The Malco 24" Drip Edge Folding Tool (DEFT24) is purpose-built for pro roofers who demand clean, repeatable folds along the drip edge of standing seam metal roofing panels. With two fixed folding seams, this tool delivers precise 1" (25.4 mm) and 1-1/2" (38.1 mm) bends in up to 22-gauge steel, turning a tricky edge detail into a dependable, high-quality finish.

  • Two rib-reinforced steel plates permanently welded to create two folding seams for accurate 1" and 1-1/2" bends
  • Capabilities designed for maximum 22-gauge (0.76 mm) steel, making it ideal for common standing seam panel trims
  • 24" length aligns with standard roofing panel widths, enabling efficient, full-edge folds along long runs
  • Heavy-duty fiberglass-filled reinforced nylon handle provides durable, lightweight leverage for overhead or bench work
  • Reduces user strain by delivering high leverage and a straightforward, repeatable folding process

Why this tool stands out: it eliminates guesswork in drip-edge formation by offering built-in, fixed fold lines, so each bend aligns perfectly with your panel configuration. The ENHANCED handle design pairs strength with comfort, letting you work overhead without fatigue and tackle extended installs with confidence.

Ideal use scenarios

Installers shaping drip edges on 24" standing seam roofing panels, metal fabricators fabricating trim for perimeter edges, and shops producing pre-formed drip components will benefit from the DEFT24’s precision and efficiency. It’s the right choice when you need consistent bends, clean edges, and faster completion times on medium-gauge metal work.

Practical tips for best results

  • Confirm panel and edge specifications before folding to ensure the correct bend depth
  • Use steady, controlled pressure to engage each folding seam for crisp edges
  • Store in a dry environment to preserve the welded plate integrity and handle performance

With the Malco DEFT24, you gain a reliable, purpose-built solution for drip-edge fabrication that enhances accuracy, reduces effort, and helps you deliver a professional standing seam roof finish every time.
