Here is a well engineered 12 and 20 ton ALLOY STEEL Shop Press Plate Bar 7"x7", Pair.
Perfect replacement for unsafe cast press plates (HARBOR FREIGHT AND OTHERS) that can eventually explode under pressure sending fragments on all directions. Check online for pictures of gruesome facial injuries. Our ultra strong ALLOY STEEL Press Plates will never ever fracture.
We use the semi-circular cutout on these 7” X 7” X-Bars in our shop when using a bearing separator splitter to get the maximum diameter capacity out of our 20 Harbor Freight Press.
Plate profile includes 1 large AND 1 small semi-circular cutout for noncritical backup when using a bearing splitter. Also, enjoy the preferred benefits graduated notches to accommodate all shaft (circular) sizes from ½” to 4-1/4”. The Notches will center, cradle and align your workpiece providing 4 point contact with your workpiece. We find this wide 4 point contact will better hold the workpiece vertically, preventing misalignment and shaft or journal scoring. Also more contact area reduces unit loading so there is less chance for damage to expensive bearings and workpieces.
Our 7” X 7” X .75” ALLOY STEEL Press Plate is guaranteed for use on all presses up to 20 ton with an inside, front to back, bed gap of less than 4.5”. You will appreciate the lightweight maneuverability and versatility of this well thought out press tool.
