Baileigh SR-5016 Slip Roller
The Baileigh SR-5016 is a professional grade electric slip roll machine that transforms flat sheet metal into precise curves and cylinders with ease. Designed for fabrication shops and HVAC professionals, this powerful machine handles 16-gauge mild steel across its full 1270mm (50-inch) working width, saving you time and eliminating the fatigue of manual rolling.
Are you tired of cranking sheet metal by hand? The SR-5016 brings motorized power to your workshop, making metal forming faster, easier, and more consistent than ever before. This three roll machine features two driven polished carbon steel rolls powered by a robust 1 hp motor, giving you enough power for virtually any job.
What sets this machine apart is its precision engineered construction. The upper frame is machined from solid plate steel, ensuring all three rolls stay in perfect alignment throughout the bending process. This means you'll get consistent, accurate curves every time, even when working at full capacity. The heavy duty welded steel base integrates directly with the uprights, creating a rigid structure that prevents deflection and maintains accuracy across the entire working width.
Built for professional environments, the SR-5016 is perfect for HVAC shops creating ductwork, general fabrication shops producing curved metal components, and automotive workshops shaping body panels. Whether you're rolling a single prototype or running production quantities, this machine combines power, precision, and user friendly operation to help you work more efficiently. With a 1-year parts warranty and lifetime technical support from experienced technicians, you're investing in a tool that's built to last and backed by expert assistance when you need it.
Applications
- HVAC Ductwork Fabrication: Create round and oval ducts, ventilation pipes, and custom ductwork components for heating and cooling systems
- Automotive Body Work: Form curved panels, fenders, wheel arches, and custom body components for restoration or custom builds
- Architectural Metalwork: Shape decorative metal elements, curved facades, column covers, and structural components for construction projects
- General Sheet Metal Fabrication: Produce cylinders, cones, and curved parts for industrial equipment, machinery housings, and custom fabrication projects
- Wire and Rod Rolling: Use the three integrated wire grooves to form wire, rod, and small diameter materials into curved shapes
- Roofing and Flashing: Create curved roofing components, custom flashing, gutters, and downspouts for residential and commercial projects
Key Features & Benefits
- Power When You Need It: The 1 hp motor drives two rolls simultaneously, giving you consistent forming power that makes light work of 16-gauge mild steel. You'll handle jobs faster without the physical strain of manual operation.
- Precision Machined Construction: The solid plate steel upper frame is precision-machined to keep all three rolls in perfect alignment. This means your curved pieces come out accurate and consistent, reducing rework and material waste.
- Hands-Free Operation: The included foot pedal lets you control both forward and reverse rolling while keeping your hands free to guide the material. This makes operation safer and gives you better control over the forming process.
- Built-In Safety Features: Integrated emergency stops are positioned for quick access, helping you maintain a safe workplace. You can stop the machine instantly if anything goes wrong.
- Rock-Solid Stability: The all-steel lower base is fully welded and integrated with the uprights, creating a rigid structure that won't flex or deflect even when working at maximum capacity. This rigidity translates directly to more accurate bends.
- Versatile Material Handling: Can process mild steel up to 1.5mm (16 gauge) thickness across the full 1270mm working width. Three wire grooves are built in, so you can also roll wire and rod without additional tooling.
- Professional Support: You're covered by a 1-year parts warranty, and Baileigh backs this up with lifetime technical support by phone. Real technicians with hands-on experience are available to help you get the most from your machine.
- Ready to Work: Comes complete with a stand and working height setup, so you can start forming metal as soon as you unpack it. The 220V single-phase power requirement means it'll run in most workshop environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What thickness and width of material can this machine handle?
The SR-5016 is rated for mild steel up to 1.5mm thick (16 gauge) across its full 1270mm (50-inch) working width. For softer materials like aluminum, you may be able to work with slightly thicker gauges. For harder materials or stainless steel, you'll want to stay below the maximum rated capacity to ensure optimal performance and machine longevity.
Do I need special electrical requirements to run this machine?
The SR-5016 operates on 220V single-phase power, which is standard in most workshops and industrial facilities. You'll need a dedicated circuit with appropriate amperage for the 1 hp motor. If you're in a location with 110V power, Baileigh offers the SR-5016E model specifically designed for 110V operation.
How difficult is it to operate for someone new to slip rolls?
The SR-5016 is designed with user-friendly operation in mind. The foot pedal control keeps your hands free to guide the material, making it intuitive even for beginners. You simply place your sheet metal between the rolls, adjust the rear roll to set your desired curve radius, and use the foot pedal to feed the material through. Most users can produce quality curves after just a few practice pieces.
What maintenance does this machine require?
Regular maintenance is straightforward. You'll want to keep the rolls clean and free from debris, occasionally lubricate the adjustment mechanisms, and check that all fasteners remain tight. The precision-machined rolls should be protected from damage and kept rust-free. With proper care, this machine will provide decades of reliable service.
Can I use this machine for materials other than mild steel?
Yes! While it's rated for 1.5mm mild steel, you can successfully roll aluminum, copper, brass, and even thinner stainless steel. Softer materials like aluminum can often be rolled at slightly thicker gauges than the rated capacity. Always start with test pieces when working with new materials to ensure your machine can handle the specific thickness and material type you're using.
