A safety margin of two tons for a scissor jack designed to jack up only one corner of domestic cars weighing about two tons in total is an excellent safety margin.
That's true, but all jacks had generous safety margins despite all seems to be cheap models from China. It's good to know even the cheap ones won't break if you don't exceed the maximum capacity.
Scissor jacks are the most sensitive to not being on a smooth, level surface though, a bit of an angle massively reduces it's stability and strength which isn't really ideal when stuck on the side of the road.
@@Fists91 The rotating slotted cup offsets that somewhat , bottle and stirrup jacks are hardly immune to uneven surfaces. All their footprints are very similar.
If you use a sissor jack to work under your car then you deserve to die when it falls on you, its a crime manufacturers even include them in their trunks...
They are not included to work under cars but to take the wheels off. You are not supposed to use any jack to work under cars and manufacturers are not going to include axle stands to be stowed in the boot of the car.
@@Error-hc7mp i had 2, 3-ton stands on my 4000lb car and a jackstand holding the entire car up to do a tire rotation and i still had one of the 3 ton jack stands fail. Luckily i was not under the car.
For non-building applications I think a margin of safety of 2 is pretty standard (buildings are usually higher), so I wouldn’t call the jacks particularly unsafe on that front. The floor jack is probably actually the safest of the hydraulics because it’s less likely to kick out. That said, it’s ALWAYS dangerous to go under a car supported only by a jack. You should always block the wheels and use jack stands!
Yup it's all about using some common sense, bottle jacks and Hi-lifts catch a lot of flack for being "unsafe" but they are only as unsafe as the operator. Personally I enjoy jacks that can tip over, very handy in self recovery.
The mini floor hydraulic jacks are one of the unsafest from my experience. They are always the ones that mess up in one way or another.. Bottle jack has always been the safest for me.
You are right. Pretend your life depends on it, and go from there. I used big blocks of wood under the sills as Plan C, after stands (A) and a floor jack (B) working unsupervised. Never as A or B.
We always put wheels under car, just near the middle. It has great contact area, and never flip. Once it worked, and saved my arms) After that I saw a man, who was smashed by his car in garage. He worked alone, as many mens do in weekend, and he was lying few hours waiting for help.
bottle jack is going to be your safest jack, linear failure that drops straight down, the scissor jacks and the cheap floor jacks will shift the load when they fail, increasing the chance of an injury.
Not forget to mention... The scisdor jack is the easiest and lightest version... If you don't want to lift a suv or... A tank?! This will do its job also well xD
Great footage here, very useful for me, made me less afraid, lol. But one thing to take in consideration: these failures happened with the jacks correctly placed. If they were sitting in an uneven surface or angled while loading the car's weight, they could bent more easily or just tip over. So be careful while positioning them
- "Sir, we have some doubts on the circumstances that caused this failure in our product..." - "I was trying to lift a fucking spaceship." - "Fair enough".
Don't work under any vehicle using any jack. Use the jack for its intended purpose, lifting the vehicle, than use jack stands to keep it in place. If you have an unknown hydrolic leak, you can be trapped or killed.
Yeah, why havent they invented any locks on the floorjack exept the motorcycle jacks have some locking and also the car lifter jacks at the tire changing halls.
Death Wish83 ha must suck to need to jack up your vehicle to work on it I can just slide under my truck because it’s so tall and then I just jack it up and leave the jack under it to change tires I don’t buy cheap chinease shit so I trust my stuff enough for it to not fall and even if it did I’m not going to get hurt because when I’m changing tires I’m not under the car
@@offroadcanadian807 yeah, I use jacks all the time to lift my motorcycles... I was just giving real advice to all the at home mechanics who might not have had good teachers.
“There is not much mechanical that can fail here, so probably the hydraulics should be the only thing to fail.” The cylinder lift _itself_ has a mechanical failure before the hydrolics.

It's not so much the weight capacity of the jacks that concerns me. It's their horizontal stability. Bottle jacks have really small bases, so they can just tip over super easily. Hydraulic floor jacks have casters that let them roll forward as the vehicle lifts, so the jack can shift its position without tipping over.
David Simpson a scissor jack is ok enough for a quick tire change but I don’t trust one for anything more. I do a lot of work on my car and I have a 2 1/2 tomorrow floor jack and stands for picking my car up.
The strongest car jack is the Anti version of your hydraulic press from an alternate reality....where they have the Hydraulic Lift Channel, and they lift very heavy things and people ooooh and ahhhh at the mighty hydraulic lift.

As an auto tech I really appreciate this video. Making a living lifting 30000lb vehicles it’s nice to see a simple jack stand can hold up a whole dump truck if it had too
I knew the bottle jack would have the most extra safety capacity over all other mechanical or hydraulic. Now as far as the jack stand, I’d love to see how strong it would ultimately be if the shaft was just lowered to the bottom with out the pin in?
The scissor jack is meant to put your spare on when your real tire blows on the road to get you somewhere where your tire can be fixed or changed so 2 tons beyond the rating seems pretty good for me since that most vehicles I've encountered beyond like 1/4 tons have a hydraulic service jack or just straight gear jack
clayton masters oh is that so? You read where I said up-armored, right? So then you’re aware that a fully uparmor, M1151 with bravo inserts has a curb weight of about 10,500 lbs? Thats over 5 tons. Even the basic 1151 comes in at almost 4 tons. You ever driven an up armor HMMWV? It’s a lead sled. Even with a turbo it feels like you’re trying to pull a battleship out of the lake on s trailer. Throw in a TC, two dismounts, a gunner, a 30-80lb gun, gun turret (another half-3/4 ton, plus 800-1200 rounds of 7.62 or .50 BMG and you’re up over your gross maximum vehicle weight. Great truck though. As long as they don’t try to blow you up from directly underneath, in which case all that armor was kinda for nothin.
clayton masters since I said up armor in my OP, why are you trying to claim that’s not what you’re talking about? Even the old un-armored ones are surprisingly HEAVY. You’re just wrong, sorry guy.
Yeah I don't get that either... Most passenger cars weigh far less than 4 tons. Even SUVs and trucks. Scissor jacks are what are usually given with vehicles.
@@djw1091994 Because safety margins are there to account for the imperfections of reality, lots of variables like slightly uneven surface, vehicle pushing in a certain direction a bit rather than all the weight pushing directly downwards, these things reduce the maximum weight the jack will be safe to hold in those conditions compared to the weight it would be able to hold in a lab conditions test like this so while you might think "but 4 tons is almost enough to hold a military vehicle, surely that's way more than enough for the 2 tons it's rated for" I think you'll find that if you used it in reality it would fail with a weight less than that 4 tons measured here, that's why it's a safety margin and not an actual recommended load rating.
It's like he learned english only from reading books but not from speaking English or watching English tv/films, because he has a good vocabulary but has no idea how to pronounce words the way English speakers do. It's more than just an accent, it's fundamentally strange pronunciation!
This is one of the great YT channels of all time because this guy worked so hard to learn English and does pretty darn well considering he seems to have learned a lot from reading. My H1 Hummer jack I got for my Ford diesel truck has a wobbly topper on it that I can't seem to find a tool to stabilize for less than $70, but it was interesting to learn about safety, now on my search I go. Thank you.
Those screw jacks tend to fail unannounced when treads give out and there have been multiple deaths due bottle jack tipping over, so its not just the jack itself, but how well it can stay upright. Regardless what kind of jack you are using, never trust your life on it, but least put old rim under the car to prevent it from squishing you if car comes down.
I will also say Always Always use some jack stands. You can get 4 of them for 80 bucks Your life is worth more than 80 bucks and 30 seconds to put them under the vehicle.
Never use concrete blocks to hold up a car. They can fail suddenly some time after you've put the car on them (and you're underneath). Wooden blocks will fail right away, or not at all.
My theory: the safety valve in a bottle jack kicks in when you pump it, so if the vehicle is too heavy, you can't lift it in the first place. After it's lifted, in case something happens to increase the weight, the relief valve is no longer active; that jack will hold it up until the metal fails because there's no point in lowering a truck on your head to prevent it from being dropped.
@@skippygirl959 Gives the user a moment to panic-dodge out from under the falling weight, causes the jack stand to collapse into itself (which has a higher minimum height than bending it or tipping it over), and permits repair of the jack stand by replacing the pin. Tl;dr: Car doesn't fall as far, as fast, and (probably) doesn't smash the jack stand into a busted POS if the pin is the point of failure.
Thanks to these recommendations, I now know what to buy to raise my war tank and to be able to change the reserve explosive mines for a remote-controlled missile.
Cool video! Keep in mind that the pressure the press created directly on to the jacks is not the same pressure your car will create. If your car weighs 2 tons and you are using a 2 ton jack, the jack is not lifting 2 tons, it's lifting a percentage of the 2 tons as you aren't lifting the entire car (all 4 wheels) off the ground all at once with the one jack.
The bottle jack failed because the cylinder does not have a pressure relief valve. It is instead design so that the pump has a pressure relief valve. If the pump is at maximum pressure, the relief valve in the pump will stop the fluid for going to the cylinder. It will get pumped back to the reservoir instead.
Those scissor jack's are LETHAL, yours failed in a different way to mine. I was Extremely lucky. The part that the thread goes through completely stripped out and it slammed to the floor.. what happens with those scissor jack's over time is the repeat force on the threads from winding them up starts to wear them out and all of a sudden they give way. Some even come with PLASTIC thread housings.. they're not for repeat use. Deadly things.
Yeah they're really supposed to be emergency roadside use only, if they get any sort of regular repeated use as well I wouldn't trust them not to fail.
@Lassi Kinnunen yeah I suppose they're fine if you're not under the car and just changing tyres. But even if you buy a used car with a spare wheel kit nobody knows how much it's been used. You could use it for the 50th time! They're not very safe in my opinion
@@theduiguy794 yeah same, my old man taught me that when he showed me how to change a tyre years ago, but I've had to tell that to a surprising number of people...
The point of this is that you use the jack to only lift, and jack stands are the safest to use after lifting the vehicle initially! As you can see, jacks are not a long term usage thing
Still he thought the base would break first yet it’s made from triangles in a pyramid shape which is one of the strongest design structures. The pin was destined to break first.
It's good to know that the safety margins are still decent even on the crappy one. I bought two 20 ton bottle jacks to lift my parent's shed so I can put blocks under it, would be curious how those would fair out. :D I could probably make a small hydraulic press with them if I wanted to. They are decently inexpensive for the amount of force they can produce.
Have no idea how heavy the shed is (can't imagine it's more than a few tons) but the 20 ton jack was only a bit more expensive than the 5 ton, so why not. :D Having two just made the job easier as I could "walk" it up using 2x4's to alternate jacks.
@@redsquirrelftw lol , alright makes sense then, besides jacks always come in handy & rather be good for 10ton over what you need than 1 under, i just figured if its heavy enough to need two 20 ton jacks they filled that shed with something pretty dense... that or its not really a shed, anyways thanks for the confirmation & the laugh.
@@redsquirrelftw It's ALWAYS VERY BAD to not have the required capacity, even it that's only 0.001% under what is actually needed. There is no problem being grossly over capacity. It just increase your safety margin, and having a good safety margin is always a good thing.
I was surprised when you said the pin wouldn't be the point where it starts to fail, my reasoning was that the pipe was the thinnest part of the whole stand/jack.
This is very interesting. I always assumed that these lifting devices had a safety margin of 3:1, not 2:1. So this is a real eye opener, especially for me; I’m a military mechanic. The tools that we use are much much heavier than these though, which is good because we trust our lives to the equipment we use to lift vehicles and their components quite often.
I love the clearly visible safety margins with these tools. They all hold the rated weight, and hold the over capacity weight until failure. At least you have time to get out from under it as its failing, rather than it failing spontaneously.
Bottle jack is 6 tons compared to 2 ton scissor jack, and 2 ton floor jack. So divide that by 3 and you'll still get around 4.5 tons per 2 ton jack. About the same. The specifications for quality control out the door is 4 tons for 2 ton jack.
There was a guy in a town where I used to work named Peter King. I can just about picture the drill instructor if he'd ever gotten drafted. He'd probably just be like, "Naw. Whatever I could come up with has already been said. "
The hydrolic pressure relief valve only bypasses fluid at the pump. How much ever fluid that was previously pumped into the cylinder before crushing it cannot go anywhere the only option it has is to blow out the cylinder and piston seals or manually bled off using the handle to let the jack down. Really impressive that the seals held on that little cylinder.
Scissor check, floor check, potol check and then...... Check stand! :) Quick thing on the safety valve: That valve is meant to protect the tool from a dumb operator lifting something too heavy, NOT to protect the tool while the dumb operator underneath the car get crushed by the load coming down :)

It's like he learned english only from reading books but not from speaking English or watching English tv/films, because he has a good vocabulary but has no idea how to pronounce words the way English speakers do. It's more than just an accent, it's fundamentally strange pronunciation!
They say Finnish is one of the hardest languages to learn, so doesn't that mean English is one of the hardest for the Finns?

This is one of the great YT channels of all time because this guy worked so hard to learn English and does pretty darn well considering he seems to have learned a lot from reading. My H1 Hummer jack I got for my Ford diesel truck has a wobbly topper on it that I can't seem to find a tool to stabilize for less than $70, but it was interesting to learn about safety, now on my search I go. Thank you.
😂your wife always makes funny noises when things pop or explode!😂🤣😂
i know what you did there :D
@@djnazgra thanks I was looking for this reply
Those screw jacks tend to fail unannounced when treads give out and there have been multiple deaths due bottle jack tipping over, so its not just the jack itself, but how well it can stay upright. Regardless what kind of jack you are using, never trust your life on it, but least put old rim under the car to prevent it from squishing you if car comes down.
Never hold a car up with a jack. Always put jack stands if your going underneath.
I will also say Always Always use some jack stands. You can get 4 of them for 80 bucks Your life is worth more than 80 bucks and 30 seconds to put them under the vehicle.
Never use concrete blocks to hold up a car. They can fail suddenly some time after you've put the car on them (and you're underneath).
Wooden blocks will fail right away, or not at all.
If I'm not going to do anything with the tires or wheels, I just drive up on ramps. I've seen cars fall on jack stands also.
"It's like a jackstand for your internet" xD
Should do harbor freight jack stands in the next video 😂
Thanks for this consumer test.
I never knew the actual safety margins. This was very informative.
This was a great testing video. A+

i think i was shocked by the bottle jack and safety stand. what you learn on the internet though
My theory: the safety valve in a bottle jack kicks in when you pump it, so if the vehicle is too heavy, you can't lift it in the first place. After it's lifted, in case something happens to increase the weight, the relief valve is no longer active; that jack will hold it up until the metal fails because there's no point in lowering a truck on your head to prevent it from being dropped.
Don't care what brand your roller Jack always be safe people! Jack to lift and stand to keep vehicle safely in position.
Piece of plywood for footing too
You forgot one type of jack - Jack Daniels! :D
You ever try Mitchers? You'll never touch jack again unless you become poor from drinking too much mitchers.
If you helped Jack on the horse. Would you help Jack off the horse?

Hahaha the best comment!!
But how much weight can Jack Black hold up?
The pins are always supposed to shear first. All jack stands are designed this way.
Kwikws6
Why?
@@skippygirl959 In this particular instance, it would give you advance warning to get the hell outta there before it all comes down-
@@skippygirl959 Gives the user a moment to panic-dodge out from under the falling weight, causes the jack stand to collapse into itself (which has a higher minimum height than bending it or tipping it over), and permits repair of the jack stand by replacing the pin.
Tl;dr: Car doesn't fall as far, as fast, and (probably) doesn't smash the jack stand into a busted POS if the pin is the point of failure.
4:52 the bottle jack was like "bitch you ain't got nothing" and the press was like "hold my beer" *POP BANG*
VPN is like a jack stand for your internet - LOL that deserves a like right there
The scissor jack is rated higher when it is fully extended
Yeah - but youv've got to go through the whole throw of the jack to get to fully extended...
Not to mention it did hold double what it's rated for.
True, but it's more unstable when fully extended.
True, but i busted the motherload in the evening and resulted in "crusty boxers" in the morning aftermath

New clickbait title "crushing hydraulic press with a hydraulic press"
I love the way he pronounces hydraulics.
who draw licks?
Cool video! Keep in mind that the pressure the press created directly on to the jacks is not the same pressure your car will create. If your car weighs 2 tons and you are using a 2 ton jack, the jack is not lifting 2 tons, it's lifting a percentage of the 2 tons as you aren't lifting the entire car (all 4 wheels) off the ground all at once with the one jack.
I’ve Always Had that feeling of distrust when being under a car using a car jack
Yea, I always use jack stands after car jack gets the car high enough.
You aren't alone
I get warm and fuzzy when I hear 'escape-ped'

The bottle jack sneezed.
7:26 "safety pin will not break"
Safety pin: **are you sure about that**
Like a jack stand for your internet...
Dude that's priceless.
The bottle jack failed because the cylinder does not have a pressure relief valve. It is instead design so that the pump has a pressure relief valve. If the pump is at maximum pressure, the relief valve in the pump will stop the fluid for going to the cylinder. It will get pumped back to the reservoir instead.
Those scissor jack's are LETHAL, yours failed in a different way to mine. I was Extremely lucky.
The part that the thread goes through completely stripped out and it slammed to the floor.. what happens with those scissor jack's over time is the repeat force on the threads from winding them up starts to wear them out and all of a sudden they give way. Some even come with PLASTIC thread housings.. they're not for repeat use. Deadly things.
Yeah they're really supposed to be emergency roadside use only, if they get any sort of regular repeated use as well I wouldn't trust them not to fail.
@@lemagreengreen yeah, never go under a car that's on a scissor jack. Literally shaking the grim reapers hand lol
Yeah, I was very surprised when the frame failed before the threads.
@Lassi Kinnunen yeah I suppose they're fine if you're not under the car and just changing tyres. But even if you buy a used car with a spare wheel kit nobody knows how much it's been used. You could use it for the 50th time! They're not very safe in my opinion
They are perfectly safe. It failed at over 4t and it's not rated to lift anywhere near that.
Hell yeah pressing carjacks now that's what I'm talking about!
Press those black steel car ramps from harbor freight!!
Blue jack was like: sorry pal, I'm out quickly need to pee 😆😆
i kept replaying it when it flew away lmao
Always slide the tyre not on the vehicle under the vehicle in case the jack fails.
Yes man I never see people do that. My dad taught me that when I was young as hell. I thought everyone was supposed to know that
I always do that, it's better a broken wheel than a broken 💀
@@theduiguy794 yeah same, my old man taught me that when he showed me how to change a tyre years ago, but I've had to tell that to a surprising number of people...
Thanks...good tip.
Yep. Always do that when im on the road or changing a tyre if i dont have a stand around. As soon as the tyre comes off straight under the sill panel.
So in a competition of jacks, a jack stand won. Can you show me how you lifted your vehicle with a jack stand
The point of this is that you use the jack to only lift, and jack stands are the safest to use after lifting the vehicle initially! As you can see, jacks are not a long term usage thing
@The foam Farmer gay
He just go in and lift the car up by hands. Ask Chuck Norris.

Youre ignoring the fact the other half of the pin sliced through the solid steel tube like butter

@@charlieinnitwtf6979 Calm down, SJW :-)
Still he thought the base would break first yet it’s made from triangles in a pyramid shape which is one of the strongest design structures. The pin was destined to break first.
I like how Annies clay figures are getting more elaborate.
It's good to know that the safety margins are still decent even on the crappy one. I bought two 20 ton bottle jacks to lift my parent's shed so I can put blocks under it, would be curious how those would fair out. :D I could probably make a small hydraulic press with them if I wanted to. They are decently inexpensive for the amount of force they can produce.
if you need 20 ton jacks for a shed im curious did they fill it with lead? lol
20 tons of lead is the same as 20 tons of anythinf
Have no idea how heavy the shed is (can't imagine it's more than a few tons) but the 20 ton jack was only a bit more expensive than the 5 ton, so why not. :D Having two just made the job easier as I could "walk" it up using 2x4's to alternate jacks.
@@redsquirrelftw lol , alright makes sense then, besides jacks always come in handy & rather be good for 10ton over what you need than 1 under, i just figured if its heavy enough to need two 20 ton jacks they filled that shed with something pretty dense... that or its not really a shed, anyways thanks for the confirmation & the laugh.
@@redsquirrelftw It's ALWAYS VERY BAD to not have the required capacity, even it that's only 0.001% under what is actually needed.
There is no problem being grossly over capacity. It just increase your safety margin, and having a good safety margin is always a good thing.
I love the way she laughs in every video!
Now I know what jacks to use for my tank. Thank you.
Please crush cheap vs expensive anvil with hydraulic press on the next video.
Cast iron in such amount would be too strong and could brake the press
brake as in stop or break as in damage?

Thanks.. I now know which Jack to use when changing the tyre on my 12 Ton Army Tank.
The hydraulic jack buckled as the pump pressure limit is on pump side, ie no overload protection once filled with oil
I was surprised when you said the pin wouldn't be the point where it starts to fail, my reasoning was that the pipe was the thinnest part of the whole stand/jack.
This is very interesting. I always assumed that these lifting devices had a safety margin of 3:1, not 2:1. So this is a real eye opener, especially for me; I’m a military mechanic. The tools that we use are much much heavier than these though, which is good because we trust our lives to the equipment we use to lift vehicles and their components quite often.
Thanks for keeping us safe!
You sir have the best accent I’ve ever heard!
I love the clearly visible safety margins with these tools. They all hold the rated weight, and hold the over capacity weight until failure. At least you have time to get out from under it as its failing, rather than it failing spontaneously.
Thank you for confirming the knowledge I learned work for a Carnival
Bottle jack is 6 tons compared to 2 ton scissor jack, and 2 ton floor jack. So divide that by 3 and you'll still get around 4.5 tons per 2 ton jack. About the same. The specifications for quality control out the door is 4 tons for 2 ton jack.

Patrick Erwin hahaha..I hope jack stan still alive
The vpn ads with the press crushing Hackers and stuff had me laughing. It was a great tiny idea!
The hydrolic pressure relief valve only bypasses fluid at the pump. How much ever fluid that was previously pumped into the cylinder before crushing it cannot go anywhere the only option it has is to blow out the cylinder and piston seals or manually bled off using the handle to let the jack down. Really impressive that the seals held on that little cylinder.
You un-circumcised the bottle Jack
Hedrawl press is straight selling out. Good for them.
that last one was funny when it slid out from under the press 😂😂😂😂😂

This is.... strangely satisfying!!! Love watching stuff explode.
Scissor check, floor check, potol check and then...... Check stand! :)
Quick thing on the safety valve: That valve is meant to protect the tool from a dumb operator lifting something too heavy, NOT to protect the tool while the dumb operator underneath the car get crushed by the load coming down :)
