KAKA INDUSTRIAL FSM-16 Metal Shrinker Stretcher, High Quality Manual Metal Forming Shrinker Stretcher With Foot Pedal, 6" Throat Depth, 16 Gauge Mild Steel Capacity

If you really need a deep throat shrinker/stretcher and can't afford the top of the line stuff then this is the shrinker to get. Anything cheaper doesn't work. I know as I bought the $400 stuff and regretted it. This item works well right out the box. I did have to rotate one of the dies so the separation gaps didn't line up but that was the only mod from stock. As for performance, in non deep throat flange shrinking it shrinks about twice as fast as a tuned up HF shrinker. I'm happy. I recommend it.

This seems to be working quite well for an imported unit. I use it for automotive restoration in making panels.It's maybe a little overpriced but choices are either cheap junk or very expensive. This one is in the middle.

The media could not be loaded. Great tool, I recommended, I used on metal roofing fabrication.

This tool seems very well built. I haven't put much time on it yet but I have no worries about its longevity. It is heavy duty with grease zerks where they're needed on the pivot points on the head. It shipped in a crate also, which was nice for keeping everything together and in good shape.
