S6R Malco 6" Hand Seamer

Overview

The S6R Malco 6" Hand Seamer (S6R) is designed for professional sheet metal bending, straightening, and seaming across HVACR installation, roofing, siding, and commercial building and remodeling applications.

Technical Features

• Drop-forged, high-impact steel jaws with heat treatment — delivers consistent hardness and durability under repeated high-stress bending operations, extending tool service life.
• 6 in. wide jaw width — produces uniform, accurate bends across a wider work surface, minimizing buckling and bowing of sheet metal in a single pass.
• Compound head-to-handle leverage design — multiplies applied force mechanically, reducing the number of strokes required to complete bends and straighten angles.
• Rust-resistant nickel plating on jaws — protects against corrosion during long-term storage and use in demanding job-site environments.
• Hardened steel handles — resist deformation and abuse, maintaining structural integrity under heavy-duty use.
• Over-molded, non-slip handle insert with ergonomic contours — provides a secure, natural grip during operation and reduces hand fatigue over extended use.
• Single-hand operation with easy open/close latch — keeps the operator's secondary hand free to steady the work piece, improving precision and job-site safety.
• REDLINE handle opening geometry — engineered to maximize the leverage range of the compound linkage while accommodating a comfortable hand position throughout the full stroke.

Applications

• HVACR ductwork installation — bending and seaming sheet steel components to specification.
• Roofing and siding — forming accurate bends and straightening angles in non-ferrous and steel panels.
• Commercial building and remodeling — general sheet metal fabrication and fitting tasks requiring controlled, repeatable bends.
• All metal trades requiring precise hand seaming of sheet steel or non-ferrous metals.
