Silverline axle stand set 2pc 3 tonne (763620)
These axle stands do the simple, essential job of keeping a vehicle safely supported while you work underneath. Designed with the home mechanic and small workshop in mind, the Silverline 763620 pair are tough, no-nonsense stands that give you confidence when the car’s up in the air.
Built for strength and stability
Each stand has a heavy-duty cast iron support post and a hardened steel base plate with broad feet to spread the load. That combo means they sit firm on the floor and resist rocking or sinking — exactly what you want when you’re under the car. They’re solid as a rock and won’t faff about when you start wriggling underneath.
- Safe working load: 3 tonne per stand (use two for a total safe support of 6 tonne)
- Height range: 285–420 mm via quick ratchet adjustment — simple and fast to set
- Curved U-shaped saddle: gives a secure seat for axles and helps reduce slippage
- Compatible with trolley jacks: lift with a jack, then transfer support to the stands
Practical details and common uses
These stands suit most cars and small-to-medium vans. Whether you’re changing discs, sorting exhausts, swapping suspension bushes or getting at the undertray, they make the job far less of a faff. The ratchet-and-pawl adjustment is dead easy to use and beats fiddly pins — handy on a chilly morning in the garage.
- Jaw capacity: 70 mm — plenty of clearance for typical axle shapes and hubs
- Handle diameter: 14 mm — works with common jack handles and levers
- Product weight: ~6.5–7 kg per stand — gives a reassuring, durable feel
Safety and tips
These stands are for supporting the vehicle after it has been lifted with a suitable jack. Always use stands in matched pairs on a level, solid surface and never rely on a jack alone. Check the stands for damage before each use and position them under the manufacturer-recommended lift points. If you’re unsure about load limits or support points, have a quick look at the vehicle handbook — better safe than sorry.
If you’re worried they might be awkward to set up, don’t be: position, rack the ratchet to the right height, then lower the car onto the saddle. No daft assembly and they pack away neatly between jobs.
