XPOtool car ramp set – heavy-duty HDPE, 5 tonnes, up to 170 mm
These handy ramps give you a straightforward, reliable way to raise a car a little higher — ideal for getting over a high kerb without scuffing the tyre or creating enough clearance to work underneath. Moulded from tough HDPE, the pair provides a combined load capacity of 5 tonnes and a rise of up to 170 mm, which suits most everyday cars and many SUVs.
What they do and why they’re handy
If you’re not keen on faffing about with jacks and axle stands, ramps are a far less awkward option. Drive up slowly, let the car settle and you’ve got instant clearance for oil changes, quick inspections or to tackle stubborn kerbs. They’re brilliant for a quick lift in the driveway or garage when you don’t need full underbody support — proper time-savers for simple jobs.
Key features
- Heavy-duty HDPE construction — strong but light, so the ramps are easy to carry and built to last.
- Non-slip top surface and anti-slip base reduce movement, giving you more confidence when driving onto them.
- Tyre-friendly profile protects rubber from unnecessary scuffs when approaching kerbs or ramps at odd angles.
- Stackable design keeps things tidy in the garage and makes transportation straightforward.
- Compact footprint (approx. 91 x 30 x 22 cm for the pair) so they tuck away without hogging space.
Technical details and practical notes
Material: HDPE plastic. Load capacity (pair): 5 tonnes. Lift: up to 170 mm. Maximum tyre width: suitable for most tyre profiles up to around 265 mm. Weight for the pair: approx. 8.4 kg — light enough for one person to handle comfortably.
A few sensible tips: always make sure the ramp sits flat on solid, level ground before driving on, and approach slowly to avoid jolting the tyre. These ramps are perfect for short jobs and quick clearance, but for extended work or heavier repairs you should still use axle stands and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s safety guidance. If your vehicle is particularly heavy or modified, double-check the combined capacity first.
Typical uses
- Quick oil and filter changes at home without wrestling a jack.
- Clearing high kerbs when pulling into drives or loading and unloading.
- Raising SUVs or lowered cars a little for inspections or to fit ramps on a lift.
- Compact, portable solution for a mobile mechanic or for storage in a small garage.
All told, these ramps are a simple, no-nonsense bit of kit that saves time and removes hassle when you need a bit of extra clearance. No complicated setup, no unnecessary faff — just drive on, park up and get on with the job.
