Tapco10776 Sidewinder

This is a must have accessory if you own a tapco brake! I also own the cutter and with the combination of the two you can greatly increase your efficiency. Simply install your roll of coil stock face up or face down which is nice depending on what you are doing. Roll out you length cut and bend. No more hassling around trying to roll out the material clamping and scoring. Works just like it should, Excellent!

The side winder keeps the tool in place for easy access to faster bents

This coil stock dispenser is worth the price. It saves you from having to either set up a 10’ table to roll out coil stock to cut it, or unrolling it in the customers lawn, which gets it scuffed up and looks unprofessional. It is designed to work with the cut-off tool but there is a learning curve to getting the cuts to be square and straight. The outfeed jaws do not lock down on the coil like the brake does. They are spring loaded so you have to hold the coil in place with down pressure while cutting. Locking the brake down on the material while cutting helps.

This was the best purchase as it is a true time saver and helps keep your materials cleaner. Some people in the reviews said they had problems with it but it just takes a little common sense to use.

Great addition to my pro master 1400 brake

Greatest thing that I have ever bought. Second, only to the rolling cutter from tapco! Everyone should have a rolling cutter ; I used to use a utility knife to cut the pieces I needed, but the blade was marking up the bender. The next thing that I will buy is the profiler from tapco. They keep coming up with great ideas. Keep up the good work!!

This thing is way more expensive than it should be for what it is. It’s also lacking in design details. Mounting this to your brake will automatically lose you 6” of potential length of the bends you can make due to an overlap onto the brake. Also, when you get towards the end of a coil, it wants to uncoil and come out of the holder. I want to love it since it was so pricey, but no such luck. I will say, having it is better than not having it, but it could be wayyyy better.

Can't imagine not having this tool
