Up to 25 Ton Laboratory Press

The manual laboratory press can be optimally used as an XRF press, KBr press, and FTIR press. Although all manual presses come in 15- and 25-ton load configurations, they can also be configured as 0-5, 0-2, and 0-1 tons.

The manual hydraulic press is designed for a broad range of laboratory press applications. It is suitable for glove-box and bench-top laboratory applications because of its compact and small footprint design. Customers can contact Specac to try or purchase this manual hydraulic press.

Clear Pressure Gauge

The dual scale gauge can be read easily and is calibrated in metric tons as well as UK imperial tons. It includes an adjustable pressure control valve that enables reproducible load for repetitive applications. Specac offers an array of conversion gauges (such as 0-1, 0-2, and 0-5 tons) for low-pressure applications.

Reliable Press for KBr and XRF Pellets

As a standard, the hand-pumped laboratory press comes with a protective safety shield and rugged steel construction. More specifically, it can be used as a thin-film press, XRF pellet press, and FTIR pellet press when used in tandem with Specac’s Heated Platens, Evacuable Pellet Die assemblies, and related Thin-Film making kits. The hand-pumped laboratory press is suitable for preparing KBr pellets.
