Question by: Floyd G on Nov 25, 2025, 5:48 PM
We run this pump on a small press setup and need it going pretty much all day long. Cast iron build on something like this hold up alright under that kind of continuous duty?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 27, 2025, 6:45 AM
Cast iron is genuinely one of the better choices for sustained industrial work. It handles heat cycling and mechanical stress better than lighter alloys, which matters when a press circuit is running shift after shift. The 2520VQ series was built with exactly that kind of demanding duty in mind, so the construction isn't just a material choice, it's matched to the application.

Reckon this pump would hold up okay in a small hydraulic press application?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jul 3, 2025, 6:53 AM
For small press units, this Vickers vane pump is a solid choice. It's built to handle the high-pressure demands you'd see in that kind of setup.
