BendPak 9APF Open-Top Two-Post Lift for Low Ceilings - 9,000 lb Capacity
Perfect for low ceilings, tall vehicles, and busy work floors
Shops with low ceilings do not have time to fight an overhead beam. The 9APF removes it. Short columns let you install where other two-posts will not fit, yet the open-top layout gives taller vehicles real headroom.
Extra-low floorplate that works with you
The 9APF uses an extra-low steel cover plate that minimizes step-over height so techs and equipment do not snag. Hydraulic and equalizer lines are fully contained inside the plate for a tidy install and fewer trip points.
AP-Series arm engineering for real-world vehicles
The 9APF brings AP-Series swing arms built for modern chassis variation. Triple-telescoping, low-profile arms reach deep when you need the distance, then retract to keep the arms compact in smaller bays.
Safety you can feel, not babysit
The 9APF integrates BendPak's automatic swing arm restraints (ASARS) that lock as the arms load, with full-circle engagement so push-pull forces do not walk the arms out of position.
Built for busy shops
Large base plates distribute loads into the slab for a confident footprint. Column sections are robust and resist twist under side loads, and oversized sheaves and quality cables reduce fatigue over time.
