The KYDEX® Taco Press with Xtreme Center Foam is a rugged, space-saving tool engineered for precision molding of one-piece taco-style holsters and sheaths. Designed to function like a manual book press, this unit applies controlled pressure through hinged wings secured with a 12 inch trigger clamp or similar clamping device (not included).
Built for durability, the press features a base made from 0.75 inch plywood, assembled with high-strength grade 5 hardware. The base is glued and screwed together for structural integrity, with all fasteners recessed to help prevent workbench damage. The press top uses twin 6 x 12 inch wings with standard grade neoprene foam attached using hook-and-loop fasteners, making foam swaps fast and hassle-free.
This enhanced model includes a 12 x 12 inch sheet of Xtreme Form center foam—designed for optimal definition and shaping in holster forming. Whether you're making holsters, sheaths, or gear wraps, this bench-top press provides consistent results in a compact one square foot footprint.
