A lab jack is an adjustable, stable platform used in laboratories to raise or lower equipment with precision. Also known as a scissor jack or scissor lift, it works using a crisscrossing "scissor" mechanism operated by a screw.

How a lab jack works:

  • A manual lab jack features a knob that controls a central threaded screw.
  • When the screw is turned, it pushes the scissor-like arms closer together or farther apart.
  • This action causes the top platform of the jack to move vertically, providing smooth and controlled height adjustment.

 Lab jacks are essential for a wide range of tasks that require controlled positioning of apparatus. 

  • Heating and distillation: A lab jack can support a heating mantle or hot plate, allowing a user to quickly remove the heat source from a reaction vessel to prevent overheating.
  • Supporting glassware: It provides a stable surface for beakers, flasks, and water baths, preventing spills and breakage during experiments.
  • Precision positioning: In microscopy and optical experiments, lab jacks are used to make fine, controlled adjustments to the height and angle of samples or mirrors.
  • Industrial applications: In engineering labs and workshops, lab jacks can be used to hold or fixture materials at an exact height for cutting, welding, and assembly. 

Specifications:

  • Dimension: 150mm x 150mm
  • Expandable Lift Height Range from 75mm to 260mm
