The BJA Series US Type Hydraulic Bottle Jack is manufactured to meet strict ANSI/ASME B30.1 standards, ensuring the highest safety margins and reliability for professional use. With a massive capacity range from 2 Tons up to 100 Tons, these jacks are built for rigorous industrial, construction, and heavy machinery applications.

🇺🇸 ANSI/ASME Standard

Compliance: Meets ANSI/ASME B30.1 standards favored in North American markets.

Range: Massive capacity options from 2 Ton up to 100 Ton for heavy structural lifting.

⚖️ Stability & Precision

Wide Base: Designed to distribute load weight effectively and prevent tipping.

Extension Screw: Heat-treated saddle screw (on models up to 20T) allows for precise height adjustment.

💪 Effortless Operation

Features a high-quality Glide Action Pressure Pump that requires minimal handle effort. Heavy-duty construction ensures durability in farm and construction environments.

🔧 Compact Storage

Includes a Two-Piece Pump Handle for easy operation in tight spaces and convenient disassembly for storage.

Q: What is the difference between US Type and European Type bottle jacks? A: US Type (BJA) jacks are built to ANSI/ASME B30.1 standards, typically featuring a wider base for stability. European Type (BJE) jacks follow CE/EN standards and usually require a mandatory safety overload valve.
Q: Does the 100-ton model have an extension screw? A: No, the heavy-duty models (25T, 32T, 50T, 100T) feature a solid ram for maximum strength and do not have the adjustable extension screw found on smaller models (2T-20T).

H-Lift Lifting Jacks

Hydraulic & Mechanical Jacks: Safety & Selection

Selecting the Correct Jack

Jacks may be hydraulic or mechanical in operation and are available in a wide range of capacities and designs. Proper selection is critical for safety.

Key Considerations:

  • Type: Hydraulic, ratchet, screw, or journal jack.
  • Dimensions: Capacity, closed height, lifting height, and overall dimensions.
  • Accessories: Toe/claw attachments, screwed ram with locking collar, calibrated gauges for load measurement.
  • Support: Packing materials needed during jacking and to support the load once raised.

Safety Guidelines

Always

  • Store and handle jacks correctly.
  • Inspect jacks before use and before placing into storage.
  • Ensure the surface is level, even, and capable of taking the imposed load.
  • Ensure the jack is positioned so the load is applied in the correct plane.
  • Use packing capable of withstanding loads without crushing.
  • Lift and lower in small stages using support packing to minimize load falls.

Never

  • Never obliquely load (side load) jacks.
  • Never raise the load higher than necessary.
  • Never over-extend the jack beyond its rated stroke.
  • Never leave a load supported solely on jacks (use stands/packing).
  • Never reach under a load supported by jacks.
  • Never work or climb on a load supported by jacks.

Operation & Maintenance

Using Jacks Safely

Multiple Jacks: Most operations require multiple jacks. It is impossible to raise/lower them in perfect unison, causing uneven loading. Ensure jack capacity is adequate to handle load transfer. Keep the load level.

Floor Stability: Ensure the floor can withstand the point load. Use floor plates to spread the load if necessary. Avoid buried cables or pipes.

Contact: The jack head must be in full, firm contact with the jacking point. Use packers to prevent slipping.

Storage & Handling

Store jacks upright with the ram/rack/screw fully lowered to protect them from damage. Remove handles/levers and store separately. Never store damaged jacks.

In-service Inspection

Clean jacks regularly to remove dirt from racks, screws, and seals. Check hydraulic oil levels. Lubricate moving mechanical parts.

Defects to Watch For:

  • Failure to lift or lower; load slipping/creeping.
  • Cracked or distorted body/base.
  • Bent operating levers.
  • Hydraulic: Oil leaks, scored/distorted rams, inoperative release valves.
  • Mechanical: Chipped/worn rack teeth or screws, seized swivel heads.
⚠️ WARNING: Excessive grease on ratchet jacks can cause the holding pawl to stick, potentially dropping the load.

Hydraulic Bottle Jack Guide

Uses, Operation Steps, and Safety Precautions

What is a Hydraulic Bottle Jack?

A Hydraulic Bottle Jack is a compact, heavy-duty lifting device that uses hydraulic pressure to lift heavy loads. Resembling the shape of a bottle, it consists of a vertical cylinder, a base, and a pumping mechanism.

Known for their high lifting capacity relative to their size, bottle jacks are capable of lifting loads ranging from 2 tons to over 50 tons, making them far more powerful than standard mechanical scissor jacks.

Common Applications

Automotive Repair

Lifting trucks, SUVs, and heavy vehicles for tire changes or axle repairs. (Note: Often too tall for low-profile sports cars).

Construction & Industrial

Supporting beams, lifting heavy machinery, or pressing bearings. Often used in construction for leveling structures.

Emergency Rescue

Used by fire and rescue teams for spreading or lifting debris in confined spaces due to their portability.

How to Use a Bottle Jack

Before You Start: Bleeding Air

New jacks may have trapped air. To purge it: Open the release valve, pump the handle 10 times, then close the valve. This ensures full lifting power.

Lifting a Load

  1. Secure the Vehicle/Load: Park on a hard, level surface. Apply the parking brake and chock the wheels.
  2. Position the Jack: Place the jack under the manufacturer-recommended lifting point (e.g., axle or frame rail).
  3. Adjust Screw Top: If the jack has an extension screw, unscrew it by hand until the saddle nearly touches the load.
  4. Pump to Lift: Close the release valve (turn clockwise). Insert the handle and pump up and down until the load reaches the desired height.
  5. Support with Stands: Immediately place Jack Stands under the load. Lower the jack slightly until the load rests securely on the stands.

Lowering a Load

  1. Lift Off Stands: Pump the jack to lift the load slightly off the jack stands.
  2. Remove Stands: Carefully remove the jack stands from underneath.
  3. Release Pressure: Slowly turn the release valve counter-clockwise. The load will descend. (Turning too fast can cause a dangerous crash).
  4. Retract: Once fully lowered, push the piston down manually if needed to store.

Safety Precautions

⚠ CRITICAL SAFETY WARNING

NEVER work under a load supported only by a jack. Hydraulic seals can fail without warning. Always use rated Jack Stands to support the load before going underneath.

  • Hard Surface Only: Use only on concrete or asphalt. On dirt or grass, the jack can sink or tip over.
  • Check Capacity: Never exceed the Rated Capacity (e.g., do not lift a 10-ton load with a 4-ton jack).
  • Center the Load: Ensure the load is centered on the jack saddle. Off-center loading can bend the ram or damage seals.
  • Store Upright: Always store the jack in an upright position to prevent hydraulic oil leaks and keep seals lubricated.
