Product overview

The Iron Lift FORGE 45A adds 4,500 kg capacity to a layout designed for workshops that see a wide variety of passenger and light-commercial vehicles. Its arm geometry allows vehicles to be loaded in more than one position, helping the technician balance lifting-point access with useful door-opening room. Long carriages provide a substantial guided section through the columns, while dual direct-drive hydraulic cylinders handle the lift. The clear-floor arrangement keeps the bay open underneath the vehicle and the single-point lock release allows both column locks to be released from the operating side.
