Precision and Versatility: The precision-machined anvil and upper wheel assembly deliver exceptional control and accuracy, allowing users to shape metal with unparalleled precision. The English Wheel suits various applications, from automotive restoration to custom fabrication. This Bead Roller includes a popular 3/8″ Bead Die Set and Offset Die Set that you will need in most of your fabricating projects. With the Industry standard 22mm shafts you will be able to use most other die set available like the optional 20267 Eastwood Bead Roller Metal Fabrication Forming Dies. The requirement of load application and load-carrying capacity of roller dies must complement each other. The bead roller forming dies with a load-bearing capacity higher than the calculated value to resist the application load should be selected.

Highly Reliable: We use nylon, aluminum, or mild steel to manufacture the bead roller dies, therefore, our dies are chemically resistive and rust-proof.The following are the different types of bead rolling dies provided by us. These dies are utilized by auto body workshops, sheet metal fabrication workshops, and manufacturing units.

Items under 30kg will be shipped by either 24hr courier or 1st class Royal Mail depending on item and weight and size. The chemical resistance of the bead rolling machine should be enough to resist oil, lubricants, coolants, etc. on the surface.Power Bead Rollers: These bead rollers help in fabricating sheet metal of the highest quality. The versatile design of these electric sheet metal bead rollers helps save time and ensures efficiency. We offer power bead rollers in 16 and 18-gauge capacity. For several reasons, our dies are chosen by several customers. However, the following beneficial features of our bead rolling dies to make them stand out. I'm trying to roll a bead in a floor pan, I think off the top of my head it's about an inch wide, roughly a semi-circular shape. They were bought as a pair, I suspect it might just be that the photo isn't all that good, they do line up when they're on the machine. I'm not sure what you mean by offset, it's just a normal semi-circular stiffening rib. I do get some quite deep marks, as they're on the bottom of the panel it's not the end of the world as it'll be stonechipped when on the car, but I'd rather not have them there if I can avoid it.

Precision custom metal work is much easier when you have the right tools to get you started. We have many bead roller accessories to do more than what's possible with freehand methods. Metal forming dies will help you create deep channels, flanges and style lines in different sizes. With a bead roller fence, you'll have a guide for perfectly straight lines or offsets. Special kits will help you make steps, raised beads and other common automotive metal shapes. Step Dies: The dies are used for step rolling or overlapping two panels during auto restoration projects. These dies are available with us in lengths from 1/16ʺ to 1/4ʺ and 0.90ʺ. We also provide these dies in 45-degree orientation. Manual Bead Rollers: Manual bead rollers are operated by crank or wheel. These are used for strengthening thin metal pieces for turning them into rigid parts. The rollers are constructed from high-quality steel and aluminum components, which makes them durable. Our manual bead roller model WFBR24M can be used to cut 16-gauge aluminum and 18-gauge steel. We know that people have different preferences and needs for metal working. That's why the Eastwood R&D team has developed several sheet metal bead roller options for various parts. Our manual bead rollers come in small and large sizes to mount on a workbench, vise or stand. For some extra power and more control over your creations, try an electric bead roller that comes with a stand and foot pedal control. There are also tube bead rollers for creating lines and cylinders. Each model can be used on steel, aluminum, stainless steel, copper and other common metals.
