Fuchs Hydraulik manufactures hydraulic pit jacks for the modern commercial vehicle workshop. Available in 2 types, traditional “hanging” models supported on pit rails or floor mounted models where pit rails can’t be used. Pit jacks can be manual, pneumatic or electric on operation. As a German company with headquarters and production in Rhineland-Palatinate, with our products we stand for quality “Made in Germany”.

All our in-house manufactured jacks are CE certified and low-maintenance. As standard equipment we use on polished, hard chrome-plated pistons and robust piston guides. Our chassis are designed to be extremely rigid and are custom-made to your pit dimensions without additional cost. The delivery of the commercial vehicle pit jack is fully assembled and ready to use. A support plate is included in the scope of delivery. We offer supports with commercial vehicle-specific connection devices available as accessories.

Needle bearing rollers are used in the hanging models, ensuring smooth movement on the pit rail. All versions are equipped with automatic locking under load. Fuchs Hydraulik pit jacks are based on the “plunger” principle. In these systems the piston is permanently surrounded by oil and thus protected against corrosion. No additional support systems are required during the execution of common servicing work using Fuchs Hydraulik pit jacks.

The lifting rams of our jacking units can be moved transversely allowing asymmetrical distributed loads to be lifted safely. Generously dimensioned pistons of solid material guarantee maximum stability without the use of additional support systems. The lowering of the load takes place via a continuously variable manual flow valve, which closes automatically on release.
