Why This 6 Tonne Base Plate Hoist Is More Value for Money Than Others on the Market-

  • Single Point Release Electric Locks
  • 4x 3 Stage Lifting Arms at 1800mm Long
  • Extra Wide Between Columns
  • Fee Set of 4WD Pad Height Extenders
  • Super Heavy-Duty Hoist Ways in Excess Of 1000Kg

This heavy-duty two-post base plate vehicle hoist provides an efficient solution for lifting passenger cars, four-wheel drives, and commercial vehicles in workshops with limited vertical clearance. Engineered with a 6000kg structural capacity, it allows mechanical workshops and trade professionals to carry out under-chassis servicing, suspension repairs, and brake maintenance safely. The low-profile floor plate design protects synchronisation cables and hydraulic lines while maximising space in low-ceiling work bays.

  • High Lifting Capacity — The robust 6000kg trade rating ensures safe mechanical handling of everything from compact cars to heavily loaded trade utilities and service vans.
  • Dual Hydraulic Rams — Dual-cylinder engineering optimised with high-strength equalisation chains delivers synchronous lifting cycles and uniform load distribution.
  • Electric Lock Release — Simple push button lock release
  • Extruded 8mm Columns — Heavy-gauge structural steel pillars assure zero flex under full capacity load to guarantee technician safety during heavy component installation.
  • 6000kg Industrial Capacity — Extra-thick structural steel columns provide the maximum structural engineering rating required to handle fully laden medium-duty work trucks and heavy service vehicles.
  • Electronic Lock Release — Advanced push-button control panel disengages all mechanical safety locks electronically from a single station to eliminate manual cables and speed up lowering cycles.
  • 3-Stage Extension Arms — Heavy-duty telescoping symmetric lifting arms adjust across three distinct extension stages to reach optimal factory chassis pick-up points on short or long-wheelbase profiles.

Overview

This 6-tonne heavy vehicle lifting system uses extra-thick steel columns and massively reinforced internal carriage configurations to guarantee absolute stability. It is engineered for high-volume commercial fleet operators, local utility yards, and industrial transport workshops managing large delivery vehicles, light trucks, and heavy four-wheel drives.

Key Features

  • Reinforced Column Base Architecture — Over-engineered column base plates distribute massive vertical lifting forces over an expanded floor surface area to reduce localised structural stress on the workshop floor foundation.
  • Dual High-Pressure Hydraulic Rams — Dual commercial-grade hydraulic cylinders operating alongside high-strength leaf chains ensure smooth, synchronised vertical travel and precise balanced load control.
  • Self-Lubricating Wear Pads — Industrial high-density macromolecular polyethylene slide blocks protect internal carriage movement and minimise mechanical friction along the steel columns for a prolonged service life.
  • Automatic Arm Restraints — Heavy-duty gear ring locks engage automatically upon ascent to fix the position of the heavy three-stage arms and eliminate any pivoting hazards while under load.

Before You Order

Installation requires a level, fully cured reinforced concrete slab with a minimum thickness of 115 mm and a compressive strength rating of 32Mpa. The electro-hydraulic power pack operates via a standard 240 V single-phase electrical supply connected to a dedicated 15 A circuit breaker (should not operate off of a 10amp extension lead). Ensure your designated high-roof workshop bay provides adequate vertical clearance for the overall structure, keeping a safe margin from overhead lighting, support trusses, and automated roller doors.

What's Included

  • Two extra-thick 6000 kg capacity structural steel columns
  • Four heavy three-stage telescoping symmetric lifting arms with automatic gear locks
  • Two industrial-grade hydraulic cylinders with high-strength leaf chains
  • 240 V single-phase hydraulic power unit with integrated fluid reservoir and control box
  • Four screw-adjustable pick-up pads and four high-clearance extension sleeves
  • Industrial concrete floor anchoring bolts and heavy hardware installation pack

Please note that AW46 grade hydraulic oil is sold separately.

To maximise the productivity of your heavy commercial service bay, consider pairing this 6-tonne lifting system with our heavy-duty truck tyre changers, high-capacity wheel balancers, or mobile commercial transmission jacks.
