Description
A HARDEN 20T bottle jack is a hydraulic jack designed for lifting heavy loads, typically up to 20 tons (40,000 lbs). It features a sturdy steel bottle-shaped body, a base for stability, and a saddle on top of the piston that makes contact with the load. The jack is operated by pumping a handle, which increases hydraulic pressure to raise the piston and the load.
