The SP & SPX Series – The “Standard” for Vacuum Presses

Written by Mark Cowdell 

The SP Series and now the deluxe SPX platform have been the flagship vacuum press for Vac-U-Clamp for over 25 years.  Made in the USA, this versatile vacuum press is well suited for any operation where vacuum is needed for laminating/forming and veneering applications.  Designed with production, durability and quality in mind, the S/P Series is made from welded steel and aluminum at our factory in San Diego County, California.  Most popular sizes are 5×10 and the 5×12 but larger sizes are available if needed.  Includes oil-cooled vacuum pump, silicone or poly membrane, baltic birch platen & lower shelf, timer, bleed system and vacuum gauge.  Custom sizes are available also.

The SP Series vacuum press is a workhorse & center piece for any pro woodwork shop, school/college, serious privateer or anxious novice; Not to be confused with the cheap DIY or overseas extruded aluminum tables that won’t last.
