Wanted 10 ton press

payydg · Mar 4, 2018

After a 10 Ton hydraulic press for a transfer box rebuild project.

I’m driving back from Aberdeen to Suffolk so can collect from almost anywhere in between (which is basically most of the UK).

Help! They’re bloody expensive new

£80 delivered off eBay for a 12 ton, don't know if that's outside your price range (you can get a 6ton for a bit les approx £65 )

I’d seen those. Wasn’t sure of the quality? I’d rather a good quality second hand one rather than one that’ll bust after a few uses. Saying that, at I just being a snob?

I bought a similar one but the 20 ton one for about £120 and have had no problems, and with it just being a bottle jack it's easy to swap it out or replace seals, as for the rest it's just very simple metal work so shouldn't cause issues.
Only thing I would suggest is get the biggest/most powerful you can afford, 20 ton is much more useful than 12.
