BendPak Car Lift – 10APX-181 Pro Series 10,000‐lb. Capacity 2 Post Car Lift

The BendPak Car Lift 10APX-181 PRO-Series has been meticulously crafted to future proof your shop. Incorporating all the essentials for optimal vehicle servicing, this groundbreaking lift is able to effortlessly accommodate EVs. It also seamlessly transitions between symmetrical and asymmetrical configurations. The 10APX-181 PRO high-rise lift sports an overhead beam height of 181” to accommodate high-roof cargo vans.

Empowering the Future of EV Service

The 10APX-181 is an absolute game-changer for mechanics in tough spots. Say goodbye to discomfort and hello to a premium workspace. Built for tackling larger vehicles, the 10APX-181 PRO is your ultimate solution.

With a towering 181” overhead beam, this lift is perfect for high-roof cargo vans. Like the rest of the PRO Series, the 10APX-181 PRO offers a 10,000-lb. lifting capacity, Low-Pro™ arms, Bi-Metric™ arms, and a slew of top-notch features.

Stay ahead of the curve with BendPak’s revolutionary PRO Series two-post lifts. This series combines the best traits of modern lifts into a groundbreaking new design. The result? A lift that’s unmatched in the market, designed for rugged use, heavy loads, and exceptional safety and efficiency.

Reaching New Heights in Automotive Lifting

The PRO-Series offers the versatility of both wide and narrow installation options in a single, customizable package. These lifts are not only sturdy and secure but also feature BendPak’s Bi-Metric™ arms, which effortlessly handle both symmetric and asymmetric lifting. The 10APX-181 PRO combines simplicity with smart design, ensuring minimal maintenance costs and enhanced productivity.

As the automotive industry embraces new technologies, the future is shifting towards electric, hybrid, and solar-powered vehicles, moving away from traditional gas engines. With EVs projected to dominate future vehicle production, their increased weight poses new challenges for mechanic safety during service. The added weight stresses automotive lift components, particularly in two-post lifts.

Safety Through Innovation

That’s where the PRO-Series comes in – specifically engineered to meet these demands. Technicians can now efficiently service EVs, including trucks, vans, and sports cars. With ultra-low-profile arms and extra-wide column spacing, these lifts provide superior under-car access. BendPak’s use of high tensile-strength steels for all critical load-bearing components ensures maximum durability and safety.

This heightened tensile strength enabled BendPak’s engineers to develop swing arms with greater telescoping movement and tube profile better suited for low ground clearance vehicles and outer-positioned EV lifting points. Throughout the design process, safety-critical enhancements were introduced to ensure optimal performance and reliability.

EVs demand specialized lifts to safely manage their increased weight from added batteries, reinforced frameworks, suspension components, and protective armor. The PRO-Series is the ideal solution, with its reinforced construction and purposefully engineered design features.

Each PRO-Series model offers enhanced under-car access, increased arm travel, and minimal arm retraction, allowing versatile lift support positioning perfect for EV service needs. Swing arm restraints have long been used on two-post lifts to prevent arms from shifting during vehicle loading and service. However, traditional systems struggled to withstand the excessive forces when vehicles shifted unexpectedly due to improper loading or changes in the center of balance from heavy drivetrain components.

Revolutionary Automatic Swing Arm Restraint System

A significant design feature which sets the PRO-Series apart from the rest is its revolutionary Automatic Swing Arm Restraint System (ASARS)! This system is well-suited for heavy vehicle service and has been bolstered to withstand these elevated pushing and pulling forces that occur when vehicles are being serviced.

Featuring a full 360-degree load-holding grip, the patented forged-steel design delivers over 2000 pounds of holding force, keeping lift arms securely in place and preventing unplanned movement. This adaptive system requires minimal operator involvement and provides unmatched stability, thanks to its precision non-shifting action and quick-release operator lever for instant clamping release.

Lifting full-sized trucks or SUVs onto a two-post lift can be risky, but BendPak’s Frame Cradle Pads minimize that risk. These rugged pads ensure your vehicle only goes up and over when you decide. Built to last, Frame Cradle Pads feature heavy-duty steel and thick polyurethane rubber pad linings that endure heavy use. The textured surface protects your chassis frame from damage and reduces slippage, enhancing safety. With 35 mm or 60 mm diameter pins, these pads easily fit into our two-post lift arms.

The Perfect Air Supply for Your Lift

The WSA-100 air-electric workstation, the ultimate utility station for your shop. This powerhouse comes equipped with four electrical outlets and two specialized air service outlets, giving your workspace the versatility it needs to thrive.

The air service includes a pressure gauge and two outlets: one for lubricated air for tire inflation and another for clean air for pneumatic tools. An integrated filtration system ensures only clean air circulates in your workspace.

The four 110V electrical outlets feature 20-amp industrial GFI protection, perfect for powering any tool you need. Large hooks keep electrical cords neatly organized and offer extra storage space. Easy to install and built with industrial-grade technology, the WSA-100 is just what your shop or garage needs to boost efficiency and performance.

Take shop efficiency to the next level with the 10APX-181 PRO from BendPak!
