Sealey AS3 axle stands — 3 tonne each, 6 tonne per pair (white)
These Sealey AS3 axle stands are proper no-nonsense kit that lets you crack on without faffing about. Each stand will take up to 3 tonnes, so together they offer a 6 tonne safe support — more than enough for most cars, light vans and project vehicles. The heavy-gauge welded steel frame feels reassuringly solid and the large crutch tops spread the load so the vehicle sits steady.
Safety and everyday use
Changing brake pads, swapping suspension bushes or having a good look underneath? These stands are built for long spells of support, not just a quick lift-and-go. They use a captive, multi-position pin to lock the height securely, so you won’t be faffing about looking for a lost pin — it stays attached. As ever, use wheel chocks and don’t rely on the jack alone; check your vehicle’s lifting points and ensure the stands sit on a hard, level surface for peace of mind.

People sometimes ask if these will do for larger vans or heavier commercials — they’re best suited to cars and light vans. Always check the vehicle’s safe lifting points and the total load before using. Don’t exceed the rated capacity and avoid putting the stands on soft or uneven ground; a bit of paving or a solid garage floor makes all the difference. A quick tip: give them a wipe down and keep them dry between uses to prevent surface corrosion and they’ll give you years of service.
In short: reliable, straightforward and well made — the Sealey AS3 axle stands are a solid, sensible choice for anyone needing dependable support in the workshop or at home. No flashy extras, just proper support when you need it.
