Limitations of Pneumatic Jacks in Heavy Truck & Bus Maintenance

 Most car garages rely on pneumatic jacks because they work fast, require little strength, and are simple to handle air pressure inside them makes lifting quick and smooth. In smaller repair jobs, speed matters most so compressed tools fit well when doing similar tasks again and again. Yet applying these same tools to big buses or large trucks shows clear drawbacks over time. Heavy vehicles need stronger solutions since standard jacks meant for cars often strain under thicker metal loads. That difference becomes hard to ignore once weight grows beyond what standard gear can handle.

Grasping these limits matters when picking gear, boosting safety, and keeping things running under tough conditions. READ MORE
