Pneumatic Lift saTra S-ABJ5 5.0T 145–400mm adjustable lifting range

The saTra S-ABJ5 pneumatic lift is a 5.0-ton capacity jack with an adjustable lifting range of 145–400 mm designed for professional workshop use. Operated by compressed air, this compact pneumatic jack provides rapid, controlled lifting and lowering for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. Its low-profile base and adjustable saddle height make it suitable for tyre changes, brake and suspension work, and underbody inspections where a reliable, high-capacity pneumatic solution is required.

Advantages

The pneumatic operation ensures fast, consistent lifting speed with reduced operator effort compared to manual jacks. The adjustable lifting range from 145 to 400 mm accommodates a variety of vehicle ride heights and enables both low-clearance entry and higher lift positions for underbody access. The compact footprint allows use in crowded service bays and lifts into place quickly for repetitive tasks. Built for workshop environments, the design emphasizes durability, stability and simple control for safe operation under routine maintenance conditions.

Suitable for

• Tyre changes and wheel service in garages and tyre shops
• Brake, suspension and underbody inspections and repairs
• Rapid lifting in busy service bays where time and repeatability matter
• Light commercial vehicles and passenger cars within the stated load and height range

When it may not be suitable

This pneumatic lift is intended for indoor workshop use with access to compressed air. It is not designed for outdoor use where the air supply or environmental protection is inadequate. It also may not be appropriate for very high-clearance vehicles or heavy commercial trucks that exceed the 5.0-ton capacity or require greater lift height than 400 mm.

Key specifications

• Load capacity: 5.0 tonnes
• Adjustable lifting range: 145–400 mm
• Operation: compressed air (pneumatic)
• Low-profile base for entry under low-clearance vehicles
• Compact footprint suitable for workshop bays

How to use

Position the jack under the vehicle at a manufacturer-approved lifting point and ensure the ground is level and stable. Connect the jack to a suitable compressed air supply following the workshop’s air system requirements. Use the pneumatic controls to raise the saddle to engage the vehicle, then lift to the required working height within the specified range. Lower the vehicle slowly and under control when the work is complete. Follow all workshop safety procedures, support the vehicle with appropriate stands before performing underbody work, and inspect the equipment for damage before each use.

What to consider before purchase

• Availability and pressure rating of a suitable compressed air supply in your workshop
• Vehicle types and lifting points to ensure the 145–400 mm range and 5.0 t capacity are sufficient
• Space in the service bay for a compact pneumatic jack and safe operation clearances
• Required accessories such as suitable lifting pads or adapters for different vehicle contact points

Usage recommendations

Inspect the jack and air connections before each use, always follow vehicle manufacturer lifting points, use vehicle support stands for safety during prolonged work, and maintain the compressed air system at recommended pressure and cleanliness to ensure reliable operation.
