This Press is made in two sizes or weights, and of a style rendering it strong and durable for punching, slotting, toothing or shearing purposes.

The No. 1 Press weighs 460 pounds and is adapted for gumming saws or punching steel up to 5 gauge (7/32 inch) in thickness.

The No. 2 Press weighs 250 pounds and will gum saws tip to 8 gauge (5/32 inch) in thickness.
