FAQs

Both figures appear on this leaf, so it is the first thing to read. A pair rated at 3 tonne and a single stand rated at 3 tonne are very different purchases, and the listing states which it gives.

Minimum height has to be low enough to slide under once the jack has lifted, and maximum height has to reach the support point with the wheels clear. Both figures are stated per stand.

A pin lock drops a pin through the column and cannot slip, but adjusts in fixed steps. A ratchet adjusts more finely. Both hold mechanically rather than relying on hydraulics.

One that raises itself to meet the load rather than being set to height first, which is quicker where the vehicle is already lifted. Draper hold them in pairs at 3, 5 and 10 tonne.

From 1 tonne on the smaller pin lock stands through 2, 3, 6 and 12 tonne up to 20 tonne for heavy vehicles, so the same leaf covers a car and a truck.

No. Stands should be used in matched pairs or fours of the same capacity and height range, so the vehicle is supported evenly rather than on stands set differently.

Capacity is quoted per stand on some lines and per pair on others, and both appear on this leaf. That is the first thing to read, because a pair rated at 3 tonne and a stand rated at 3 tonne are very different purchases. The listing states which figure it is giving. Getting that wrong halves or doubles the support under the vehicle, which is not a margin worth guessing at.

Height range decides whether the stand meets the vehicle where it needs to. Minimum height has to be low enough to slide under once the jack has lifted, and maximum height has to reach the support point with the wheels clear. Both figures are stated per stand.

Locking method is where the stands differ most in use. A pin lock drops a pin through the column, which cannot slip but is set in fixed steps. A ratchet adjusts in finer increments. A pneumatic rise stand raises itself to the load rather than being set first, which is quicker with a vehicle already up. Chicago Pneumatic run jack stands at 2, 3, 6, 12 and 20 tonne with MO-TEC pin lock stands below them.

Capacity runs 1 tonne on the smaller MO-TEC stands through 2, 3, 6 and 12 tonne to 20 tonne for heavy vehicles. Stands are always used in matched pairs or fours, never mixed. Questions go over WhatsApp on 07754288583 with the vehicle weight and the support points.
