Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between this shop press and a standard bottle jack?
This integrated system combines a 12-ton bottle jack with a rigid steel frame that provides controlled, precise force application for pressing operations. Unlike standalone bottle jacks that can be unstable, it offers adjustable work heights and stable pressing for precision tasks like bearing installation, gear removal, and metal forming projects.
How does the patented bypass mechanism protect the hydraulic system?
The U.S. Patent No. 5,946,912 bypass mechanism automatically releases pressure when maximum 12-ton capacity is reached, preventing internal damage to seals and hydraulic components that commonly occurs with overloading. This protection extends the life of your bottle jack hydraulic system and maintains consistent pressing performance over thousands of operations.
What size projects can this press handle with the adjustable bed?
The 8-position bed adjustment accommodates work pieces from 2-5/8 inches (67 mm) minimum working space up to 34-3/8 inches (873 mm) maximum working width. This range makes it suitable for small automotive components like wrist pins and universal joints to large industrial parts requiring significant pressing force and workspace.
How does this compare to a 20 ton bottle jack for shop use?
While 20-ton jacks offer more force, this 12-ton press provides better control and precision for most automotive and industrial tasks. The integrated frame eliminates instability issues common with standalone high-capacity jacks used for pressing operations, making it safer and more accurate for delicate work like bearing installation.
Are the arbor plates included sufficient for most pressing jobs?
The included arbor plates handle standard automotive pressing tasks like bearing removal and gear work effectively. For specialized applications requiring specific bearing sizes, custom fabrication work, or unique contact surfaces, you may want to purchase additional adapter plates or pressing accessories to expand the press capabilities.
