"Mark II TrimMaster Series"

We’ve also left you the ability to make fine-tune adjustments to this brake, though you may never have to. Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW), wedges are independently adjustable and replaceable should the occasion ever arise. After all, we believe a Van Mark brake is the closest thing to a “non-adjustment” brake you'll find out there.

The Mark II TrimMaster Commercial brake has additional "C" castings to handle medium grade metals with ease. Like the Contractor, the Commercial model provides all the bending power needed without sacrificing one of the most important features in a job site brake--portability.

Don’t Be Misled...
By claims of “non-adjustable” brakes. Van Mark gives you the control you want!!!

We won’t use smoke and mirrors to try and convince you that you need a non-adjustable brake. Some of our brakes have been out in the field 30 years without needing adjustment. But should the occasion arise, its nice to know you can adjust your Van Mark brake to best fit your work conditions, not ours. New Powerslot technology, developed by Van Mark, allows variable levering of the bending hinge along an accurate (curved), slot in the fixed hinge. The results are a truly unique bending experience that allows optimal bending power to be maintained along the point of contact with the material. Think of it as sliding fulcrum, which shifts during the arc of your bend thereby extending your leverage while decreasing the power needed to make the bend itself. In short, TrimMaster gives you more bend with less energy.

POWERslot technology gives you more bending power with less energy resulting in a truly unique bending experience. Added walls and hollows make TrimMaster brakes the toughest machines out there while providing the same long service life you’ve come to expect from a Van Mark Product.

The new Mark IV Industrial TrimMaster, also featuring new POWERslot technology, provides single user setup and operation in the shop and on the job site. Non-marring vinyl strips protect clad finishes leaving clean crisp bend lines and hems. Our unique cam-locking system clamps to the thickness of the material and not to a factory preset. Should you ever need to fine-tune your brake, each casting comes with indecent-dently adjustable UHMW wedges. While some brake manufactures have taken away your ability to make these adjustments, its nice to know TrimMaster gives you the choice, even if you never have to use it.

 - New Powerslot bending technology

1. Arcuate Hinge Design/Thick Hollow-Core Extrusions
The Mark II TrimMaster, featuring new POWERslot technology, takes more of your bending energy from the hinge axis and re-directs it to the bend itself. To keep your brake bending true for many years to come, thicker hollow-core extrusions have been added.

2. Handle Plugs Do Not Hit Ladder Rack
Handles detach quickly for transport while handle plugs do not hit ladderrack when top loading.

3. Non-Marring Vinyl Strips
The Mark II TrimMaster uses high grade polymers in the vinyl strips to prevent marring of materials during the bending operation.

4. Computer Designed Components
Van Mark uses computer designed components, including thicker walls when making the Mark II TrimMaster, ensuring years of dependable, trouble-free service.

5. Full length Key Way
Provides consistent locking pressure along the entire brake with less parts to wear out.

6. Aircraft Grade Aluminum Castings
The strongest computer designed castings in the industry provide the basis for the highest bending capacities you can get in a portable brake.

7. Patented Cam Locking System
Allows the brake to clamp onto the thickness of whatever material is being bent and seldom, if ever, requires adjustment (a claim supported by Van Mark owners everywhere).

8. Double Journals/Thermoplastic Bearings
Double journals with self-lubricating, thermoplastic (UHMW) bearings at every lock point ensures worry free operation in any climate.

9. Independently Adjustable Wedges
You may never have to adjust your Van Mark brake, but if needed, you still have that option.
