Product Description
Product Introduction
A horizontal jack is a hydraulically operated lifting device positioned horizontally. It consists of a hydraulic pump unit, piston rod, base, lifting head, and an operating lever. Operating on the principle of hydraulic transmission, it uses manual pressure applied to the lever to drive hydraulic oil, which in turn pushes the piston rod and lifts the load. This type of jack features a low-profile design, with its base crafted from non-slip steel plates for enhanced stability. Its rated load capacity typically ranges from 2 to 50 tons, while the standard lifting height falls between 10 and 20 centimeters. Some models come equipped with extended lifting heads to accommodate various support points. When in use, the jack must be placed horizontally on a solid, stable surface, ensuring that the lifting head aligns precisely with the load-bearing area of the object. Lifting is achieved gradually through incremental pressurization steps. This tool is primarily used for tasks such as supporting vehicle undercarriages during automotive repairs, lifting mechanical equipment at low heights, and facilitating short-distance horizontal movement of heavy objects. While easy to operate, the jack has limited lifting height and should ideally be used in conjunction with wooden blocks to expand its operational range. As such, it remains a commonly used piece of equipment in repair workshops and garages.
