Straight Side Hydraulic Presses

Pacific’s Straight Side Press Design is the Choice for the Most Demanding Applications

Pacific Press offers both single and double cylinder straight side presses, also known as gib-guided presses, as straight side designs often include gibbing.

Gibs are press components that guide the reciprocating motion of the ram to maintain superior squareness and parallelism throughout the stroke. Gib-guided designs are the frame style of choice for the most demanding applications.

With thousands of installations in the field, Pacific is the premier provider for robust pressing machinery!
