Review on ๐Ÿ”ง 502 Precision PanaPress by PANAVISE by Nick Mahoney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This little tool has pushed all my other abs to the edge.

I was looking for a press that was more accurate than the huge, heavy presses I already have. This press was used in daily production to press PEM nuts and pins into aluminum. I was really surprised at how small it is, but it doesn't seem to have an issue with its power rating throughout our day. The shaft is adjustable on nylon rods, making it smooth and with very little play, critical for a perfectly even fit of precision locating pins. I was able to get a US made product that is smaller and better than the other 3 presses I have. This is the only one I use now. It's so light I don't have to screw it on, I use a C clip to hold it when I need it and then put it on a shelf to save space on my desk.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • So-so
