Hofmann 18K 2-Post Automotive Lift

DLS18016 (Symmetric)

Product Overview

This heavy-duty 2-post automotive lift has a lifting capacity of 18,000 lbs. Its industrial-strength column construction increases structural integrity and adds rugged durability to meet the rigorous demands of automotive service. The 18K 2-Post Lift’s maximum lifting height of 88.63" (with adapters) is supported by a dual cylinder direct-drive lift system and UHMW polyethylene carriage slide bearings (8 per column). Its heavy-duty threaded-rod arm restraints engage when the lift is raised, and a single-point pneumatic safety lock release automatically locks and re-engages when the palm button is released for the safest lifting possible.

Third party tested, ANSI ALCTV-2006 standard, ALI certified by ETL.
