How to choose a jack?
Basically, the jack was supposed to come back when the first heavier vehicle was being developed. Scientific sources do not mention this and state that jacks began to be more widely used as early as the 16th century. Why did we mention that when the first heavier vehicle was developed, it had to be lifted, turned, and so on thousands of times. And then, when there was no such invention as a jack, people did it with their physical strength.
Without jacks, many mechanics cannot imagine their normal working day. We can be glad that technologically they have greatly improved, so without special physical forces it is possible to lift the desired vehicle with the help of a jack. Jacks are widely used not only by mechanics but also for household use. Customers face the problem of wanting to buy a jack but don’t know what type of jack is best for them. We will briefly summarize the principles of operation and where this type is most commonly used.
- The most important technical parameter is the lifting capacity, evaluate the weight of the vehicle.

- Height: Carefully evaluate the height you need to lift, consider the height of the folded jack in the description to fit under the vehicle.
- Handle length: estimate the length of the handle you need for comfortable work.
- Types: stepped, conventional and low profile jacks, all of these types have different heights and lifting options.
Mechanical jack: ease of use and the principle of operation of a rotating handle that rotates the screw by means of which the jack is lifted, the disadvantages that such a jack requires considerable physical forces, and the advantage that they are durable and have a high lifting capacity.
Hydraulic jack: The principle of this type of operation is that the pump is mechanically pushed by the handle, which pushes out the cylinder inside, thus lifting the vehicle.
Pneumatic jack: the screw in the jack is unscrewed, through which air enters the jack, inside it is compressed, the pressure pushes the cylinder out.
