Baileigh MSS-18 18 Gauge Foot-Operated Shrinker Stretcher

Shrinking and stretching sheet metal by hand often means swapping tooling between each function, slowing down panel work. The Baileigh MSS-18 Shrinker Stretcher keeps both jaws ready in separate housings, so you move between shrink and stretch cuts without stopping to change tools.

• Separate Shrinker and Stretcher Housings Eliminate Tool Changes - The jaws are mounted in distinct iron housings, so you switch from shrinking to stretching without swapping tooling.
• Foot Pedal Control Frees Both Hands for the Work - The foot pedal engages the machine while both hands stay on the metal to guide and position it.
• Cast Iron Frame Holds Up to Repeat Forming - Heavy cast iron construction resists flex and wear through repeated shrink and stretch cycles.
• 1.5" Throat Depth Reaches Panel Edges - The 1.5 inch throat depth lets you work close to edges and curves on automotive and aircraft panels.

On a fender panel or aircraft skin, the MSS-18 keeps shrink and stretch work moving without stopping to change tools.
