Features

• steel
• Made in US
• 18-INCH LENGTH FOR UNIFORM, STRAIGHT BENDS ACROSS THE FULL SEAM: At 18 inches long, the 18F delivers consistent, even pressure from end to end eliminating the bowing and uneven folds that shorter folding tools produce on wider sheet metal stock. Ideal for drive cleats, duct flanges, register boots, trunk line end caps, and any application where a straight, professional-grade fold matters.
• TWO FOLDING DEPTHS IN ONE TOOL: 3/8" AND 1": The 18F features dual folding grooves: a 3/8-inch channel for drive cleat locks and shallow bends, and a 1-inch channel for deeper folds like joist panning, plenums, and register boot flanges. Switch between depths instantly. No tool swap, no setup time.
• BUILT-IN SIGHT HOLES FOR ACCURATE DEPTH ALIGNMENT EVERY TIME: Precision sight holes along the tool let you visually confirm your sheet metal is seated at the correct depth before folding eliminating guesswork and reducing rework on every bend. Consistent depth alignment means professional results whether you're a seasoned tinner or working sheet metal for the first time.
• PERMANENTLY JOINED TWO-STEEL HALF CONSTRUCTION FOR LASTING RIGIDITY: Delivering a rigid, wobble-free tool that holds its shape under repeated bending force, the 12F's seams are formed from two steel halves, permanently joined together. Handles up to 24-gauge sheet metal without flexing or deforming, job after job.
• MADE IN USA AND TRUSTED TRADE PROS: Tinners, HVAC installers, and roofing contractors have relied on Malco folding tools for decades of daily use. The 18F weighs in at 31 oz. and is also available in 12-inch (12F) for tight spaces and 24-inch (24F) for extra-wide stock.
