12 & 20 Ton Hydraulic Shop Press – Heavy-Duty Press with Gauge for Automotive & Metal Work

Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Shop Press Series

12-Ton and 20-Ton H-Frame Presses with Integrated Pressure Gauges

OVERVIEW

Equip your automotive repair facility, custom fabrication shop, or serious home garage with our Professional Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Shop Press Series. Engineered to tackle the most demanding mechanical tasks, these robust H-frame presses make removing stubbornly seized bearings, pressing bushings, and straightening bent metal components effortless. Available in a compact 10886.2 kg (12 Ton) model and an ultra-powerful 18143.7 kg (20 Ton) configuration, each unit features a vertical hydraulic single pump system paired with an integrated, high-visibility pressure gauge. Constructed from heavy-duty structural steel and outfitted with a highly adjustable working bed, these presses deliver precise, controlled pressure for a massive variety of professional applications.

SYSTEM HIGHLIGHTS

• Precision Pressure Monitoring: Both models feature an integrated, top-mounted pressure gauge, allowing operators to monitor the exact hydraulic force being applied to prevent shattering delicate gears or crushing aluminum housings.

• Heavy-Duty Steel H-Frame: The massive structural steel frame resists flexing or bowing under maximum load, ensuring the hydraulic cylinder applies perfectly perpendicular pressure to the workpiece every time.

• Highly Adjustable Working Bed: Features a heavy-duty bed that can be quickly raised or lowered via thick steel locking pins, accommodating everything from long transmission shafts to small alternator armatures.

• Smooth Hydraulic Operation: The vertical single pump system delivers smooth, consistent ram travel, providing the exact control needed for pressing tight-tolerance U-joints and pulleys.

• Versatile Shop Applications: The ultimate tool for arbor press jobs, metal bending, straightening thick steel brackets, and seating pressure-fitted suspension components.
