SERIES 3
Capstan Operated

Our series 3 scroll formers are designed to produce great looking and consistent shaped scrolls every time.

The Mk 2/3 scroll former produces very similar scrolls to the Mk 2/2(H) but its capstan operation overcomes the need for lots of clear bench spave around the 2 Series formers.

The Mk 3/3 is a step up from the Mk 2/3 as it produces larger scale scrolls from larger material sizes (in line with the Master Range of tools).

The Mk 3/4 scroll former produces slightly larger scrolls and can work heavier gauge metal making it ideal for industrial clients.

Main features of these include:

  • Rapid locking system for holding bars and releasing completed scrolls
  • Interchangeable segments enable various scroll profiles to be formed (Mk 3/3 and Mk 3/4)
  • Can scroll metal with fish tailed ends (Mk 3/3 and Mk 3/4)
  • Handle extension for delivering greater power (Mk 3/4)
  • Supplied with scroll former templates and magnetic markers for repeatable scrolls

Mk 2/3, Mk 3/3 & Mk 3/4

  • Easy-to-use
    •

  • For DIY and professional use
    •
  1. Locate end of steel bar into centre of tool and using locking bar (Mk 2/3 and Mk 3/3) or gripping teeth (Mk 3/4) to grip the end of steel bar. Make sure the steel bar rests on the base plate and is to the right of the the pressure roller. Before rotating handles clockwise to start scroll make sure pressure roller is set to the correct height for the width of bar being scrolled.

  2. Roate handles clockwise. As the handles are rotated, segments of the scroll former close up to form scroll. Keep rotating until desired shape and size achieved and if you wish to repeat the scroll exactly, use magnetic markers supplied to mark where the end of the scroll finishes making contact with the scroll formers segment.

    3.
  3. When complete, unlock central gripping system and lift handle and adjoining segments to release scroll.
    4.

The Mk 3/3 and Mk 3/4 Scroll Formers have the additional versatility of being able to produce a range of different scroll shapes and sizes because of the interchageable hinged segments.

Additionally, both scroll formers can work with bars with tapered (fish tailed) ends.
