On the HDS-14LSX those are all a size up. Roller axles are a rugged 1.75 in., the dual-hub cable sheaves are 10.5 in. in diameter and ride on 2.25 in. sheave axles, and heavy-duty 1\/2 in. aircraft cable runs through each column. Lifting cable does not usually fail by being overloaded; it fails by fatigue, from being bent tightly around a small sheave a few thousand times. Specifying a large sheave and a fat axle is an unglamorous decision that shows up ten years later, and it is the honest reason to choose this rack over a cheaper one with the same capacity plate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCapacity is 14,000 lbs. (6,350 kg), 7,000 lbs. (3,175 kg) per axle, on runways extended 30 in. beyond BendPak's standard-length model so that long-wheelbase trucks, crew cabs and limousines fit on the rack rather than over the end of it.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eLength first. Overall length is 272 in. (6,908 mm) with ramps, 243 in. (6,172 mm) without, and the columns stand 92 in. (2,337 mm) tall — so this rack usually needs the bay depth planned around it rather than fitted into what is left over. Overall width is 130 in. (3,302 mm), with 120 in. (3,048 mm) between the columns and 98 in. (2,489 mm) of drive-thru clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorking heights: minimum runway height 7.5 in. (191 mm), maximum rise 70 in. (1,778 mm) under the runway, and 77.5 in. (1,969 mm) to the top of the runway. That 70 in. figure is the one to check against your own height — it is what determines whether you stand up under a vehicle or stoop through the job. Runways are 20 in. (508 mm) wide and adjust from 34.5 in. (876 mm) to 41.5 in. (1,054 mm) apart, putting the outside edges at 77.5 in. (1,969 mm) or 84.5 in. (2,146 mm).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA runway length we will not pick a side on.\u003c\/strong\u003e The manufacturer's description of this lift quotes 229 in. runways. The specification block on the same page lists the length of runways as 227.5 in. (5,778 mm). We are not going to average them or choose the flattering one — if the runway length is load-bearing for your bay layout or your alignment equipment, ask us and we will confirm it against the current factory drawing before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePower is 220 VAC, 60 Hz, single phase, with the power unit rated at 45 dB. The concrete and the electrical supply are the customer's responsibility: the slab must carry a freestanding four-post rack plus 14,000 lbs. of vehicle, and the circuit needs to be in before installation day. Both are specified in BendPak's installation manual, linked from this page.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eBase plates, locks and the second line of defence\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach column stands on a 10 in. x 12 in. base plate — large enough to spread load into the slab, small enough not to eat the walking space between bays. Whether a given installation may be run freestanding is a question for your installer and your local requirements, not for a product page.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThere are 15 locking positions in each column, spaced every 4 in. (102 mm), enclosed inside the columns so the pinch points are covered. The locks engage continuously as the runways rise, all four together, and the ladders are adjustable so the runways can be levelled against a floor that slopes — a genuinely common problem in older shops and one that ruins alignment work if it is not corrected. A pneumatic push-button releases them on the way down, and an independent slack-cable latch system sits behind the primary locks, ready to catch and stabilise the platforms if a cable ever develops slack.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSet up for alignment work, and for everything else\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eMid to long-style approach ramps reduce the drive-on angle that catches a low car's front lip, and carry built-in rear wheel chocks. Cables, sheaves, air lines and the cylinder run inside the structure. The runways take a rail kit and a matte finish that hides tyre scuffing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRolling bridge jacks are the accessory that changes what this rack can do. Rated at 7,000 lbs. each, they raise the vehicle by its frame while it sits on the runways, so wheels and brakes can be serviced without moving it to a second lift — the practical way a four-post pays for itself in a general shop. Drive-thru ramps and drip trays are also offered.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCommercial shops expanding into alignment\u003c\/strong\u003e without giving up a general-service bay to do it.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTruck and fleet work\u003c\/strong\u003e where wheelbases run long and capacity has to cover a loaded three-quarter tonne.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTyre and suspension specialists\u003c\/strong\u003e who need bridge jacks and a rack in one footprint.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSerious home and collection garages\u003c\/strong\u003e with the bay depth for it — 272 in. is a real commitment.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFour-post structure with 10 in. x 12 in. base plates\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRunways with rail kit and matte finish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMid to long-style approach ramps with built-in rear wheel chocks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eElectric\/hydraulic power unit with customisable mounting position\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSingle hydraulic cylinder mounted beneath the runway\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEnclosed cables, sheaves and multi-position safety locks with pneumatic push-button release\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIndependent backup slack-cable safety latches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eOptional: 7,000 lbs. rolling bridge jacks, drive-thru ramps and drip trays.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eLifting capacity\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e14,000 lbs.
