Is a 1-ton arbor press enough for bearings?

It handles small bearings, bushings, pins and staking work. Large bearings or hubs that need several tons are beyond its 2,000 lb rating.

What is the maximum height it can press?

The maximum stock height is 8 in. Anything taller won't fit between the ram and the anvil.

How does the rotating anvil work?

The slotted anvil has 4 positions and rotates, so you can turn a different slot or flat under the ram without unclamping the work.

How big and heavy is it?

It is about 10-1/2 in deep, 12-3/4 in tall and 5 in wide, and weighs 30 lbs. One person can lift it onto a bench.

Is $71.90 a good price?

Only one store lists it new at $71.90 as of November 6, 2026, so there is no competing new price to compare against. Judge it against other 1-ton cast-iron arbor presses.

Does it need power or hydraulics?

No. It is fully manual, driven by a lever, so it needs no electricity or hydraulic fluid.

Our take on the Manual Arbor Press

This is a 1-ton lever-operated arbor press with a cast-iron frame and base, a 4-position rotating slotted anvil, and 8 inches of maximum stock height. It weighs 30 lbs and stands about 12-3/4 in tall, so it fits on a bench and can be moved by one person. The best new price is $71.90 at Amazon as of November 6, 2026, and only one store lists it new, so there is no price spread to compare.
