STEEL Vs. ALLOY WHEELS Which One Is Stronger? Hydraulic Press Test!

Do not try this at home!! or at any where else!!

This is the best channel for hydraulic press videos. No annoying background music, a professional workshop, professional slow motion cameras, professional compressor, the amount of weight compressed shown, and creativity.

HPC: “This is really dangerous so don’t try this at home”
Me: (Removing the wheel from my hydraulic press...)

[jimjimerson]

Ok I won’t try this at home with my industrial hydraulic press.

[marcdeboer]

Those wheels aren't having a very Goodyear.

Pfuh, thank you for warning me, I was about to start up my hidraulic press and crush some spare rims I had laying around, thanks for the heads up

I will NOT be bringing my tires to this shop for mounting.

What a lovely demonstration of the difference between brittle and ductile failure :)

I just browsed through some of the comments. It's amazing how many people actually seem to think that this is supposed to be a serious scientific test or to offer actual consumer advice. I also learned that there are many people who are not in possession of a hydraulic press... or a sense of humour.

I only come here to hear his English pronunciation... Coz he always make me happy... 😂

"Don't try this at home!"

Sure, I forgot I have a 150 tons press somewhere under my bed.

[YusufPetersenCPT]

you should have done fake alloy wheels vs real OEM alloy wheels. The new lights are great!

[alexroubicek]

The good thing about steel rims when touring is you can bash them back into place and relative alignment as opposed to alloy

[jackfrost]

Next time I see a hydraulic press in the middle of the road, I'm swerving around it!

"This is really dangerous, don't ever try anything like this at home..."
" *AND HERE WE GO!* "

[dabj]

Can you please mount the "offset tire" back on the car and see if it still works?

[schumbo]

New workshop lights looks awesome gratz:)

[tomwindmeier]

I don't know what makes me laugh more, the stuff getting crushed or you guys cracking up when you crush stuff!

[kleetus]

This is why the police run steel wheels, they may deform, but they do not catastrophically fail losing control of the vehicle...

[lifesabitch]

structural welder here!!! Aluminum strength varies A LOT based on the adding alloys in it. Some have 20, 000psi strength, others have 130, 000 psi. (at least that's the strongest I tested)
The same goes with steel. It can be soft and maluable, or very hard and brittle

[adambg]

We all know before watching the video that steel will be stronger but I still love how they already know but test it anyway.

Well done
