PL Series 2000lb 24 x 36 platform
PL48 – A mechanical post lift table with a 2,000 lb load capacity, a 24″ × 36″ platform, and hand-crank operation—ideal for precise, power-free lifting and positioning in compact or mobile work environments.
Product Description
If you're looking for a reliable lifting solution without relying on power, the PL48 Mechanical Post Lift Table offers robust performance, precision control, and rugged durability. This mechanical lift table is ideal for workstations, maintenance areas, machine shops, and mobile setups where you need strong, steady positioning without hydraulics or electricity.
With a 2,000 lb (≈ 907 kg) capacity, the PL48 tackles heavy loads—large toolings, fixtures, parts bins, and assemblies—with confidence. Its 24″ × 36″ platform provides a stable footprint capable of supporting varied load shapes while maintaining a compact profile for maneuvering through aisles or tight spaces.
Lifting is driven manually via a hand-crank system connected to four self-locking acme screw posts. This purely mechanical design ensures precise control and prevents drift—even at full extension. The crank offers dual-speed operation: a faster mode to quickly raise the load and a finer mode to make subtle adjustments during alignment.
Portability is built in. The PL48 rolls on two fixed and two swivel phenolic casters, allowing you to move it easily to where it's needed. A foot-operated floor lock secures the unit in place during lifting, ensuring safe, stable positioning when loading or offloading heavy parts.
Constructed from heavy-duty welded steel, the PL48 features guide posts to keep the platform aligned and upright through the full range of motion, minimizing side play. The mechanical nature of the design means no motors, no hydraulics, and no batteries—eliminating maintenance concerns and complications common to powered lifts.
Whether you're staging tooling, adjusting machine setups, or positioning heavy parts at benches or test stations, the PL48 Mechanical Post Lift Table delivers dependable, precise, and maintenance-free lifting—even in tight or mobile work environments.
