Product Overview
BendPak 10APX-181 Pro Series High-Rise Ex-Tall ALI 2 Post Lift Package
Built for the Modern Shop: EVs, Tall Cargo Vans & Heavy Vehicles
The BendPak 10APX-181 PRO Series is the ultimate solution for shops tackling the evolving demands of today's automotive landscape. Designed to handle high-roof cargo vans, electric vehicles, and larger commercial trucks, this lift features a towering 181" overhead beam height one of the tallest in the industry—delivering exceptional clearance for even the most challenging vehicles.
With a robust 10,000-lb. lifting capacity, ALI certification, and a maximum rise of 75.5" (1,918 mm), this lift is engineered for serious work. The exclusive Low-Pro™ arms with dropped-end pad receivers and Bi-Metric™ arm design provide unmatched flexibility for both symmetric and asymmetric lifting. Whether you're servicing heavy-duty EVs with reinforced battery chassis or lowered performance vehicles, the 10APX-181 PRO delivers the versatility, strength, and safety modern technicians demand.
This complete package includes the WSA-100 Work Station Package with four 110V GFI outlets, air service with regulator/filter and oiler, plus a full set of frame cradle pads, medium (2.5") and tall (5") adapters, and an adapter holder for convenient storage.
Empowering the Future of EV Service
Say goodbye to cramped workspaces and uncomfortable service positions. The BendPak 10APX-181 PRO Series delivers a premium, ergonomic lifting experience engineered for the future of automotive service. As the industry shifts toward electric, hybrid, and solar-powered vehicles, heavier chassis configurations—packed with additional batteries, reinforced frameworks, upgraded suspension, and protective armor—demand stronger, smarter equipment.
BendPak's PRO Series was specifically engineered to meet these new challenges head-on. Using high tensile-strength steels for all critical load-bearing components, this lift ensures maximum durability and safety even under the most demanding workloads. The added weight and complexity of EVs stress lift components—especially in two-post lifts—but the 10APX-181 PRO is built to handle it with ease.
The oversized 59" tall carriages provide superior strength and stability, while dual hydraulic direct-drive cylinders deliver smooth, synchronized lifting in approximately 45 seconds to full rise. With noise levels below 70 dB, technicians can work comfortably and efficiently without distraction. This lift combines simplicity with smart design, ensuring minimal maintenance costs and maximum productivity.
Flexible Installation: Wide or Narrow Configuration
The PRO Series offers the versatility of both wide and narrow installation configurations in a single, fully customizable package. Choose from a 135" or 145" overall width, with corresponding inside column clearances of 108.5" or 118.5", and drive-thru clearances of 97.5" or 107.5". This flexibility ensures you can adapt the lift to your shop's specific layout, maximizing workspace efficiency and vehicle accommodation.
The expandable top beam adjusts to accommodate wide or narrow drive-thru needs, while the ultra-wide column spacing provides superior under-car access for technicians working on trucks, vans, SUVs, and sports cars alike. The Bi-Metric™ arms effortlessly handle both symmetric and asymmetric lifting with precision, making vehicle positioning fast and intuitive.
Automatic Swing Arm Restraint System (ASARS)
The revolutionary Automatic Swing Arm Restraint System (ASARS) is a game-changer for lift safety and stability. This patented system, constructed with heavily forged steel, locks lift arms securely in place with an impressive load-holding force of over 2,000 pounds. The result is unmatched stability, preventing unintended swing-arm movement during lifting and vehicle service operations.
Featuring a full 360-degree load-holding grip, the patented forged-steel design delivers superior holding force with precision non-shifting action. The quick-release operator lever allows for instant clamping release when you need to reposition arms. This adaptive system requires minimal operator involvement, providing unmatched security when lifting full-sized trucks, SUVs, or heavy electric vehicles onto the lift.
Revolutionary Triple-Telescoping Nested Swing Arms
The 10APX-181 PRO features revolutionary and patented triple-telescoping swing arms specifically tailored for varying vehicle lifting points. Unlike traditional two-post lift arms, 10AP series arms retract shorter and extend farther, offering lift operators a multitude of arm positioning options—it's like having the best of all worlds in one lift.
The innovative three-stage arms achieve more telescoping movement due to their patented nesting feature that results in greater retraction and farther reach. The front arms reach a maximum of 50" (1,270 mm) and retract to a minimum of 24.5" (622 mm), while the rear arms extend to 59.25" (1,505 mm) and retract to 32" (813 mm). Inner sliding arm movement is no longer impeded by arm end plates, tube closeouts, or even the arm pivot pin itself—the inner tubes retract fully through the back of the arm assembly and even beyond the arm pin, resulting in unmatched retraction and extension.
This design is perfect for accommodating a wide variety of vehicle sizes and lift point configurations, from compact cars to extended-wheelbase cargo vans. Each arm supports a maximum load of 2,500 lbs. (1,134 kg), ensuring balanced, secure lifting across all four contact points.
Low-Pro™ Swing Arms: Access the Inaccessible
BendPak's exclusive Low-Pro™ swing arms feature telescoping channels with a shorter profile and a dropped-end pad receiver, resulting in better serviceability on lowered chassis-height vehicles. They access hard-to-reach lift points with less hindrance, providing increased versatility and less chance of damage to vehicle side skirts, running boards, or ground effects.
With a minimum pad height of just 4" (102 mm), these arms are engineered for modern low-profile performance vehicles and EVs with complex undercarriage designs. The double-telescoping screw pads offer 2" (51 mm) of vertical adjustment, while varying height stackable adapters (included: medium 2.5" and tall 5" ) provide greater vertical pad placement for precise and safe vehicle support. The frame cradle pads (set of 4 with 60mm pin) ensure stable, secure contact with the vehicle's designated lift points.
Comprehensive Safety Features
Safety is at the heart of every BendPak design. The 10APX-181 PRO is equipped with a comprehensive suite of safety features that protect both the operator and the vehicle. A padded overhead safety shutoff bar prevents over-travel, while dual hydraulic direct-drive cylinders ensure smooth, synchronized lifting action.
The lift features safety locks in each column spaced every 3", providing secure holding positions at multiple heights throughout the lift range. The single-point safety release simplifies operation, allowing the technician to disengage all locks from one convenient location. This design enhances workflow efficiency and reduces operator fatigue during busy service days.
The system is powered by an electric/hydraulic HVLP power system driven by a 220 VAC / 60 Hz / 1-Phase motor. A 3/8" (10 mm) high-strength multi-strand galvanized steel equalizing cable synchronizes the columns for perfectly balanced lifting, while oversized cable sheave diameters reduce cable fatigue and extend service life.
The self-lubricating Dura-Glide UHMW polyethylene bearing system ensures smooth, quiet operation with minimal friction and wear over time. The durable powder coat finish protects against corrosion and shop chemicals, maintaining a professional appearance and long service life even in demanding environments.
WSA-100 Work Station Package Included
This complete lift package includes the WSA-100 Work Station, a premium accessory that transforms your lift into a fully integrated service station. The work station is easy to install and adapts to any two-post or four-post lift, providing convenient access to power and air service right where you need it.
