TurboXTools™ Quarter Panel Hemming Air Tool
SEMA BEST NEW COLLISION REPAIR & REFINISH PRODUCT 2014 AWARD
November 4, 2014, SEMA Show, Las Vegas, Nevada
Use air power to bend and close wheel arc flanges of replacement quarter panels. The QHT1A Air Powered Hemming TurboXTool replicates a hammer and dolly motion at high speed, with greater precision, less fatigue and faster results. Up to 80% faster based on field trials! Hemming the wheel arc of a quarter panel with this Malco TurboXTool is a smooth, controlled operation. The user can quickly hem replacement quarter panels on late model cars with a range of wheel arc flange widths up to 3/4 inch (19.05 mm). A rubber cushioned anvil protects the quarter panel from scratches and scuffs and allows the anvil and stop pegs to be aligned along the finished side of the wheel arc flange while the hammer head works from the backside. A rounded “bull nose” hammer face is used on the initial pass to quickly roll over the flange edge. A change out to the Flat Face side of the hammer head is used to close and seal the flange in one easy pass. The anvil and working hammer may be cleaned of any adhesive residue, resulting from the hemming operation, by using a common solvent. The long-wearing anvil and hammer are replaceable and easily installed on the job.
