Product information "Toggle press"
The toggle press is a hand press for eyelets, snap fasteners, hollow rivets, jeans buttons, fabric-covered buttons and hole punching and die cutting with the matching tool. It suits hobby, workshop and professional use when you want to process different materials and fasteners with a fixed press.
The long lever and toggle mechanism generate high pressing forces with comparatively little effort. The lever is pulled toward the user, so the press can be operated comfortably while seated and needs no free space above the machine.
The toggle press is compatible with all Getmore Crafts tools. Tools are not included, so choose the matching setting, hole punch or die tool separately for each application and size.
