MC028X Metalcraft Practical Twister (With Slotted Adapter)

Practical Twister c/w Slotted Adapter

Code MC028X

The MC028X Practical Twisting Tool is the smallest Metalcraft twister in our range and is a very useful part of our practical range of tools, especially for those wanting to add to metal twisting to their ornamental metalwork projects. With a maximum working capacity of 20mm x 3mm, this steel twister can also twist 10mm square bar with it’s standard gripping collar fitted.

The tool is also supplied with a special slotted adaptor set which not allows faster repetitive twisting when using flat bars but also allows bars twists to be incorporated on “S” or “C” scrolls formed at each end of metal bar on our series 2 scroll formers. For this reason, many customers always prefer to have the adaptor components fitted and use the standard collar only if square bars need to be twisted.
