Digital Protractors

The PRO 360 and PRO 3600 are high performance, angle measurement tools that are sold exclusively through our network of industrial distributors. Both units have a One Year Limited Warranty, CE Certification and National Stock Numbers.* These state-of-the-art, angle measurement tools have features such as "Hold" which lets you to store the last reading taken with a touch of a button. They also have "Alternate Reference" (Alt Zero) which allows you to electronically zero the reading anywhere within the protractor's 360° range. The PRO 3600, in addition to higher resolution (0.01°), has an RS-232 port so you can output the angle measurement data to a computer. Both protractors can be easily fitted with an available, magnetic base or an array of custom attachments.

 Baileigh BB-4816M Magnetic Box and Pan Brake

Magnetic Sheet Metal Brake

The BB-4816M magnetic sheet metal brake is a unique box and pan brake that has endless bending possibilities when compared to conventional sheet metal brakes.  Requiring a common 220 volt, single phase power supply this folding machine can bend boxes or pans to almost any depth since it isn’t reliant on conventional finger depths.  A powerful magnet in the bending bed can be engaged by foot pedal or push button control to hold down a mild steel clamping bar of almost any configuration across the bed width or bed length.  The sheet metal is pinned between the magnetic mild steel clamping bar, at this point the bottom bending leaf can be lifted to complete the bend.
The mild steel clamping bar can be made of straight bars (of various widths if you had very tight boxes to make) for straight bends or segmented clamping bars for box and pan applications of any other configuration. Again, because of the unique design the operator is not limited to the depth of the item since you are no longer limited by finger length.
Our BB-4816M magnetic sheet metal brake can bend (items impossible for traditional box and pan brakes) totally enclosed boxes, triangles, alternate bends on varying planes, round items such as scrolling applications, and much more.  This bending machine is perfect for bending sheets of mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, coated materials, heated plastics, and much more.
The bottom leaf’s bending extension can be removed for the tightest bend dimension between bends of 5/8”.  A scaled stroke angle control can be set for repeatable bends time after time.  This magnetic box and pan brake comeswith product supports and adjustable back gauges for production runs, as well as a simple to use gap adjustments on the standard clamping bars for different sheet metal thicknesses.
To initiate a bend on the BB-4816M magnetic brake simply put a piece of material between the clamping bar to the depth required, hit the foot pedal control that softly clamps the material (this is done for operator safety so fingers are safely out of the machine) allowing for any repositioning, once ready, lifting the leaf arms engages full magnetic power (6 tons) holding the material in place as the leaf arm makes the appropriate bend.One of the biggest advantages of this type of box and pan brake is that the magnetic power of 6 tons is consistent across the entire beam allowing for very crisp bends even in the middle of the machine.
The BB-4816M magnetic box and pan brake is truly a breakthrough from the limits of traditional metal brakes.  It is the perfect folding machine for HVAC shops, industrial art shops, and general sheet metal fabrication shops.

Greetings!
Master Disc
I'd like to share some tips with you on how to care for your gages. Gages are a valuable tool for your business, and the investment made should be properly cared for to maximize your ROI.  With a proper care they can provide long service on the production floor. 
Gage Handling
 
Proper handling of gages will extend their useful life. 
  
 
  1. Most importantly be sure to protect the gages from heat and moisture.  After use, each gage should be wiped clean of fingerprints and contaminants, and then oiled with a rust inhibitor.  We recommend Tri Flow lubricant for gage maintenance. 
  2. We mention wiping off fingerprints because some people have a high level of acids in there skin oils and this will form rust almost within 24 hours.  If this is the case you can actually see the latent fingerprint in the form of rust.
  3. Keep the humidity to a minimum.  50% if possible.
  
Once rusted the gage in most cases is ruined! 

Proper Use
 
A few simple rules when using the gages.
  • Clean the parts before gaging to remove dirt, coolant, or metal chips.
  • Do not force the gage, use light pressure
  • Inspect for nicks or burrs before each use, this will eliminate innaccurate results.
When using plug gages for go no-go inspection the go member should fit into the work piece to indicate to the operator that the component meets the correct specifications.  The no-go member should not fit into the work piece.  If it does this indicates to the operator that the component has been machined incorrectly and is out of specification.
Plug And Pin Gages:  What They Can Do 
 
 What Plug Gages Are:
  • Used to inspect holes and or slots for pass or fail conditions only
  • Used as masters for setting micrometers, verniers, or calipers.
  • Check locations, and distance between holes
What Plug Gages Are Not:
  •  Resizing tools, or reamers
  • Debur tools, or clean out tools
  • Used to measure the exact or actual size
Call us today for a distributor near you, we can help preserve your gage investment.  We offer replacement gage pins for sets along with gage handles for ease of use, and preservatives to prevent rust and corrosion. You'll also save time and money by regularly making a list of pins missing from your gage sets.  The cost and time spent searching for that lost pin is almost always guaranteed to cost you more especially if it delays production or delivery of your customers order. 

Sincerely,

James Meyer

Baileigh 220V Pipe and Tube Abrasive Notcher TN-400

When it comes to #Metal #Fabrication it goes without saying that you better have some sort of equipment from #Baileigh Industrial. 
Take a look at the video below on the TN-400 and see the thing in action. 

You can order it here at the best price on the Internet
http://www.lighttoolsupply.com/catalog/tn-400




Abrasive Tube and Pipe Notcher

Baileigh Industrial is proud to introduce our new Baileigh TN-400 abrasive tube and pipe notcher. This notching machine is perfect for coping the ends of 3/4" OD to 2" OD tubing or pipe at almost any imaginable angle from 0 to 60 Degrees. It uses a powerful 3 hp motor that requires 220V single phase to turn the 79″ x 4″ belt at speeds of 5420′ per minute. The TN-400 pipe notcher can notch through tube or pipe in seconds giving you the perfect fit every time. This tubing notcher has a quick release taper lock mechanism for loosening the vise for making angle or position adjustments in seconds with no tools.
The vise carriage rides on a smooth Thompson shaft assembly for precision and ease of movement during the notching cycle. The engagement lever is pivoted to make notching effortless for the operator. The vise is self centering for perfect belt positioning every time. The jaws on the vise are of a V-block design to keep the part on center with the notching spindle, to hold the part more securely. The TN-400 tube notcher has a carriage stop for repeatable notches every time. The vise has an offset adjustment when more metal is required for strength required on certain areas of hand railing or chassis for rock climbers or dirt track cars.
Baileigh Industrials abrasive pipe notcher requires different size mandrels for each different OD intended to notch. Mandrel changing is made easy on the TN-400. All that is required is take off the quick change side guard, then loosen the belt tension hand wheel so the belt can be slid off, so the operator can change out the mandrel with a new size in seconds. Like all of Baileigh Industrial tube notcher machines, the TN-400 pipe notcher is built to the highest standards using only industrial grade materials. Please call a Baileigh Industrial representative for further information on this notching machine. This tubing notcher model is typically in stock for quick turnarounds.
