It's portable, versatile, and designed for in-plant or on-the-job operation!

With a 45-ton punching capacity, this ironworker can punch 1-1/8" hole through 1/2" mild steel and runs on 110-volt power from your standard wall outlet or generator. A 3-in-1 combination tool consisting of a flat bar shear, rod shear, and an angle shear comes standard and is located in our unique tool table area. This versatile workstation allows additional tooling to be easily swapped in and out so you can customize the machine to fit your needs.
