BIG RED T91203B Torin Hydraulic Welded Bottle Jack, 12 Ton (24,000 lb) Capacity, Red

Heavy duty Jack used to lift a 40’ container Easy to use

I use this jack for jacking up huge tree trunks so I can cut logs to the size I need. It works beautifully. I put a sturdy plywood under the jack to prevent it pushing into the ground instead of lifting the tree and a small piece of plywood between the tree and jack so it won't insert itself in the tree rather than lifting it. Cut off a few lengths, lower the jack, move it back down the tree trunk, jack it up again and cut off a bunch more. I'm talking about a 70 foot tall tree about 18 inches in diameter. Will be using it on others. There are other tools I have for smaller trees. But for the big ones this works great.

Built well

The Jack is nice and heavy, welded base. I lifted the back of my 763 bobcat with it for my first test, It worked well. I bought it for my Ram 3500, to keep in my truck, it fits in my RAM box. I only gave 4 Stars, because the nice welded jack, has a cheesey plastic release screw. Also, the screw is too close to the ground, it's hard to release slowly. You used to be able to turn release screws with the end of the jack handle. The handle won't fit over the screw at all. I'm disappointed in the release screw quality. It's extremely cheap, compared to the rest of the jack!

Works great for small upright log splitter

ideal solution for pickups or trucks ... small enough to fit under the axle and lifts tall enough to lift frams if needed ideal combination and has lots of lifting power ... works great ... mine came with box saturated with hydraulic fluid from overpressure valve venting ... and it takes a LOT of pumping to raise it up so ... be a bit patient ... it is a high volume jack cylinder and a small pump volume ... good ratio to lift heavy loads ... but that means lots of pumping to get it up valve was "stiff" so expect to need a bit more force first few uses to get it open enough to go down ... and closed enough to go up. Once used a few times it is fine ... mostly they just painted the threads ... and you need to work that out of the threads on the "valve" unit first uses ... fine points of quality polish as not there ... but who cares ... it works, does as good a job as the 300 buck units ... and is durable as hell ... not buying it for an art exhibit anyhow ...

Bought two of them. They looked identical. Threaded out the ram extensions and no issues there. I pumped them both up about an inch and was able to push the ram down by hand and a little chest weight. Pretty much like any bottle jack of this size or smaller. Took one along with a shipping container lift and lifted a corner of my 40 foot hi-cube. This shipping container is full of stuff but this particular corner also had 700 lbs of bentonite clay piled in it. Lifted the container effortlessly, ram fully extended, but not before the jack submerged a 6" thick solid concrete retaining wall brick into the soft ground. I need a bigger brick. I should've taken a video but forgot. Soon I'll see how each lifts the back end of my 17k pound backhoe and post the results. Oh yeah. The top of the ram fit the pocket of this shipping container lift: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRRLZJWM?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

My 6 ton would lift one corner of my travel trailer but with difficulty and effort. This one could lift the entire thing, and lifts one side of it with ease, I could barely tell I had a load on it. Well made, hefty, and not so tough to pull the piston down after use, though certainly not easy. Fit and finish are excellent. This is my 2nd Torin, I'll certainly buy another should I need one. Instructions are clear, though minimal, but it's pretty intuitive and straightforward, I read them as an afterthought. I'm going to serious look at their 20 ton with air over hydraulics for my next one.

Does the job no bother

Fair price, quality, but it would be perfect, if it has hard case, comes with it.

Awesome item for the amazing Amazon price! Well made! Topped up oil (minor leakage during storage and shipping I am guessing) and purged air as per instructions and works as marketed!

Le cric 50 tonnes en titre ne fait que 12

Over a year being used daily in an auto shop for the shop press for bearings and bushing; works like a charm. Replaced our old leaking jack.
