Forney F-1100KN Manual Compression Machine

These Testing Machines have frames manufactured from solid steel into a one-piece, welded unit that exceeds ASTM, ACI, BS, EN and other international standards.

 All machines in the series have Lexan fragment guard doors for enhanced safety.

Frames

Our International Series Machines are backed by our International Sales & Service Team as well as a network of local Forney Certified Service providers.

*Optional machine stand available, TA-0142-01 sold separately

The load frame is manufactured from structural steel angles welded to top and bottom crossheads of solid steel plate. The hydraulic cylinder assembly is mounted to the top crosshead, with force being applied in a downward direction. This design eliminates foreign material build-up around the piston cylinder area.
