A metal bead roller is a specialized fabrication tool used to shape, strengthen, and add decorative designs to sheet metal panels. It works by passing metal between two rotating, gear-driven dies (one convex, one concave) that press into the material to create a raised or recessed channel. This significantly increases a panel's rigidity and prevents oil-canning or warping.

Capacities:

• 18GA mild steel
• 16GA aluminum
