The Katool KT-H120D is a heavy-duty two-post lift built for shops that demand capacity, reliability, and operational ease. With a rated lifting capacity of 12,000 lbs (approximately 5,500 kg), this lift handles trucks, SUVs, and more demanding vehicle types with confidence. The design incorporates a symmetric arm layout and a robust base-plate configuration to ensure even lifting and balanced load support across the structure. Dual hydraulic chain-drive cylinders provide smooth, synchronized motion as the lift raises and lowers, giving technicians consistent performance during daily operations.

Because many service bays have limited ceiling height, the KT-H120D is engineered to accommodate those constraints. Its total height allows for low ceiling clearance while still offering a maximum lifting height of about 74.8 in (1,900 mm). In its lowest position, the lift’s arms retract to a minimal height of approximately 4.25 in (110 mm), making it easier to drive vehicles on and off, even those with very low ground clearance. The drive-through clearance is about 98.43 in (2,500 mm), suitable for many work environments, while the column width and inside dimensions suit a wide range of vehicle chassis.

A single-point manual safety lock release allows the operator to unlock both columns from one side, simplifying the control workflow and reducing time wasted traversing from one column to another. Safety is further enhanced with rubber pad door protection to prevent damage to vehicle doors during operation. Screw-on lift pads and extension support adapters (such as +100 mm discs) expand compatibility with different frame designs, improving versatility. The lift uses a top-level hydraulic power unit, typically 4.0 HP running on a single-phase 220V/60 Hz supply (with optional configurations in some markets), offering strong torque while integrating into shop power systems.

In terms of structural dimensions, the columns stand approximately 110.94 in (2,818 mm) tall, and the overall width reaches about 140 in (3,555 mm). Outside column spacing is roughly 124.8 in, and inside spacing about 110.25 in, providing ample support for wider vehicles. The symmetric lift arms have arm extension ranges that serve a variety of lift points, with front arm reach spanning roughly 28.74 to 43.11 in and rear arm reach from 34.25 to 54.13 in. These reach ranges help accommodate vehicles with uneven or offset lifting points. The lift’s net weight is in the ballpark of 630 kg (about 1,389 lb), and the footprint requires robust concrete anchoring—shop floors should meet minimum 5.9 in (150 mm) thickness and 3,000 psi strength or better.

Operating the KT-H120D is intuitive: once the vehicle is positioned and the arms adjusted, activating the hydraulic motor raises the lift evenly. The chain-drive system ensures synchronized motion, and built-in safety locks engage every few inches during ascent. Lowering is controlled via the single-side release lever, enabling both columns to descend in tandem. The precise control, structural stability, and alignment consistency make the lift appropriate for busy repair environments. In addition, service and maintenance access is considered—hydraulic lines, the power unit, and safety lock mechanisms are reachable for inspection, lubrication, and occasional replacement, reducing shop downtime.

For shops planning to work on trucks, high-clearance vehicles, or routinely heavier loads, the Katool KT-H120D delivers the needed lifting capacity without sacrificing ease of use. It combines strength, safety, and functional flexibility into a package that supports full shop productivity. When installed properly and maintained, it offers years of dependable lifting service.
