VEVOR 2.5-Ton Low-Profile Floor Jack

A steel hydraulic floor jack for home garage maintenance, tire changes, and other automotive projects. Its low starting height is designed to help it fit beneath compatible vehicles, while the long handle provides leverage for lifting.

Rated lifting capacity: 5,500 pounds
Minimum height: 3.35 inches (85 mm)
Maximum height: 14.96 inches (380 mm)
Heavy-duty steel construction
31.5-inch handle with a two-piece design
360-degree rotatable, detachable saddle
Rubber saddle and foam handle bumper

Safety first: A floor jack is for lifting, not for supporting a vehicle while you work underneath it. Use appropriately rated jack stands on firm, level ground, follow the vehicle and jack instructions, and never exceed the rated capacity. Check vehicle clearance and lifting points before use.
