BendPak 10AP-168 Pro Series Adj-Width Ex-Tall ALI 2 Post Lift Package

As the automotive landscape evolves with increasingly advanced technology and diverse vehicle types, professional service facilities demand lifting equipment that meets the challenges of modern repair work. The BendPak 10AP-168 Pro Series Two-Post Lift Package represents a revolutionary advancement in automotive lifting engineering—combining extreme-use durability, heavy-load capacity, and uncompromising operator safety into one comprehensive, ALI-certified professional-grade package.

This premium extra-tall lift features an impressive 168" overall height, providing mechanics with the critical overhead clearance required for tall trucks, oversized SUVs, and commercial vehicles. With a robust 10,000 lb. (4,536 kg) lifting capacity and a maximum rise of 69 inches (1,753 mm), the 10AP-168 delivers professional-grade performance for shops handling diverse vehicle fleets ranging from compact cars to heavy-duty trucks.

Beyond exceptional lifting power, this complete turnkey package includes everything needed for immediate productivity and maximum versatility: WSA-100 Air & Electrical Service Unit with four 110V GFI outlets (featuring 20 amp industrial GFI protection) and dual air service lines, a full set of Frame Cradle Pads (60mm pin) for safely lifting trucks and SUVs, Medium (2.5") and Tall (5") Adapters (60mm) for versatile vehicle contact points, and a convenient Adapter Holder for organized storage. This comprehensive solution eliminates costly add-ons and gets your bay operational faster.

The adjustable-width design allows you to configure the lift with inside column clearances of either 108.5" or 118.5" (2,756 mm or 3,010 mm), providing 97.5" or 107.5" drive-thru clearance (2,477 mm or 2,731 mm). This flexibility ensures optimal fitment for your specific bay dimensions and vehicle service requirements without purchasing separate models.

The BendPak PRO-Series two-post lift is built to address the most demanding automotive service environments with advanced features that prioritize flexibility, safety, and efficiency:

• Expandable Top Beam Design: Seamlessly adapts to both wide and narrow drive-thru configurations, accommodating inside column widths from 108.5" to 118.5" without purchasing additional components. Overall width adjusts to either 135" or 145" (3,431 mm or 3,683 mm)
• Exclusive Bi-Metric™ Arm Technology: Switch instantly between symmetric and asymmetric lifting configurations without changing arms—dramatically increasing bay versatility and service speed for different vehicle types
• Four Triple-Telescoping Arms: Three-stage arms retract shorter and extend farther than traditional designs, with front arm reach from 24.5" (622 mm) to 50" (1,270 mm) and rear arm reach from 32" (813 mm) to 59.25" (1,505 mm)—maximum positioning flexibility
• Automatic Swing Arm Restraints: Forged steel restraints withstand over 2,000 lbs. of side force with 360-degree grip for unmatched stability during vehicle movement, tire removal, and undercarriage work
• Double-Telescoping Screw Pads: Offer 2" (51 mm) of fine adjustment per pad, allowing precise positioning at multiple contact points to safely accommodate a wide range of vehicle frames and unibody designs
• Drop-End Arms: Provide a lower minimum pad height of just 4" (102 mm) to lift low-profile sports cars, sedans, and vehicles with minimal ground clearance
• Single-Point Safety Release: Simple, intuitive control reduces operator error and speeds up vehicle lowering procedures while maintaining full safety lock engagement

The 10AP-168 model features oversized 53" and 59" tall carriages that provide superior strength and durability compared to standard-height designs. These extended carriages support the extra-tall overhead configuration while maintaining structural rigidity throughout the entire lift cycle. Combined with dual hydraulic direct-drive cylinders and an electric/hydraulic HVLP power system running on 220 VAC / 60 Hz. / 1Ph, this lift achieves full rise in approximately 45 seconds—keeping your workflow efficient without compromising precision or safety.

Safety is engineered into every component. A padded overhead safety shutoff bar prevents accidental over-lifting and protects vehicles from contact damage at maximum rise. Safety locks in each column engage automatically every 3 inches throughout the entire rise, providing continuous mechanical backup to the hydraulic system at all lift heights. Heavy-duty 1/2" aircraft-quality equalizer cables with oversized sheave diameter reduce cable fatigue and ensure smooth, synchronized lifting operation for decades of reliable service.

The advanced self-lubricating dura-glide UHMW polyethylene bearing system eliminates the need for frequent maintenance while delivering whisper-quiet operation (less than 70 dB noise level). This precision-engineered bearing technology reduces friction, extends component life, and keeps your shop environment comfortable for technicians working nearby throughout the day.

The lift's durable powder coat finish provides long-lasting protection against shop chemicals, moisture, and daily wear, ensuring your investment maintains its professional appearance for years while resisting corrosion and surface damage.

The 10AP-168's rise specifications make it exceptionally versatile for a wide range of service scenarios. With a maximum rise of 69" (1,753 mm), you achieve excellent working height for undercarriage access. Add the included pads and you reach 73" (1,854 mm) of total rise. When you need even more height for lifted trucks or specialized applications, the included tall 63mm adapters extend your total rise to an impressive 82.5" (2,096 mm).

Each of the four arms is rated for a maximum load of 2,500 lbs. (1,134 kg), allowing balanced lifting of the full 10,000 lb. capacity across all four contact points. The screw pad adjustment provides 2" (51 mm) of fine-tuning per pad to accommodate uneven frames, different pinch weld heights, and specific manufacturer lift point requirements.

The floor to overhead safety switch is positioned at 163" (4,140 mm) on the 10AP-168 model, ensuring adequate clearance for the padded shutoff bar while accommodating facilities with standard commercial ceiling heights. The outside column width measures 127.5" or 137.5" (3,239 mm or 3,493 mm) depending on your width configuration. This extra-tall configuration is ideal for shops servicing modern trucks, vans, and SUVs that exceed the capabilities of standard-height lifts.

With approximately 45 seconds to full rise, you minimize vehicle wait time and maximize bay throughput without sacrificing smooth, controlled operation. This performance is critical in high-volume shops where every minute counts toward daily productivity and customer satisfaction.

This isn't just a lift—it's a comprehensive service bay solution designed to handle the full spectrum of automotive service work.
