## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential Standing Seam Tool
*by  on Reviewed in the United States June 13, 2023*

Installing my 1st stand seam roof. If you’re going to wrap the ends of your panels around the drip edge, this tool is essential. I’ve only used the one inch side of this tool. It makes perfect, controlled bends. I’ve dropped this tool a bunch of times from a saw horse down to the garage floor with no bent corners. This tool is well made. When I was shopping for a bending tool, there were lots of tools contractors used, online. I’m really glad I picked this one. Tip: I also bought a Malco 6” wide hand seamer. High quality and essential, also.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works goide!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States May 23, 2025*

Very good tool! It stands up to the task, and it works!How about that?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Modified to Work for My Roofing
*by  on Reviewed in the United States February 20, 2024*

I purchased this to hem some 16 inch standing seam roofing for an awning I built. I could not find this tool in the correct width for my project so I bought this 18 inch one and cut it down to fit. It worked perfectly and cutting it down caused no issues with the tool. I would say 15-7/16 inches is about as narrow as you can go on this tool without cutting into the handle.
