About the Aluminium Floor Jack
Trolley Jacks and Floor Jacks are hydraulically powered by the use of hydraulic oil; this is typically included in most jacks when purchasing. These jacks are popular hydraulic tools in workshops, general engineering operations, shipbuilding, power plants, fabrication work and construction sites as well as many other industrial sectors. Floor Jack or Toe Jack
Our standard floor jacks need more height clearance for placement under the load to be lifted, whereas a toe jack has the option of lifting on the top pad or on the lower toe extension; Toe Jacks are sometimes known as machine jacks with a lifting claw. When it is used to lift with the lower toe, a much lower ground clearance is required as the main jack body remains to the side of the load with just the toe fitting underneath. These types of toe jacks are commonly used to lift fork lift trucks for example and other vehicles or types of loads where the space below is somewhat restricted. i.e. sports car, machinery and steel constructions.
Trolley Jacks
Trolley jacks are the perfect piece of hydraulic equipment for car garages etc, they incorporate wheels for ease of movement under objects. We also supply a range of lightweight aluminium jacks, a rotational toe jack and multi-purpose jacks. Hydraulic Equipment brands
Branding is clearly important when it comes to ensuring that the lifting equipment you are ordering is of a high quality. Thankfully if you shop with Lifting Gear Direct you can choose from well known names that will give you confidence when you place your order.

Also remember that looking into the specifications and limitations of any jack is essential when making a choice.

Other equipment options
If a standard aluminium floor jack is not quite what you need, we do have a multitude of similar products to give you as much choice as possible. Hydraulic bottle jacks might be an appropriate option, for example, if you are looking to raise and lower larger objects, such as vehicles, to allow for maintenance and repairs. Hydraulic cylinders are available as well, giving you even more flexibility in terms of use and letting you hold heavy items, as well as use them to push, pull or bend in specific scenarios.
