A 40-ton shop press delivers a formidable 80,000 lb of force—more than enough for diesel truck hubs, agricultural machinery components, and thick-plate fabrication. Redline Stands stocks fully welded H-frame presses built with oversized uprights, hardened arbor plates, winch-assisted bed adjustment, and smooth dual-speed ram control (manual hand pump or air/hydraulic). If a 30-ton unit occasionally leaves you short on capacity, moving up to 40 tons gives you the extra margin to work faster and safer without jumping to an industrial 50 + ton machine.
Most 40 ton hydraulic cylinders reach full capacity between 9,000 psi and 10,500 psi. Monitor your gauge and stay below the manufacturer’s redline. Use lower pressures whenever possible to extend seal life and keep oil temperatures in check.
With a properly rated 12-inch brake die, you can typically form 3⁄8-inch (10 mm) mild steel at 90°. Always confirm the die’s tonnage rating and keep the workpiece within the press throat.
Yes. Air assist speeds the approach stroke and reduces operator strain, cutting overall cycle time by about 40 percent. You can still finish the stroke manually for fine control when pressing delicate parts.
For daily commercial use, change oil every 12 months or 500 working hours. If you notice sluggish ram movement, foamy oil, or a drop in pressing speed, inspect and replace fluid sooner.
Definitely. With proper arbor plates and V-blocks, a 40 ton press can effortlessly remove and install brake drums, hubs, and bearings on most vocational trucks up to Class 6. For Class 7–8 rigs, a 50 ton or higher press provides additional safety headroom.
Plan for a floor space of roughly 48 in × 34 in (1.2 m × 0.85 m) plus at least 30 in of open area in front and above the ram for large workpieces, engine hoists, or lifting slings.
