Scissor jacks and universal jacks for the tool kit that ships with the vehicle.
Mechanical scissor jacks, universal jacks and light hydraulic formats for original-equipment tool kits, roadside sets, tyre service and distributor assortments.
Scissor and Universal Jacks
Scissor jacks are bought in volume against a fixed specification: base plate size, closed height, maximum height, thread pitch, handle or crank format and the finish that resists road salt. Because the jack travels inside the vehicle, weight and coating matter as much as load rating.
One scissor jack family usually serves several channels at once. The same base tooling supports the OE tool-kit version, the retail version in a blow-moulded case and the promotional version with a printed sleeve, so artwork and packaging change without changing the jack. Universal and agricultural formats with wider bases are produced alongside.
Sourcing this family in one sentence
A scissor jack is specified by load rating, closed height, maximum height and base plate size, with coating and kit packaging agreed on the order.
| Field | Why it matters | Typical buyer input |
|---|---|---|
| Load rating | Matches vehicle kerb weight and published rating | 1 t, 1.5 t, 2 t for passenger car tool kits |
| Geometry | Decides whether the jack clears the sill and lifts high enough | 105 mm closed, 385 mm maximum height, base 130 mm |
| Drive and handle | Affects operator effort and kit design | Forged screw, hook handle, foldable crank, ratchet wrench |
| Coating | Controls corrosion life in roadside conditions | Zinc plating, powder coating, electrophoretic coating |
| Kit packaging | Defines the retail or OE set | Blow-moulded case, fabric bag, printed sleeve, master carton |
| Order and market | Fixes quantity break and document list | OE tool kit volume, retail program, promotional run |
