Hein-Werner HW93506 Blue/Yellow Jack Stands, 6 Ton Capacity (Set of 2)

Yeah I mispronounced Hein-Werner. The base is Large about 12 x 10 inches and its tall about 16 inches. I have yet to use them but I wanted to get something that felt strong and well made. The welds around the neck are continuous. The two halves of the base have a seam weld from the inside from the arrow arch between the halves apex to the neck line, solid continuous. The feet have small plates welded to the corners its kinda thick doesn't feel like it would break off if forced. The corners are bent but more like a pipe not like a metal box.. continuous. In the video you should see how thick the metal plating of the neck and the base are. I've put it through no structural test, but they just feel substantial, like they could take a lot force. The paint is heavy duty its got to be enamel, it won't rub off.. could probably take a lot of scraping.. maybe a chisel to chip it off. It has a shiney glaze look to the surface. If it help any for scale I wear a size 8. I don't think I did a good job conveying the scale of how big these are. In all of the pictures online they look kinda small. These start at 16 inches tall, so you probably only want to use them with a truck or where you need a lot of clearance. No way they would fit in a toolbox.

I purchased 4 of these 6-ton Jack Stands to install an AEV lift kit on my Jeep Rubicon. I didn't buy them for their 6-Ton load carrying capacity (although that's a huge benefit) I really bought them because they extend 25-3/4 inches in length which is further than any other Jack Stand I looked at. Before I purchased the Hein Werener Jack Stands I looked around to see what local stores carried and all I can say is that what they carry doesn't appear to be the same species. The metal is much thinner than the Hein Werner and the construction appears to be flimsy. Once you see your average 6-Ton Jack Stand next to a Hein Werner you just feel like your puting yourself at risk if you buy anything else. They worked perfectly for my project and as it turned out I needed every inch of lift for my 35" tires to clear the ground at full flex. I can't say enough about how secure I felt working under my Jeep every time I glanced over at these Jack Stands. I will no doubt have these for the rest of my life and then leave them to my son who will have them for the rest of his life and so on.

These jack stands are rock solid and feel really sturdy. The wide base gives me peace of mind when working under my car, and the quality is definitely worth the price. I’d highly recommend them for anyone needing reliable support in their garage!

The jack stands themselves are great, I have an SUV and they easily raised high enough while remaining stable. I am confident in being able to risk life and limb underneath my vehicle while employing these jack stands to hold the weight of the vehicle. The shipping of the product is questionable and the package I received seem to have been kicked and thrown around with rips and tears in the box. Had it been something other than jack stands, I would of never accepted shipment. At most, the damage they incurred was scratches in the paint. I would definitely recommend these stands. When it comes to safety, don't skimp by getting a cheap set of jack stands. These will last your lifetime and your kids. These stands are also made in the USA and of high quality. You might save $50 with a cheap set of stands, but spend more on ambulance costs when someone calls 911 to lift a car off you. Hope this helps.

I struggled trying to find details on the width of the saddle on these (or any Jack Stand). The saddle is 4-3/8" inside the ears. I have a 5th gen Toyota 4Runner and the frame fits within the ears almost perfectly. The saddle is also 1-3/8" wide. I haven't used them yet, just held the support against the frame to check if they would work for me. They are incredibly beefy. My only gripe is that for how much they cost, there is no double locking feature like the metal block that slides in to lock the jack. Guess they figure it's not needed. Also unsure of which parts are actually US made. Here are some pics compared to another set of 6 ton jack stands I got from Northern Tool. Those are pretty nice but the saddle doesn't let me support my frame properly. It's pretty hard to find jack stands with wide saddles. These were a little less than the ones from US Jack but still expensive. Edit - Still haven't used these Jack Stands but fir a Premium Price, I expect a premium product. The flats on the saddle are not flat. They look like an 8 year old took a grinder to the flats to get rid of the mold seam but decided not to finish the job or make sure they are actually close to flat. There is a ridge on each Jack stand that will contact the frame (see added pics). I don't think it is my responsibility to grind them flat so I will be returning them.

I am a Hein-Werner fan. Yes, these are very expensive, but you should never compromise your life for money. I can not give less than 5 stars when it comes to my life. You will hand these down. They will last longer than you. American made Quality all the way.
