Jacking Beams and Mobile Equipment

Paving the way for hydraulic jacking beams, the double extension top beam has created a new standard for safety and ease of use.

Our jacking beams and specialist hydraulic lifting equipment make life easier and safer for thousands of garages and commercial workshops that demand reliability.

Boston appreciates the importance of equipment that continues to perform – our standard 2 and 2.8 tonne jacking beams come with an unprecedented three year warranty. Both are approved for MoT and available with pneumatic operation.

In the garage industry, reliability means safety. You can buy Boston with confidence.

Boston Jacking Beams are available with different load capacities, 2.0, 2.8, 4 and 6 tonne. The BJB20 is the smallest in our range but has a hefty 2.0 tonne lifting capacity. This beam is used mostly in Class 4 MoT testing stations and has a double extending top beam for extra wide reach, ideal for the larger vehicles now common in the UK market. All beams come as standard with adjustable height screw pads and lifting blocks.
