Bending Die Sets for Sheet Metal Fabrication

Bending is the process of forming precise angles in sheet metal without causing cracks or deformation. It is essential for manufacturing brackets, enclosures, and structural components.

The Porta Press Bending Die Set enables efficient and accurate bending of small metal parts. Featuring a standard North American 1/2” x 5/8” tang, these die sets offer compatibility with pneumatic punch presses for flexible, repeatable bending operations during production.

Applications

• Forming brackets and mounting hardware
• Creating enclosures and housings
• Shaping structural sheet metal parts

The die sets deliver consistent bends with minimal mater
