The TAPCO Professional “Side-Winder”

NEW AND IMPROVED!
The TAPCO Professional “Side-Winder” Coil
Holder attaches in seconds to the end
of your Pro 2000 ® or Pro-III ® Port-
O-Bender ® , standard or heavy duty
models, and allows you to feed coil
directly into the jaws of your Bender eliminating
the need for a separate layout table
and decreasing the damage from handling
coil stock—especially on windy days.
In a fast and simple one-man operation,
you first draw out coil along the length
of your Port-O-Bender. A self-locking
clamping bar then holds the coil firmly in
place while you quickly cut it off using the
same Pro Cut-Off you use on your Port-
O-Bender. In just seconds, you’re ready for
bending. An automatic tension bar keeps
the coil tight in its cradle and factory fresh.
The coil cradle quickly detaches from the
Side-Winder to allow fast and easy coil
changes on or away from your Port-O-
Bender and enables you to switch from
finish side up or down or make alternate
coil changes in seconds.
