DESCRIPTION
Built for serious work and everyday reliability, the Black Widow 20-Ton Air-Operated Shop Press delivers professional-grade force in a compact, shop-friendly footprint. Designed for home mechanics, restoration experts, and small repair shops, this press makes bending, straightening, pressing bearings, and freeing seized components faster, safer, and more precise.
Featuring air-over-hydraulic operation, the press connects to a 110–120 PSI air compressor, giving you smooth, controlled power without physical strain. Prefer hands-on control? The included manual hydraulic hand pump offers flexibility for delicate or fine-tuned tasks. A rugged powder-coated steel frame ensures long-term durability, while the integrated pressure gauge provides confidence with every press.
With 20 tons of pressing force, a nine-position adjustable work table, and a sliding ram with 2.75"–10" extension, this shop press adapts to a wide range of automotive, motorcycle, agricultural, and fabrication projects. Compact yet powerful, it’s a must-have tool that turns demanding jobs into smooth, controlled operations right in your own workspace.
