Stimpson is a fastener manufacturer, with one of the largest varieties of standard and specialty eyelets, and some of the most advanced, high-speed automated equipment available.

Most popular for grommets and washers, the 405 bench press’s tools can be easily changed to set different component sizes, including for several types of fasteners. While its operation is manual, the quality of the work it produces equals that of large semi-automatic and automatic setting machinery.

Its versatility and simple operation make the machine useful in a variety of industries. It’s also portable and stable when mounted on the Stimpson baseplate.

The specifications for the 405 bench press include: 

  • Frame material: Heavy-duty aluminum
  • Height: 12 inches
  • Weight: 10 lbs
  • Throat depth: 2-3/4 inches
