BIG RED 3 Ton Steel Jack Stands (Pair) - Red, Ratchet & Double-Lock Safety, 11.3"–16.9"

BIG RED Torin 3 Ton Steel Heavy Duty Jack Stands (pair) are steel, ratchet-style supports rated to hold up to 6,000 lb total and secure vehicles after lifting with a jack.

These two red 3-ton jack stands from BIG RED are built for workshop and home-garage use where dependable, long-lasting support is needed. Fabricated from solid steel panels with welded reinforcement braces and a wide pyramid base, they combine a large saddle area with a multi-position ratchet bar and double-locking pins to increase stability and safety while you work beneath a vehicle.

How much weight and what height range do these jack stands support?

Each stand is rated for 3 tons (6,000 lb per pair total) and provides a practical working height range for many smaller vehicles. The ratchet bar adjusts quickly between the minimum and maximum heights so you can fine-tune support height for the job.

• Rated capacity: 3 tons per stand (pair supports up to 6,000 lb)
• Working height range: 11-5/16" (minimum) to 16-7/8" (maximum)
• Saddle design: large contact area for improved load distribution

What safety features keep the vehicle secure while I work underneath?

BIG RED designed these stands with two layers of security: a sawtooth ratchet bar for fast, positive height locking and double locking movable pins as a secondary fail-safe. A broad foot base and welded reinforcements add stability on flat, solid surfaces.

• Multi-position ratchet with sawtooth steps for secure, quick adjustments
• Double locking pins for extra retention beyond the ratchet latch
• Wide pyramid foot (7.95" x 7.2") for better load stability
• Welded-in braces and forged-steel construction to resist flex

Which vehicles and tasks are these stands best suited for?

These jack stands are intended for use with many cars and smaller SUVs that fall within the 3-ton-per-stand limit. They are not recommended for very large pickup trucks, heavy-duty commercial trucks, or oversized off-road SUVs where higher-capacity stands are required.

• Ideal for compact and mid-size cars, light crossovers, and routine maintenance
• Common uses: brake work, tire changes, suspension service, oil changes
• Not recommended for heavy-duty trucks, large pickups, or oversized SUVs

How do I use and maintain the jack stands for reliable performance?

Use a suitable hydraulic jack to lift the vehicle to the desired height, position the stands under factory lift points, and lower the vehicle onto the ratchet saddle. Inspect and clean the ratchet bar and locking pins periodically; keep the stands on a level, solid surface when in use.

• Always set stands under manufacturer-recommended lift points
• Lower vehicle slowly onto the ratchet saddle and engage the pins
• Store dry; wipe off grease and debris; inspect welds and hardware before use

Who is this for: The BIG RED Torin 3 Ton Steel Heavy Duty Jack Stands (2-pack) are a practical choice for DIY mechanics, home-garage enthusiasts, and professional technicians who work on small to medium passenger vehicles and need dependable, easy-to-adjust supports. If you regularly service compact cars or light crossovers and want durable steel stands with double-locking security and a broad base, this pair delivers reliable value. For very large trucks or heavy commercial vehicles, choose higher-capacity stands appropriate to those loads.
