If you want the tightest, single locks, look no further. The German made Draco K8 is a single lock seamer that does the job perfectly up to 22 gauge steel. If you’ve tried others, why not try this one?
AccuSeamer
The AccuSeamer has been selling for years now and it’s easy to understand why when compared to its 60lb counterparts.

This cordless power seamer soon became a seamer of choice in certain jobs that require maneuverability.
