Rated above the corner weight being lifted — roughly a third of the vehicle's gross weight covers a corner with margin, and heavier vehicles, vans and EVs (whose batteries add real mass) push the requirement up. Capacity is listed per jack; rounding up costs little and removes the question.

At the vehicle's designated jacking points — the reinforced locations the handbook shows, which on most modern cars means the pinch-weld seams that grooved saddles are shaped for. Lifting anywhere else bends sills and floors and can slip the jack. The saddle form is listed per jack.

No — not on a scissor jack, not on any jack. Jacks lift; axle stands hold. A scissor jack's tall thin geometry makes it the least stable lifter in the section, fine for a wheel change with the vehicle chocked, and never a support for anyone underneath. Stands and chocks are listed in the same section.

Trolley for repeated workshop lifting — faster, more stable, higher capacity. The scissor jack's case is portability: it folds flat in a boot or van locker and handles the roadside wheel change and the occasional positional lift. Most trade users own both and use each where it belongs.

Scissor Jacks

FilterFilters
View as Grid List

Scissor jacks are the compact end of vehicle lifting: the screw-driven mechanical jacks that fold flat enough to live in a boot or van locker and lift a corner of a car when the trolley jack is back at the workshop. PartsForMachines supplies scissor jacks as part of the vehicle lifting range, as an Authorised Distributor and Seller for Sealey and Draper, alongside the trolley jacks, bottle jacks, axle stands and chocks that share the section.

The honest specification matters more here than anywhere in lifting: rated capacity against the vehicle's actual corner weight, minimum and maximum saddle height against the vehicle's jacking point and the lift the job needs, and the saddle form, with grooved saddles matching the pinch-weld jacking points modern cars present. Each product page lists capacity, height range, closed height and weight, with Compare lining up jacks side by side and Ask Simon answering capacity and fitment questions. Within the lifting section, the scissor jack's role is positional and occasional, wheel changes and roadside lifts, while repeated workshop lifting belongs to trolley and bottle jacks, listed alongside.

The safety disciplines are absolute and short: firm level ground, the vehicle's designated jacking point, wheels chocked, and never any part of anyone under a vehicle held only by a jack, axle stands carry that duty, scissor jacks least of all. A jack lifts; stands hold.

Trolley jacks, axle stands and wheel chocks complete the lifting set in the same section. For trade or fleet quantities, contact the team via WhatsApp 07754288583.
