box and pan applications, making it a flexible tool for professional metalworkers.

Baileigh 48 " magnetic brake
Short and to the point ive owned two different brand magnetic brakes, one did not work very good the other burned up in about three weeks,,,,ive had the Baileigh for about a year it works ,,,its the real deal.

Very handy but not perfect bends
Very useful. You will likely need a buck booster. Longer bends tend to not stay straight - end up slightly curved. Might be strength of magnets in center of brake or flex of the clamping bar.
