Why should I choose a Tapco brake over other brands?

Our one-piece anvil ensures consistent, accurate bends—avoiding issues common with multi-piece anvils. Each brake comes fully assembled and ready to use right out of the box. Our moving pivot hinge, field-proven for 40+ years, outlasts competitive all-aluminum hinges that create excess friction, making bending harder and increasing the risk of galling and binding. Tapco brakes are built to perform, job after job.
