“Quick Cutting System” Aluminum Brake : Maximum Versatility and Performance

The Alum-A-Brake QCS aluminum brake is designed for contractors, siding installers, roofers and sheet metal workers looking for a professional brake equipped with an integrated quick cutting system.

This model is equipped with the Qcut™ System, which includes a track-mounted quick cutter, a cutter guide bar, a quick cutter stop and 2 fold-up bending handles. This configuration allows materials to be cut and bent directly on the jobsite with greater speed, precision and efficiency.
