The hydraulic aircraft jack is an essential piece of ground support equipment (GSE) designed specifically for aviation maintenance applications. This heavy-duty lifting device features a robust hydraulic system combined with mechanical screw adjustment for precise height control during aircraft servicing operations.
Constructed with a stable tripod base, the jack incorporates a high-pressure hydraulic cylinder with telescoping piston and adjustable screw mechanism. The integrated oil tank and dual pump system (high-pressure and low-pressure) ensure smooth operation and reliable lifting performance. The U-shaped handle design provides optimal leverage and control during operation.
These aircraft jacks are primarily used as lifting points for fuselage, wings, and landing gear maintenance. The hydraulic system allows for safe elevation of aircraft off the ground or deck, creating necessary clearance for repairs, inspections, and component installations. The tripod configuration ensures stability during all lifting operations.
Available in multiple capacity options, these jacks meet various aircraft maintenance requirements. The screw rod extension provides additional height adjustment capability beyond the hydraulic stroke, while the compact base height allows for use in space-constrained areas.
