We will test the strength of huge nuts with a hydraulic press, cold and hot up to 800 degrees

    Unfortunately I have missed the disclaimer and have done exactly this at home. Just by accident I have applied 600 tons of pressure to my metal. What shall I do now?

    "Don't repeat this at home" Me: Yeah I should keep that hydraulic press back in my pocket.
  • @igortcgg
    Good you warned me to not repeat at home. I just wanted to pick my 500 ton hydraulic press out of the wardrobe to try it out. You saved my life ;)

    These videos are also educational. This is why heat resistant paint is so important for steel constructions.
  • Impressive how the sledgehammer able to withstand that much of pressure!

    1:51 i like how the other iron bar seems so happy seing his friend sliced 2. Like "Yaayyy finally, plis do it again"
  • @Sammechu
    These videos are so satisfying to watch. I love guessing how things will break
  • “I don’t get a real benefit” from watching this, besides entertainment and learning a thing or 2! But love these videos and almost stop doing anything to watch them 😂! Thankful for all the time, effort and money invested to bring these videos to us! 👍🏼
  • You're the first yt channel creator to break a sledgehammer I've seen so far. Congratulations. The released every from that was amazing. Well done. Subbed you too.

    So if anyone ever had any doubt about heat affecting steel, I guess now you know.
  • the thing about steels is once you heat it to above 400c, you've ruined any hardness or tempering properties it had beforehand, even if you allow it to cool back down to ambient room temperature. it will be roughly as soft and malleable as cold mild steel unless you can reharden and re temper it, which for something that big and thick, is really hard to do.
  • @TomCee53
    Interesting, but more detail would be useful, such as the alloy of the metal, the hardness or temper. This could also be stated as the grade, for bolts & nuts.
  • @quantomic1106
    "Don't try this at home" Yeah sure because I just happen to have an industrial press in my living room
  • @fabianmtk4471
    I always get a strange feeling when it looks like it's about to break
  • @neumoi3324
    The guy got a hydraulic press as a birthday gift. Since then he has been pressing anything he can pay his hands on.
  • Steel retains less then 30% strength at those temps so this doesnt surprise me in the least.
