Product overview

The BendPak 9APF is a floorplate two-post hoist aimed at workshops where ceiling height or overhead obstructions make a conventional clearfloor top beam impractical. Its open-top layout leaves the area above the vehicle unobstructed, while the low floorplate protects the hydraulic and equalisation routing between the columns. Triple-telescoping AP-series arms and Bi-Metric positioning support a broad vehicle mix, including low passenger vehicles, SUVs, utes and light trucks, subject to rated capacity, arm reach and approved lifting points.

Key features

  • 4,082 kg rated lifting capacity
  • Open-top design with no overhead beam across the vehicle
  • Low 38 mm floorplate protecting lines and cables
  • Triple-telescoping AP-series lifting arms
  • Symmetric or asymmetric Bi-Metric vehicle positioning
  • Automatic swing-arm restraints
  • Dual hydraulic cylinders
  • Multiple mechanical safety-lock positions with single-point release
  • Adjustable narrow/wide column installation
  • Minimum pad height of 114 mm
