APEX by BendPak has released the AL9C Two-Post Floorplate Car Lift, designed for shops and garages looking for professional lifting capability in low-ceiling environments. 

The AL9LC's floorplate design aims to maximize overhead clearance by eliminating the top crossbar found on many two-post lifts. The lift delivers several key features including:

• 9,000-lb capacity
• Flexible arm positioning allowing users to lift symmetrically or asymmetrically
• Triple-telescoping front arms, dual-stage rear arms for accessing a wide range of vehicle lifting points
• Automatic safety locks that engage every 3" for security
• Automatic arm restraints that keep swing arms in place for peace of mind
• Double-telescoping screw pads and stackable adapters to ensure secure, stable contact

Constructed with high-strength steel and reinforced components, the AL9LC is built to withstand demanding shop environments. A heavy duty 6" tubular steel carriage delivers superior load-bearing support, while oversized base plates ensure even weight distribution and stability.

The lift features a proven chain-over design with an industrial-grade leaf chain engineered to endure heavy loads and repeated lifting cycles without stretching or premature wear. Oversized heavy duty rollers with Zerk grease fittings, along with self-lubricating UHMW polyethylene guide blocks, reduce friction and wear.

A word from BendPak

“Low ceilings and limited budgets don’t have to dictate a shop’s potential,” says Tyler Rex, BendPak senior director of marketing. “The APEX AL9LC brings premium, uncompromised power to compact workspaces at a price point that makes sense.”
