Wheel lifts up to 1,000 kg – For heavy commercial vehicles & buses
Wheel lifts with up to 1,000 kg load capacity are designed for handling heavy commercial vehicle wheels. Truck single and double wheels, heavy bus wheels and special vehicles are handled safely and ergonomically with these machines.
What distinguishes this class:
- For truck single & double wheels: Truck wheels can weigh 80 to 120 kg and more – wheel lifts of this class safely lift these loads too.
- Precisely positionable: Swivel castors and hydraulic height adjustment enable exact positioning of the wheel at the rim.
- For professional truck workshops: Robust build quality for continuous use in commercial vehicle and bus workshops.

Wheel Lifts up to 1,000 kg: Technology for Truck Workshops
In the truck and commercial vehicle sector, a wheel lift is not an optional aid but a safety-technical necessity. Wheels of this size class can weigh 80 to 150 kg – lifting and positioning them manually is not only physically extremely demanding but also a considerable safety risk for workshop staff.
What features are important for wheel lifts up to 1,000 kg?
Important: sufficient lifting height for the axle height of the respective vehicle, a wide and stable support surface for truck wheels with their often unusual dimensions, and precise stepless height adjustment. Swivel castors with parking brake enable exact positioning of the wheel at the hub. Many models also offer a tilting wheel cradle for demounting twin tyres.
Hydraulic or electro-hydraulic?
Hydraulic hand pump wheel lifts are reliable and low-maintenance. Electro-hydraulic models enable lifting at the press of a button – particularly more comfortable for very heavy use. For occasional use, a hydraulic model is perfectly sufficient; for intensive continuous use, the extra cost of an electro-hydraulic machine is worth it.
