Lifting Jacks
Yale’s jacks can be divided into three main types. All have the same high standards of construction and function, but boast different features.
Mobile jacks (fixed anvil) should be used on a flat workshop floor. The complete jack is moved to the vehicle for lifting utilising a pallet truck supplied with the jack.

Mobile jacks (moving anvil) are similar to those detailed above, but the moving anvil allows the jack to be used in a fixed position. The anvil can be extended to reach a vehicle and retracted to allow it entry/exit from the depot.
Rail mounted jacks use rails running parallel to the maintenance road. They incorporate a moving anvil to allow the jack to interface with the vehicle from a fixed position.
Yale’s range includes:
- Six and ten-tonne jacks for trams, metro/light rail and underground trains
- 15 and 20-tonne jacks for rail coaches and multiple units
- 25 and 35-tonne jacks for locomotives and on-track plant
- 45-tonne plus jacks for special applications
