Introduction
Thor crushes Iron Man's gauntlet with ease.

Calculation
Iron Man's armor is made from a gold-titanium alloy, which is four times stronger than titanium.

Commercially pure grades of titanium have ultimate tensile strength of 434 MPa.

Titanium Gold UTS = 4*434 = 1736 MPa (MPa=N/mm^2)

The average BSA of an adult male is 1.9 m^2, and the hand is approximately 0.83% of the body's surface area.

Thor's hand surface area = 1.9*0.0083 = 0.01577 m^2

Force = 1736*10^6*0.01577 = 27376720 Newtons, 3077.27 Tons of Force

Result
Since he crushed the gauntlet with one hand, it should be fine to multiply the result by two.

Thor's Lifting Strength = 3077.27*2 = 6154.54 Tons of Force (Class M)
