GUITAR FRET PRESSES & CAULS
Our fret pressing systems offer an alternative solution for installing frets to a hammer or arbor press. The press systems are modular in design and utilize a high mechanical advantage screw system to exert the pressing force. It is important to support the guitar neck correctly and suitable means for this are designed into our products or available as an option.
Advantages over an arbor press:
The press unit will not lift from the rear or move about from reaction against a lever arm.
A screw system provides a much higher force resulting in less manual effort required.
Finite control of downward travel as the caul can be stopped at any height for alignment or checking the fret seating.
Depending on model, the unit can bridge the instrument and be used for thru-neck guitars.
Advantages over hammering:
Consistent fret radius and seating.
Less fret levelling afterwards.
