Any info on This Arbor Press

[ZekeTheSneak]

Just purchased this arbor press for essentially free, Has no name or markings. I found one similar. Appears to be a Yuasa International?
I am curious to learn anything about it. 1/2 ton? 1 ton? Hot garbage? Won the lottery?....

Thank you,

Looks Asian, but it seems to have the ram bored for accessories, so that’s a plus.

Cross section of the ram is often your indicator for capacity. So check any other brand to see?

Yuasa. To the best of my knowledge is a respected maker of Lead Acid batteries.

There's also a Yuasa which is a Japanese industrial company that makes machine tools and such, not sure if related to the battery company or not.

Yuasa is a distributor of a large number of tools and machinery by multiple manufacturers. As far as I know, they don't make anything. That is a separate entity from the Chinese battery company.

Mama always said free is the best price!

Free is always the best price lol. It was more like 5 bucks all things considered. I'm going to disassemble it and see what I can find out about it.

I've found nothing is more expensive than free.

At 5 bucks, I'd have grabbed it.

Actually, GS Yuasa Corporation is a Japanese company.

Yuasa International (the machining related tool company) is a respectable brand even though they themselves had knock offs of certain items. I'd be happy with most anything offered by Yuasa.

Japan, not China.
Also made in USA
