Baileigh BB-4816E 48" Manual Box & Pan Brake
Are you bending light-gauge sheet metal by hand and struggling to get consistent results on box and pan work?
What if your shop had a 48 inch manual brake that held its position through every bend and gave you clean, repeatable results without extra effort?
Meet the Baileigh BB-4816E 48" Manual Box & Pan Brake, a floor-standing manual brake built for accurate light-gauge bending work.
With a fully welded steel frame, 16 included hardened fingers, and a counterweight apron lift, the BB-4816E handles repeated bending cycles without losing accuracy.
When the brake holds firm through a full-capacity bend, you can focus on the work instead of fighting the machine.

Baileigh BB-4816E for Box and Pan Bending Work
Fully Welded Steel Frame Holds Accuracy Under Load
The BB-4816E is built on a fully welded steel plate frame that resists flex during repeated bending cycles. A rigid frame keeps the bending beam aligned from one end of the 48 inch working length to the other.
16 Hardened Fingers Cover a Range of Box Configurations
Sixteen hardened fingers of varying lengths come included, allowing you to set up different box and pan configurations without additional tooling. Finger setback adjustment accommodates different material thicknesses so you can dial in the setup for the job.
Counterweight Apron Lift Reduces Effort at Full Capacity
A counterweight assist on the apron lift reduces the physical effort needed when bending at full 48 inch capacity. This keeps operator fatigue lower during longer production runs without adding mechanical complexity.
Floor Stand Keeps the Brake Stable During Use
The BB-4816E ships with a floor stand that holds the brake at working height and keeps it stable during bends. No external power is required, so placement in the shop is straightforward.
