Car Mounted 2T Ratchet Laboursaving Jack Steel Scissor Lift with 390 mm Max Height
This ratchet laboursaving scissor jack provides a practical lifting solution for vehicle owners who need a compact yet capable tool for changing tyres or performing under-vehicle maintenance. The 2.5 tonne (2.5 T) load capacity makes it suitable for many cars and small vans, while the steel construction ensures structural integrity during use. The red and black finish gives it a functional appearance, and the socket base options of 17/19 mm and 21/23 mm allow compatibility with different vehicle jacking points. With a minimum height of approximately 100 mm and a maximum lifting height of approximately 390 mm, it can reach under most standard cars while providing enough lift to raise the wheel clear of the ground.
Features and Construction
This jack is built with a scissor mechanism and a ratchet winding action that reduces the physical effort needed to operate it. The steel frame provides a sturdy platform for lifting loads up to 2.5 tonnes.
Material and Build
The jack is constructed from steel, chosen for its strength and ability to handle the forces involved in lifting a vehicle. The scissor arms are hinged to allow smooth extension and retraction, and the ratchet mechanism locks into place as you lift, providing incremental height adjustment without needing to hold tension on the handle.
Size and Practical Fit
When collapsed, the jack measures approximately 42 cm by 9 cm by 10 cm, making it compact enough to store in a car boot or under a seat. The minimum height of around 100 mm means it fits under most vehicles with standard ground clearance, and the maximum lifting height of about 390 mm gives enough room to change a wheel or perform basic underbody checks.
Uses and Placement
This scissor jack is designed primarily for automotive use, offering a portable lifting tool for roadside emergencies or home garage maintenance. Its 2.5 tonne capacity covers a wide range of passenger vehicles.
Event or Professional Use
For mobile mechanics or roadside assistance, this jack provides a quick and reliable way to lift a vehicle for wheel changes or minor repairs. The ratchet mechanism speeds up the lifting process compared to traditional screw jacks, making it efficient for repeated use during a work shift.
Everyday Home Use
Car owners will find this jack useful for seasonal tyre changes, brake inspections, or checking under-vehicle components. Its compact collapsed size means it can be kept in the car for emergencies without taking up too much space. The dual socket base options ensure it fits a variety of jacking points found on modern cars.
Benefits and Buying Value
This jack offers a practical combination of load capacity, lift height, and portability. The laboursaving ratchet design reduces physical strain, while the steel construction provides reliable support for lifting tasks.
Reuse and Low Maintenance
The scissor mechanism has few moving parts, which reduces the likelihood of mechanical failure. Lubricating the pivot points occasionally will keep the operation smooth. The steel body is durable for repeated lifting cycles without needing replacement parts.
Why Choose This Product
With a 2.5 tonne lift capacity, a maximum height of 390 mm, and a compact collapsed size of 42 cm x 9 cm x 10 cm, this jack covers the needs of most car owners. The ratchet laboursaving design and dual socket base options add practical value without unnecessary complexity.
