Draper Floor Press, 20 Tonne

The Draper 20 Tonne Hydraulic Floor Press (HFP/20D) is a robust, professional-grade workshop press designed for serious pressing, bending, straightening, and forming jobs. With a powerful 20-tonne hydraulic ram, a sliding ram assembly for precise lateral positioning, and nine adjustable table heights, this floor press delivers the controlled force, flexibility, and accuracy demanded by busy garages, engineering workshops, and industrial facilities.

Fully tested and certified for safe, reliable operation, the HFP/20D arrives ready to take on the toughest pressing tasks — from bearing and bush installation to component straightening and metal forming.

Built for Heavy-Duty Workshop Use

The HFP/20D is engineered around a heavy-gauge steel frame for the rigidity and long-term durability required to handle 20 tonnes of pressing force, day in and day out. The floor-standing design provides a stable working platform with an overall height of 1,785mm and a substantial 113.5kg construction that anchors the press firmly during operation.

The sliding hydraulic ram can be positioned laterally across the working width, allowing the operator to align force exactly where it's needed without repositioning the workpiece — a major time-saver on awkward or asymmetric jobs.

Key Features and Benefits

The HFP/20D is packed with features that combine workshop performance with operator safety:

• 20-tonne hydraulic capacity for heavy pressing, removal, and forming work
• Sliding ram design for precise lateral alignment over the workpiece
• Nine adjustable table heights — 256, 366, 486, 606, 726, 846, 966, 1086 and 1106mm — to accommodate components of virtually any size
• Generous 28–998mm ram-to-table clearance for maximum versatility
• Glycerine liquid-filled pressure gauge delivers smoother needle movement, greater accuracy, and significantly longer service life than dry gauges
• Safety overload valve protects the press and operator from accidental over-pressurisation
• Anti-kink coil at each end of the flexible hydraulic hose for added protection against damage and premature wear
• Two flat V-shaped pressing blocks included for supporting round and shaft components
• Fully tested and certified for confidence in safe, compliant operation
• Heavy-duty steel frame construction built for years of demanding workshop use

Ideal Applications

With 20 tonnes of controlled hydraulic force on tap, the HFP/20D is suited to a vast range of workshop tasks, including:

• Pressing bearings, bushes, and bearings races in and out of housings
• Installing and removing wheel bearings and hub assemblies
• Pressing universal joints, ball joints, and silent bushes
• Straightening bent shafts, axles, and metal stock
• Removing pulleys, gears, and pressed-on components
• Forming, bending, and shaping metal parts
• Pressing pins, pivots, and dowels
• General fabrication and engineering tasks

A core piece of equipment for automotive workshops, HGV and plant repair facilities, agricultural engineers, fabricators, machine shops, and any business carrying out regular heavy pressing work.

Why Choose the Draper HFP/20D?

A workshop press is one of those tools that quickly becomes indispensable — and choosing the right one means thinking about capacity, accuracy, safety, and longevity. The Draper HFP/20D delivers on all four counts. The 20-tonne rating handles the heaviest routine pressing jobs found in automotive and engineering workshops, while the sliding ram and nine table heights give the flexibility needed to tackle a huge variety of component sizes without compromise.

The glycerine-filled gauge offers far better readability and durability than budget alternatives, the anti-kink hose protection helps the press last for years of daily use, and the overload safety valve provides essential operator protection during demanding jobs.

Backed by Draper Tools — one of the UK's most respected names in workshop equipment — the HFP/20D combines trusted engineering with practical, real-world features designed by people who understand what mechanics, engineers, and fabricators actually need.

Whether you're equipping a busy independent garage, a commercial vehicle workshop, a fabrication unit, or an industrial maintenance facility, the Draper 20 Tonne Hydraulic Floor Press is built to deliver reliable, powerful, and safe performance for years to come.
