Used Piranha Equipment For Sale

Piranha was founded in 1974 to manufacture hydraulic ironworkers, with roots that trace back even further through its acquired Bertsch brand, which began producing metal fabrication equipment in 1879. In 2004, Piranha became part of MegaFab, a privately held company formed by integrating three established fabrication equipment brands — Piranha, Whitney, and Bertsch — under one roof at a 200,000-square-foot production facility in Rockford, Illinois. That heritage of American manufacturing and continuous product development has shaped Piranha into one of the most recognized names in structural and sheet metal fabrication equipment.

Piranha's press brake lineup is the centerpiece of its product offering and spans an exceptionally wide range of capacities. The T Series covers tonnages from 25 to 280 tons, making it well suited for job shops and mid-volume production environments, while the P Series Precision Press Brake scales up to 3,000 tons for heavy plate and structural applications. Earlier generations, including the long-running Pro2 synchronous twin-cylinder hydraulic press brake and the Gen II series, remain widely used in the field. Across all lines, Piranha press brakes feature Delem CNC controls, hydraulic bed crowning systems, and synchronized ram positioning designed to hold tight tolerances bend after bend.

Piranha press brakes serve a broad cross-section of industries that depend on precise, repeatable metal forming. Structural steel fabricators, general manufacturing shops, construction equipment manufacturers, and automotive suppliers all rely on Piranha equipment to process materials ranging from mild steel and stainless to aluminum alloys and chrome molybdenum. The machines are equally at home in small job shops running varied work and in production environments demanding high throughput.

Buyers seeking used Piranha press brakes are drawn first to the brand's reputation for rugged, heavy construction that keeps machines productive for decades. The Pro2 and Gen II series in particular have proven their longevity, and Piranha's continued support through published service manuals, replacement parts, and an active dealer network makes maintaining older machines straightforward. That combination of durability, parts availability, and strong resale value means a used Piranha press brake typically delivers a lower total cost of ownership than comparable machines from less established brands.
