Hydraulic Press with Gauge NORTON GR300P — 30 t Capacity

The NORTON GR300P hydraulic press with built-in pressure gauge is a mechanical workshop press rated for 30-ton capacity. Designed for pressing, bending and straightening metal parts, this press combines a robust frame with a hydraulic cylinder and an integrated manometer to provide controlled, visible pressure during operations. Its construction aims to deliver steady force for automotive repair, metalworking and general workshop tasks where accurate pressure application is required.

Advantages

The mechanical frame and hydraulic system deliver reliable force transmission and long-term durability under repetitive use. The integrated pressure gauge allows operators to monitor applied force in real time, improving process control and reducing the risk of overloading or inconsistent results. The compact vertical design requires limited floor space while offering a large working area for various part sizes. Components are arranged for straightforward maintenance and replacement, supporting workshop uptime.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Pressing bearings and bushings during assembly and disassembly
• Bending and straightening metal panels, rods and shafts
• Hydraulic forming and light pressing operations in service garages
• General workshop pressing tasks requiring visible pressure feedback

Key specifications

• Nominal pressing capacity: 30 tonnes
• Integrated pressure gauge for real-time pressure readout
• Hydraulic cylinder with mechanical frame
• Vertical bench press configuration with adjustable working height
• Suitable working area for small to medium-sized metal parts

How to use

Position the workpiece on the press bed and align it under the ram. Use the adjustable supports or blocks to set the correct working height and ensure stable support of the part. Operate the hydraulic pump to apply pressure while observing the built-in gauge to reach the required force. Release pressure gradually after completing the operation and remove the part. Follow routine checks of hydraulic fluid level and inspect seals and connections before use to ensure safe operation.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate supports and tooling to distribute load evenly and prevent damage to the workpiece or press. Do not exceed the rated capacity of 30 tonnes; when exact force control is required, rely on the integrated pressure gauge and perform test presses on scrap material. Wear suitable personal protective equipment and follow local workshop safety practices.
