The Biegetec Finish Seamer is the top new tool introduced to the standing seam industry for 2017. This seamer has been receiving high praise since its introduction approximately a year ago. The PVC insets keep the seams from getting marred up in the closing process and ultimately allow you to create a better roof for your customer. This seamer can be considered a “combo tool” in the sense that it will complete the first AND the second locks of a standing seam system. This tool is designed to work with seam widths of 1/2″, heights will vary 1″-1.5″.

“Words alone cannot express how thrilled I am to find this tool. I have been battling round downspouts for over 20 years trying to make them look as good as possible. I never knew the expander existed until I discovered the Stortz website by accident. The tool replaces all of the frustrating effort to make round downspouts look their best. I absolutely love this tool. It is definitely one of the greatest discovery I’ve ever made professionally. Thank you Stortz.”

This product is a game changer for Half Round installers. The expander is simple to use and gives you such a professional look as compared to crimping your downspouts connections. Subtle differences like these are what separate the average installers from the top notch ones.

Steadman Hand Tongs
For years people have been complaining about the discontinuing of Steadman 45° hand tongs. The Steadman Tongs were introduced in 1968 by Al Steadman who was manufacturing out of his home shop at the time and grew to become a tool of high demand in the PA, NY & Ohio markets. Manufacturing of this tong had stopped for years until its recent resurrection. The balance, size and feel of each cast tong is what makes them so sought after. Cast, ground, drilled and pinned in the USA, the Steadman tong is back!

Bessey Ideal Cutting Snips
Tough snips that can handle cutting steel or naturals like copper & zinc. The smooth blades leave a really nice finish to the cut and the offset handles keep your hands raised above the material for continuous cuts. Snips only have so many features to brag about, but try a pair and feel the difference in these Bessey Ideal snips.
I do like your downspout expander. How much is the 3″ round?
Thanks for sharing the details about these new tools specially Biegetec Finish Seamer, this would help a lot with standing seam roofing projects.
