Turn an Equipment Upgrade Into a Tax Advantage: Everything You Need to Know About Section 179 and Section 168 (k) Bonus Depreciation

Now might be the perfect time to upgrade your production line—with potential tax benefits that could make your new machine even more affordable.

If you’re considering adding a Serviform bender, rubber processor, milling machine, or a Cutlite Penta laser to your shop, Section 179 and Section 168(k) Bonus Depreciation could help you write off all or part of the equipment cost in the year it’s placed into service. These two tax incentives were created to encourage businesses just like yours to invest in their future—and many of our customers have taken advantage of them.

What Are They?

Section 179 allows qualifying businesses to deduct the full purchase price of new or used equipment (up to a certain limit) from their taxable income. This means you can see an immediate tax benefit for investing in your shop’s growth.

Bonus Depreciation (under Section 168(k)) provides an additional deduction—sometimes up to 100%—on eligible new equipment, which can further enhance your tax savings.

Why This Matters Now

If you’ve been planning a purchase, don’t leave potential savings on the table. With changes to tax laws happening each year, now is the time to explore your options.
