Sealey AS6O axle stands (pair) – 6 tonne per stand, orange
These Sealey AS6O axle stands are the sort of kit that makes a garage feel properly sorted. Heavy-duty, easy to spot in bright orange and built to hold a load securely while you crack on with the job. If leaving a car on stands gives you the heebie-jeebies, these take a lot of the worry out of it – solid welded construction, captive pins and a wide crutch head that spreads the weight where it should be.
Key features
- Sturdy welded steel frame for reliable strength and long service life – no flimsy bits here.
- Rated 6 tonne per stand (12 tonne per pair), so suitable for many cars, vans and light commercial tasks.
- Adjustable working height from 369mm to 571mm, handy whether you’re doing brakes, suspension or exhaust work.
- Captive multi-position pin load support locks into place to prevent accidental drop – straightforward and safe to use.
- Large crutch head gives good load distribution, reducing pressure points under axle or chassis.
- Sold as a pair and finished in high-visibility orange so they’re easy to find in a cluttered workshop.
Technical details and practical notes
Item weight is around 10 kg for the pair and the stands pack down compactly for storage. The AS6O model carries the manufacturer part number AS6O and OEM part Sealey-6T if you like to cross-check. They’re ideal for any situation where a vehicle must be supported for an extended period – servicing, MOT prep, or when a stubborn wheel won’t come off and you need the vehicle steadied.
Couple of practical points: always confirm the vehicle’s weight and where the load sits before relying on any stand; these are rated per stand so use them in matched pairs and only on level, solid ground. If the height range looks a bit tall or short for a particular job, double-check the vehicle’s jacking points and the stand placement. That attention to detail is a real bonus in winter when surfaces can be less forgiving.
Why choose these stands?
- Confidence – robust welded construction and captive pins mean less faffing about and more secure working.
- Versatility – the wide height range covers most common jobs.
- Visibility – the bright orange finish helps keep the workshop safe and organised.
These axle stands are straightforward, no-nonsense kit that do the job well. If you’re not sure about vehicle compatibility or the correct jacking points, have a quick look in the vehicle handbook or get some expert advice before you start. For most DIYers and professional users alike, the Sealey AS6O pair is a dependable, heavy-duty choice that makes maintenance safer and easier.
