Customer Reviews for VEVOR Arbor Press, 1 Ton Manual Arbor Press, 5.9" Maximum Height, Cast Iron Heavy-duty Manual Desktop Arbor Press, Precision Hand Press for Stamping, Bending, Stretching, Forming

Very nice well made press but I would like to have to tolerences from the fit of the Spine Shaft that had way too much slop. I used teflon seating cord to make it work. Overall I am very happy with it.

Great value! Product arrived very well oiled so requires some cleaning. Works as advertised. Surprisingly well-made for the price

I received the packaged and unit intact, which was a big deal for me. Overall, the unit is a nice one, although I had to disassemble and reassemble it to tune it up a bit. However, I found it to be pretty clean inside, with less sand left over from the sand casting process than I have seen in many similar tools. I also tuned up the pawl/gear contacting points, and drilled small recesses in the (pinion)arbor gear/spindle to accept the two set screws that hold the locking collar on more securely. I'm very happy with the results.

Heavy duty, well packaged and prompt delivery.

A nice little press for the price. I bought it for pressing in small bearings and bushings. It works great for that. The machining is a little crude, but it doesn't really affect the operation. For the money, it's hard to beat.

I added some brass shims because there was a lot of play. After that there was no play and worked like a charm. The fittings I bought for brass eyelets that I use for making kydex holsters fit like great and it seems that the press was designed for this. Couldn't have gotten anything that works better. Even the press from harbor freight isn't as good as this and they are the same price. Be careful as the machined surfaces are a little sharp and required a little fileing and sanding. I would give more than 5 stars if i could.

This review is for VEVOR Arbor Press, 0.5 Ton Manual Arbor Press, 4.6\" Maximum Height, Cast Iron Heavy-duty, $53 on amazon. I have a beefy 3 ton arbor press which I use quite often so I thought this ½ ton baby brother would be a nice addition onto my work table. I didn’t want to dedicate its location by drilling into the work table so I mounted it atop a ¾” thick plank which is C-clamp secured to the table top (two 3” C-Clamps). The set up works great, I can press down on the handle with my full body weight and it stays firm against the table top. I use some Crazy-glue to secure each of the handle caps as they tend to fall off during use. I added 1/2” spring clamp next to each cap to further assure the caps don’t come off. As received the ram was not snug against the front and side adjustment screws and were too tight if screwed in fully (so as to prevent the ram from moving). Found that by adding a split ring washer to the screws the ram adjustment was perfect with the screws fully tightened. Nice baby arbor press with three different style drifts.
