Atlas Platinum PVL12 ALI Certified 12,000 lb Overhead 2 Post Lift
The Atlas® Platinum PVL12 is an ALI Certified two post commercial grade 12,000 lb. capacity Heavy-Duty lift designed with the professional shop in mind. The low pad height allows this lift to accommodate both long wheel base trucks and passenger cars. The extra distance between the columns accommodates wider vehicles or vehicles with wide rearview mirrors. The extra height is perfect for tall vans and box trucks. The Platinum PVL12 is also ALI certified and backed by one of the industry’s best warranties for an added peace of mind. The Atlas® Platinum PVL12 features a premium ALLY power unit which is certified by MET Laboratories Inc. for electrical compliance in the United States and Canada. Extra heavy-duty armatures and more motor windings with increased silver metal included in the wires and connections create far less heat generation and allow ALLY Hydraulic power units to maintain constant torque through the lifting process. This power unit also carries an industry leading two-year limited warranty. Features ALI Certified Lift 12,000 lb.
