Choose air presses and arbors for the job at hand
This category includes two distinct product types: air-powered presses for repeated press operations and arbors or spindles for mounting wheels on compatible motor or threaded shafts. Begin by identifying whether the application needs pressing force or a wheel-mounting connection, then compare the stated shaft, thread, wheel-width, capacity, and stroke details.

Use pneumatic presses for repeated crimping, heat sealing, bending, forming, pressing, swaging, riveting, and burnishing. Use shaft arbors for abrasive-wheel mounting, and use the buffing spindle for soft-centered buffing wheels.
Start with the connection
For arbors, match the shaft type and diameter first: smooth 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, or 3/4 inch shafts, or a 5/8-11 threaded shaft. Then select the required right-hand or left-hand thread direction.
Compare work setup requirements
Type D arbors have a wider shoulder that provides clearance and room to position workpieces around the wheel for buffing and polishing setups. Standard nut-lock arbors provide a wheel-mounting point on compatible smooth shafts.
Check stated capacities and details
Available press configurations include a 3/4-ton column press with a 4-inch bore and 2-inch stroke, plus a 1-3/4 ton arbor press with a 6-inch stroke. Some arbors state wheel-width capacity up to 1-1/4 or 2 inches.

Compare the product types
Use this overview to separate press equipment from wheel-mounting attachments and select according to the stated application details.
| Product type | Primary fit or configuration | Key selection factors |
|---|---|---|
| Pneumatic column press | 3/4-ton capacity; 4-inch bore; 2-inch stroke | For shop-air-powered repetitive pressing and forming operations |
| Pneumatic arbor press | 1-3/4 ton capacity; 6-inch cylinder stroke | For air-powered crimping, forming, riveting, and related tasks |
| Motor shaft arbor or buffing spindle | Smooth 1/4 to 3/4 inch shafts, or 5/8-11 threaded shafts | Match shaft type, diameter, thread direction, wheel width, and clearance needs |
Plan the right fit before choosing
Compare capacity, stroke, and press format
Pneumatic presses connect to an existing shop air supply and do not require electrical wiring, pumps, or motors. Choose the press configuration that aligns with the stated force and travel needed for the operation.
- 3/4-ton column press with a 4-inch bore and 2-inch stroke
- 1-3/4 ton pneumatic arbor press with a 6-inch stroke
- Both formats are intended for repeated production and shop pressing operations
Match shaft fit, threading, and wheel setup
Motor shaft arbors are designed around specific smooth shaft diameters, while the screw-lock arbor fits compatible 5/8-11 threaded shafts. Thread direction is an essential comparison point, with both right-hand and left-hand options represented.
- Smooth-shaft fits include 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, and 3/4 inch sizes
- Right-hand and left-hand threaded arbor configurations are available
- Socket set screws help secure compatible arbors to smooth shafts
- The screw-lock arbor can use a hex adapter with longer screws for thicker abrasive wheels
Review wheel width and clearance needs
Where wheel width is stated, select an arbor that accommodates the intended wheel. For buffing and polishing work where workpiece positioning is important, Type D arbors provide a wider shoulder for added clearance.
- One left-hand 1/2-inch shaft arbor accommodates abrasive wheel widths up to 1-1/4 inches
- Selected 3/8-, 5/8-, and 3/4-inch shaft arbors accommodate wheels up to 2 inches wide
- The 1/4-inch left-hand buffing spindle is a quick-change option for soft-centered buffing wheels and changes without washers or nuts
Common questions before buying
What are pneumatic presses used for?
The listed pneumatic presses are designed for crimping, heat sealing, bending, forming, pressing, swaging, riveting, and burnishing operations.
What shaft sizes are represented by the arbors?
The summaries include arbors or a spindle for compatible 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, and 3/4 inch smooth shafts, plus an arbor for 5/8-11 threaded shafts.
Why does thread direction matter on an arbor?
The available arbors include right-hand and left-hand threaded designs, so the arbor should match the required wheel-mounting application.
Which options provide added workpiece clearance?
The Type D arbors have a wider shoulder that provides clearance and room to position workpieces around the wheel for buffing and polishing setups.
