Strength and Durability Are Never a Question "To demonstrate the structural integrity of Brent® wheels, a ton of clay was placed on the wheel head of a Brent® CXC for 12 hours. When the wheel was turned on, it made several flawless revolutions. The fact that the CXC not only supported the ton of clay, but actually turned it, is a tribute to the years of dedication to quality built into every Brent® wheel." Rick Taylor, Supervisor, Brent Division

"I've had my Brent for over thirty years. That's a lot of miles without a repair. I wish they made cars like that."

- Ron Korczynski, Artist and Educator, Natrona Heights, PA

"30 years ago I purchased a Brent electric wheel and have carried it around with me from location to location telling myself I was going to “do it” again. I brushed off the accumulated dust and turned it on, and it works like a charm – I was really surprised."

- Rick Clark
