Features

The BendPak 10APX-181 combines revolutionary engineering, extended overhead clearance, and advanced safety systems to deliver unmatched performance when servicing tall and high-roof vehicles.

Extended 181″ Overhead Beam
The defining feature of the 10APX-181 is its 181″ (4,597 mm) overhead beam — versus 157″ (3,988 mm) on the standard 10APX — delivering the headroom to raise and service high-roof cargo vans and taller EVs, while retaining the same 79.5″ (2,007 mm) lifting height.

Automatic Arm Restraints
The patented ASARS system locks arms securely in place with over 2,000 lbs of holding force, ensuring unmatched safety during vehicle servicing.

Triple-Telescoping Swing Arms
Revolutionary triple-telescoping arms offer maximum retraction and extension, accommodating a variety of vehicle lifting points with ease.

Low-Profile Arm Versatility
Low-Pro™ swing arms provide easy access to low-clearance vehicles while minimising the risk of damage to side skirts, running boards, and other sensitive areas.

Advanced Safety Lock System
The innovative safety lock system engages automatically during lift operations and features a single-point release for smooth and effortless lowering.

Screw Pads and Adapter Options
Double-telescoping screw pads with tear-resistant polyurethane ensure secure vehicle engagement, with optional stackable adapters for added lifting precision.

Bi-Metric™ Swing Arm Design
Adaptable Bi-Metric™ arms allow for quick switching between symmetric and asymmetric configurations, improving efficiency for diverse vehicle servicing.

Engineered with high-tensile steel and oversized components, the 10APX-181 is built to handle the increased weight of modern electric and heavy-duty vehicles with ease.
