Hand seamer
Nguồn dữ liệu từ Wikipedia, hiển thị bởi DefZone.Net
A hand seamer is a manual sheet metal hand tool used to grip, bend, flatten, fold, or seam thin metal edges. It is commonly used in HVAC, roofing, siding, and general sheet metal work for making straight bends, forming edges, and adjusting seams by hand. Hand seamers are especially useful for small jobs, touch-up work, and places where a larger sheet metal brake would be impractical.
Background
[edit]Hand seamers typically have broad, flat jaws and long handles that provide leverage. Some models have straight jaws, while others have angled jaws for working around obstructions or in tighter spaces. Jaw widths vary depending on the intended use, with common sizes including 3-inch and 6-inch versions.
The tool is often used to form hems, seams, and flanges in sheet metal. In building trades, it may be used when fitting ductwork, shaping flashing, closing seams, or making small bends in metal panels.[1][2]
