Overview
The BendPak PCL-18B-4 LOW VOLTAGE Mobile Column Lift System is a professional-grade heavy-duty lifting solution designed for commercial fleet service and large vehicle maintenance. This set of four mobile columns delivers a combined 72,000 lbs lifting capacity, making it ideal for two-axle heavy-duty trucks and commercial semi-trucks. Each column features an 18,000 lbs capacity and utilizes an energy-efficient electric-hydraulic power system that requires no constant recharging. The portable, surface-mounted design eliminates excavation costs while providing exceptional maneuverability with pallet-jack style steering controls and a tight turning radius. Advanced safety features include automatic locks spaced every four inches, inverted hydraulic cylinders with integrated safety valves, and programmable height settings for shops with varying ceiling heights.

Key Features
Portable Surface-Mounted Design
No excavation or permanent installation required. Pallet-jack style steering wheels with 180-degree handle provide exceptional maneuverability in compact areas. Three strokes of the handle raise the column off the floor for instant portability.
Energy-Efficient Electric-Hydraulic System
On-demand power system requires no constant recharging, providing measurably longer work cycles. Enclosed design ensures quieter operation suited for sound-sensitive areas with low-mounted power units for lower center of gravity.
Advanced Multi-Level Safety
Multiple automatic independent safety locks spaced every four inches ensure safe operation. Inverted hydraulic cylinders feature integrated safety valves to prevent uncontrolled lowering in the event of oil pressure loss.
Multi-Width Adjustable Forks
Extended forks with locking pins accommodate wheel widths from 9.5 to 35 inches, eliminating the need for specialty wheel adapters. Handles wide tires and deep wheel configurations on vehicles from passenger cars to heavy-duty trucks.
Smart Electronics & Controls
Sealed linear potentiometers ensure precision synchronization of all columns. Self-diagnostics and self-calibration functions with programmable variable height limit settings. Two-speed lowering option provides turtle or rabbit speed settings.
Simplified Cable Management
Just three 30-foot cables are used for a four-column set, leaving the front or back of the lift clear of cable obstructions. Intuitive controls allow the lift to be fully programmed and controlled from any column.
