Axle Stands
When lifting vehicles, safety is paramount. Axle stands provide the secure support needed once a vehicle has been raised by a jack or lift, ensuring technicians can work confidently beneath cars, vans, or light commercial vehicles. Unlike jacks, which are designed for lifting only, axle stands are specifically built to hold the vehicle in place for as long as necessary.
Available in a variety of weight capacities and adjustable heights, axle stands are an essential part of every professional garage, MOT station, and tyre bay, offering stability and peace of mind for both technicians and customers.
