The JS Tools KSM155 is a professional quality foot-activated shrinker and stretcher unit made in Sweden. With a large 6-inch throat depth, it makes forming compound panels quick and easy. Shrink and stretch jaws swap out in seconds with the included wrench. Their unique oval-shaped design features a super-fine serration and reduces marking on your material. The leverage produced by the foot pedal geometry allows for extremely controllable, fatigue-free metalworking.
This tool is an excellent companion to our line of English Wheels or Planishing Hammers. It works great on sheet metal and aluminum alike and has specific jaws available for each for ultimate finish quality. Wheel it around the shop and use it anywhere because of the included wheeled base.
This is an extreme quality tool for the discerning metal worker, proven in top hot rod and aircraft shops around the world such as Ron Covell, Chip Foose and Kindig-it Design.
