If you need to press fit new bearings in or force old bearings out, you will like the hydraulic power of a shop press. They are also used for straightening or bending metal and can even power a die set. These machines come in different types. Manual, with hand pump, has spring return. Pneumatic using a air driven hydraulic pump is available in single acting (downward) with spring return (upward) or double acting (air powered down and up). Elecdraulic is available in single acting or double acting and works similar to pneumatic but uses an electric motor to power the pump and is more accurate than air driven. Scroll further down to see our Dake and HMI C-frame type presses. At the bottom of this webpage we show a Brake Press Tool that can be used with almost any hydraulic shop press.

Hydraulic presses use a pump to move hydraulic oil into the top of the cylinder to increase pressure, which moves the ram down. These machine can be purchased in different size capacities. These capacities are measured in tons. The pump can be either manually, electrically or air powered. Hydraulic presses can be used to press or pull bearings (pulling can only be done if press is double action), flatten material, bending material, punching holes, and some presses are for special uses such as pressing forklift tires on or off hubs. These procedures are done by placing the workpiece on the table of the press, aligning the ram with the location on the workpiece where the procedure needs to be done and placing the ram into motion (manually, electrically, or air) and the procedure is accomplished. There are different styles of hydraulic presses such as; H-Frame style which resembles the letter "H" in the way the frame is shaped, there are moveable table presses which make it easier to load and unload heavy workpieces, there are C-frame presses in which the frame resembles the shape of the letter "C", and some special designed ones, although the most common style is the H-Frame.

Turn your hydraulic shop press into an iron working machine with optional tooling:

Pipe Notcher shears pipe with a semi-circular cut to allow one pipe to fit perfectly against another. Very useful when making railings and tubular frames. Pipe Notcher

Notches pipe with a semi-circular cut to allow one pipe to fit 90° against another for railings. Then just a small amount of welding makes for a beautiful connection. Sizes from 1/2 to 2" schedule 40 pipe.

Heavy Duty Rod Shear photo Rod Shear

Shears 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, and 1" diameter round rod cleanly and quickly.

Angle Notcher tooling picture Vee-Notcher

Cuts a 3 x 3 inch V-shaped notch in steel that is up to 1/4 thick. Very useful for notching angle iron.
