OTC, an SPX Brand, continues to expand its portfolio of Specialty Tools and Equipment with the release of two new premium, heavy-duty (HD) service jacks: the OTC 6-Ton (P/N 5206) and 10-Ton HD (P/N 5210) Service Jacks, specifically engineered to meet the needs of establishments or shops where heavy-duty equipment is used to lift loaded trailers, buses, and other Class 7 and 8 vehicles.
"OTC's Heavy-Duty Service Jack Family offers unmatched performance and durability when compared to the competition. The 5206 and 5210 HD Service Jacks are no exception," said Eric Adamson, SPX Service Solutions Product Manager of Equipment and Heavy-Duty Tools. "Not only are these jacks engineered to withstand the most demanding uses, they include a number of unique features that set them apart from the competition. Most importantly, these jacks incorporate a 'dead-man's' lowering control system that prevents the load from lowering without continuous, active input from the technician. This provides exceptional control of the load during descent and increases the safety of the end user."
In many heavy-duty lifting applications, such as wheel, brake and suspension servicing, a vehicle must be lifted from the surface and adjusted to the desired height above the shop floor to facilitate the task to be performed by the technician. Trouble-free operation of the lifting equipment is a critical component to ensuring that the service is done safely and efficiently. The OTC 5206 and 5210 HD Service Jacks meet the challenge and are designed to provide more functionality without compromising mechanical strength and durability.
Featuring an easy-to-use foot pedal for quick approach of the lifting saddle to the load, these premium service jacks are an ideal choice for tough lifting assignments. A built-in tray provides the technician with a perfect place to store tools, fasteners, or anything else that they need while performing repairs; and its modular construction simplifies assembly and allows for easy maintenance.
Both the 5206 and 5210 are tested to the current ASME/PALD and European Community (CE) lift standards as part of the OTC brand's commitment to meet or exceed the highest accepted standards of performance and design, operator assurance and safety.
