The BendPak HD-9XW is an extra-tall, 9,000-lb. capacity four-post lift designed to maximize your vertical space without sacrificing performance or safety. Engineered for both residential garages and commercial facilities, this high-rise model is ideal for vehicle storage, detailing, service work, and even storing ATVs, snowmobiles, jet skis, golf carts, and boats. With a max rise of 82" and a maximum lifting height of 86.5", the HD-9XW gives you the clearance you need to double your garage capacity or create comfortable under-vehicle workspace—all with standard 8-foot ceilings.
This is not a hobby lift. BendPak's expert engineers have packed the HD-9XW with commercial-grade features typically reserved for heavy-duty service models: heavy-duty 3/8" aircraft cable, a single hydraulic cylinder hidden beneath the runway, multi-position safety locks in each column, and a freestanding design that requires no special foundation. Optional casters let you roll the lift wherever you need it. Backed by over 40 years of industry leadership and a reputation built on reliability, this lift is everything you'd expect from BendPak—and more.
Heavy-Duty Aircraft Cable: Each HD-9XW is equipped with 4 high-quality stainless steel lifting cables, each rated at 14,400 lbs. The combined rating is an astounding 640% of the lift's maximum capacity, ensuring extreme reliability and longevity. All lifting cables, airlines, safety latches, and sheaves are fully enclosed within the lift structure for a clean, safe appearance and protected operation.
Dual-Hub Cable Sheaves: BendPak insists on using dual-hub cable sheaves to reduce stress and fatigue on axles, sheaves, and cables. This design choice costs more to manufacture but delivers unmatched durability and peace of mind—standard equipment, not an upgrade.
Oversized, Self-Lubricating Rollers: The lift features oversized self-lubricating cable rollers and rugged 1-1/4" roller axles for smooth, maintenance-free operation over the life of the lift.
Single Hydraulic Cylinder: Mounted underneath the runway for minimal exposure and maximum protection, the HD-9XW's industrial-grade hydraulic cylinder features a single-piece, pilot-fitted, machined steel piston with specially designed pressure-loaded U-cup piston seals and wear bands to virtually eliminate fluid bypass. The micro-smooth chrome rod is machined from high-yield, ground and polished C-1045/50 micro-alloy steel, plated to a minimum of .001" diametrically, ensuring superior operation and longevity. High-durometer, mechanically-loaded rod seals eliminate leakage, while a urethane rod wiper provides abrasion-resistant exclusion protection. The welded cylinder body exceeds ASTM specifications, and an integrated flow restrictor provides controlled descent in the event of an unexpected hose rupture.
Electric / Hydraulic Power System: The lift incorporates a maintenance-free electric hydraulic power system with conveniently located controls within easy reach. The motor operates on 220 VAC / 60 Hz / 1Ph power and produces just 45 dB of noise—quieter than normal conversation—for comfortable operation in any environment.
The HD-9XW is equipped with 15 multi-position adjustable safety locks spaced every 4 inches for precise, variable-height parking and service positioning. Automatic safety locks engage continuously as the lift rises, utilizing aircraft-quality stainless steel and aluminum pneumatic cylinders for reliable performance. A convenient push-button pneumatic control releases all four independent locks simultaneously—no manual disengagement required.
For added security, the HD-9XW features independent backup slack-cable safety latches in each column. These secondary locks engage automatically in the unlikely event of cable failure, providing an extra layer of protection. Internal anti-sway slider blocks in each column further enhance stability and safety during operation.
Air Supply Required:
An air supply (minimum 30 psi / 3 CFM) is required for the safety-lock mechanisms to disengage. It is solely the responsibility of the end-user to provide, install, and maintain the air supply.
Large Base Plates: Each column rests on 10" × 12" base plates that provide a solid, stable foundation without requiring anchor bolts or special concrete work.
Durable Powder-Coat Finish: All HD-Series lifts are finished with BendPak's meticulous 10-step powder-coating process. Parts are sandblasted, washed in a 5-stage phosphate system, dried, and outgassed in a curing oven to prevent blemishes. After masking threaded holes and surfaces, parts are electrostatically coated and cured at 400°F for 45 minutes. The result is a high-quality, extremely durable finish that withstands harsh environmental and chemical conditions—far superior to "powder coat" claims from competitors.
Non-Skid Runway Surface: Runways feature a non-skid surface for secure vehicle positioning and safe operation. Removable approach ramps provide additional drive-under clearance when not in use, and longer approach ramps are designed to help load low ground-clearance vehicles with ease.
The HD-9XW is designed to grow with your needs. The customizable power unit location allows you to position the motor where it's most convenient for your space. Runways include an integrated rail-kit for mounting optional accessories such as:
