Product overview

The BendPak 12APX moves the AP-series concept into a 5,443 kg class for workshops that need more capacity than the 10AP family. The clearfloor design provides open access between the columns, while wide column spacing and long-reach arms suit a broad mix of heavier passenger and commercial vehicles. With approximately 2,013 mm published lifting height with pad, the model is aimed at professional bays where extra capacity and useful working height are both priorities.
