The Sealey YK20FAH is a 20-tonne floor-mounted air/hydraulic press designed for heavy-duty workshop applications where compressed air power is available. This robust pressing solution combines the convenience of pneumatic operation with substantial hydraulic force, making it ideal for bearing installation, shaft pressing, and metal forming tasks in professional workshops and garages. Built around a durable steel frame construction, this press features a side-mounted air motor that powers the hydraulic pump unit, eliminating the need for manual pumping whilst delivering consistent pressing force. The sliding hydraulic ram assembly provides an impressive 403mm of lateral travel, allowing you to tackle off-centre pressing applications that would be impossible with a fixed-position ram. This flexibility proves invaluable when working with larger components or assemblies that cannot be centred on the table. The press offers excellent working capacity with a ram stroke of 185mm and height adjustment from 58mm minimum to 1018mm maximum between ram and table. A generous 630mm working table width with 211mm depth provides ample space for positioning workpieces, whilst the 105mm table aperture accommodates pressing operations where material needs to pass through. The included ram pressure gauge allows you to monitor applied force accurately, helping prevent damage to delicate components.
