Buffalo Arbor Press

Here's the typical arbor press you'll find in just about every Machine Shop in the country.

My arbor press is a single leverage arbor press rated at 3 ton, that features a shimmed ram cap, adjustable handle, and smooth action gears. It also has a base opening and slotted table plate.

I built the metal stand with its sloping front legs especially for my arbor press, to allow the base opening of the arbor press to be utilized to its fullest capabilities.
Beside pressing bushings, bearings, staking, I use my arbor press for broaching internal key-ways in gears and pulleys that have been machined in my lathe and milling machine.
