Press Brake kit comes un-assembled, you do the final assembly and welding. Designed to fit the Harbor Freight 20 ton hydraulic press Item # 32879 & 60603. Press brake kit includes an adjustable back stop for accurate and repeatable bends.
The top clamping bar is machined out of 4140 material and includes 5 segmented removable sections. 1", 2", 3", 4" and 9.5" long pieces. These segmented blocks can be removed and rearranged to allow bending of restricted areas on a piece of sheet metal or on an already partially formed pieces.
The heavy duty press brake kit has the same quality construction and number of components as the standard press brake kit, however the differences are as follows. The bottom formed channel on the HD press brake kit is cut out of high strength 3/8" thick steel and the bottom "V" die of has a total size of 3.75" wide x 1/4" thick to allow for easier bending of thicker material.
- Max Bending Radius (deg.) 110
- Max Bending Capacity 5/8" plate
- Max Bending Width 19.25"
- Total width of the brake is 22.125" wide
Tools required for assembly, welder, grinder, level, small square.
It Is capable of bending mild steel in the following length and thickness.
- 19" = Full bending width of the bottom die on anything 3/16" or thinner.
- 15" in 1/4"
- 13" in 5/16"
- 11" in 3/8"
- 6" in 1/2"
- 3" in 5/8"
The HD DIY 20 ton press makes a great addition to the arbor press plates we sell HERE.

Customer Reviews
I Received the DIY kit and was able to assemble it for my 20 to shop press. I am impressed with the quality of materials and kit packaging. I am looking forward to my future project where this will be a key player.
The brake works well. Easy to assembly per the direction given with the brake. I will be buying other brake parts from SWAG.
Great product, works exactly like it should! I won't hesitate to buy anything swag off-road sells.
In retrospect, I see how what I did was dumb, but the instructions could have warned me. For example, they warn you (for the finger press) *not* to weld the tubes to the threaded plate, even tho, ya, this seems obvious - bc it doesn't hurt to give such a warning.
My goof was that I welded the tubes to the finger mount (machined plate with the logo text) by laying the finger mount and the tubes on my table. So the tubes were "aligned" with that whole piece, but NOT centered with the actual fingers (which of course are offset). I first spot welded it, checked for alignment by putting the assembly on the pins and it was all straight, went up/down nicely. BUT, I didn't mount the fingers! So, once it was fully welded and fingers mounted, the fingers were off by 3/8 inch. I then had to borrow a friend's band saw and painstakingly cut thru the very thick, very hard tig weld 🙄.
What I did to get it perfect was wrap paper around the pins (to make up the difference in ID/OD), put the whole assembly on my press, put the tubes on the pins (no springs, used vice grips on the pins to rest the tubes at the correct height) and then clamped the knife to the assembly using the press. Then I tacked it, then tried it up and down before taking it all apart and finishing the welds.
Hello,
Sorry to hear that you had some trouble assembling your brake.
I do apologize if there was some confusion but Step 2 of the assembly instructions state that you should, 'Use one of the finger inserts to provide a visual reference and center the guide tube.' This intended to direct the customer to center the rods on the fingers. I will make sure to update the instructions so the direction is more clearly written.
Glad to hear you got the brake assembled and based on the description you provided, I imagine it should be pretty darn centered!
Don't hesitate to reach out to us if any questions come up.
Thank you,
SWAG Off Road
