Red star 12 tonne heavy-duty axle stands pair
These axle stands are proper, no-nonsense kit for when maintenance or repairs are on the cards. If you’re going to be faffing about under a car, having stout, dependable stands takes a lot of the worry out of it. The RED STAR pair are rated at 12 tonne and come as a set, so they’re ideal for heavier cars, small vans and workshop jobs where extra support is needed.
solid, no-nonsense support
Built from heavy‑duty steel with a protective finish, these stands shrug off everyday knocks, oil and grime. The adjustable height and positive locking catch make them simple to set up and secure — that stability is worth its weight in gold when you’re working on brakes, suspension or the exhaust, especially in cold, slippery weather.
when and how you might use them
- If you need to lift an axle for brake pad changes or suspension work, use a suitable jack first, then lower the vehicle onto these stands for stable support.
- Perfect for a home garage or a small workshop — they suit heavier cars and small vans, but always check your vehicle’s weight and lifting points before you start.
- Don’t rely on a single jack to hold a vehicle up. Use a pair of stands, place them under solid support points and lower the vehicle onto them carefully.
