## Overview

The Palmgren 0.5 ton Arbor Press is a compact, heavy-duty tool designed for riveting, punching, bending, and light pressing tasks. Built from fine grain FC25 cast iron with a trapezoidal-thread lead screw, it offers exceptional strength and precision with less than 0.002" jaw deflection under 2000 lbs pressure. Its reversible ram with magnetic insert allows quick tool changes, while the lockable depth stop and fine adjustment screw provide precise control. Ideal for hobbyists and small prototype shops, it mounts easily to benches and includes a versatile 3-bit set for immediate use.

## Description

Product Description The Palmgren ½ ton Arbor Press Delivers the heavy force needed for riveting, squeezing, punching, bending, and other pressing applications. Removable machined steel anvil provides accurate work support in four slot positions. Depth stop securely clamps to the ram and withstands full pressure. A lockable fine adjustment adjusting screw accurately limits the depth of the ram stroke. The rugged steel ram is driven by a machined piston and dimensions are ¾ x ¾ inches. Punches or tools may be added to the end of the ram with the aid of a magnetic insert. The ram is reversible with one end solid and the other end with a hole and magnet to hold bits and tools. Sturdy cast-iron construction allows for the rugged strength needed for tougher jobs. The base is pre-drilled for mounting on either a bench or pedestal, and it is also machined to hold the included three bit set. The bit set includes one pointed bit, one round bit, and one square end bit along with a removable steel anvil. The removable anvil has a diameter of 3 ½ inches. From the Manufacturer 4' Palmgren cradle style angle vise is the quickest way to set your work between 0? and 90?.

Review: No Magic - It's a basic arbor press. This baby one at 0.5 ton is not going to move the world, It's a simple rack and pinion + lever advantage tool (normally) used for joining or moving press fit metal components. (arbors, bearings on shafts, etc.) Clever users can find many other applications where controlled downward force is needed rather than brute hammering. For full force application it needs to be bolted to a sturdy bench or stand. A hole in bench beneath anvil may be requited for some applications needing more clearance. Works smart. Don't purchase a tack hammer to drive railroad spikes... This tool is 100% satisfactory in construction and material and for use within its capacity. The rack is reversible for solid or hole end. There is a depth stop clamp for the rack included which is not shown. The holding magnet in the hole end is never intended to receive press force. Supplied tools rest against square rack end, not against the magnet. Consider your application when designing tool holders. Good price and value in its class. I recommend for all hobbyist and/or miniature to small prototype machine shops. Any other light pressing operations that can be imagined.
Review: Good product ... good value - Well made, flexible to use. If you need a small press .. this is definitely the one you want. Well made, functional and dang what a value. Price them out there ... but you'll be back. Palmgren makes a wonderfully made product. No complaints at all. If the larger presses they offer are as well made as this one ... I might just have to pick one up later. Comparing what I got from Palmgren to the ones available locally ... no comparison. This is much better and comes with the three tips. Reversing the ram to use the tips couldn't be easier. Do I sound please? You bet I am. Great press and I spent at least $30 less than I would have for one that's not even on par with this one!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Do yourself a favor and just order it!
*by B***R on February 21, 2025*

I bought this to use to press in guitar frets and I must say it’s awesome! I tried another cheaper one and it was junk compared to this one. This one didn’t come all dirty and greasy and packed very well. Also much better quality than the other one I ordered and sent back. Also better than the Harbor Freight brand one. I haven’t used it for anything else so not sure how it works for pressing in bearings and stuff like that. It did come with a stop to keep it from falling down too far and a 3/8” hole to add the fret press caul and other accessories. Only thing I wish it had a treaded hole with an Allen nut to lock the fret caul in place but that’s easy enough to do yourself with a drill bit and threader tool. I actually got some 3/8” circle magnets and put up in the whole to hold the fret caul and works out perfectly! If you don’t want to spend the money on the Stew Mac press then this one is definitely worth it! Don’t try to save money and order a cheaper one because you’ll be disappointed and wish you just ordered this one in the first place!
