<p>The BendPak 12APF is a 12,000 lb two-post floorplate lift built for low ceilings, commercial vehicles, and high-roof service applications. Its open-top design eliminates overhead obstructions, while a steel floorplate protects all hydraulic and equalizer lines for a clean and safe workspace. The exclusive Bi-Metric arm design offers superior versatility, letting techs spot vehicles in symmetric or asymmetric configurations instantly. With drop-end arms, stacked adapter options, and a fully automatic swing arm restraint system, the 12APF is ideal for professional repair shops, fleet service centers, tire facilities, and dealerships looking to expand their heavy-duty capability.</p>
<p><strong>Built for strength, safety, and simplicity<br></strong>The BendPak 12APF was engineered for shops that need true heavy-duty lifting power in spaces where overhead lifts simply won’t fit. With shortened columns and no overhead beam, the lift performs exceptionally well in low-ceiling repair bays and older buildings with height limitations.</p>
<p><strong>Better access under tall vehicles<br></strong>The open-top architecture delivers clean vertical clearance, making it a go-to solution for commercial vans, lifted trucks, and large SUVs. Techs can work upright and maneuver around the vehicle without fighting overhead obstructions.</p>
<p><strong>Concealed routing for a cleaner workspace<br></strong>A durable steel floorplate houses all hydraulic and equalizer lines. The result is a safer, cleaner shop with smoother movement of jacks, drain pans, and equipment across the bay.</p>
<p><strong>Exclusive Bi-Metric arm design<br></strong>The 12APF includes BendPak's exclusive Bi-Metric arm system, allowing fast and flexible arm positioning. Techs can choose symmetric spotting for balance or asymmetric spotting for better door and cabin access.</p>
<p><span><strong>Drop-end arms and included adapters<br></strong></span>Drop-end arms create a lower pad height for easy positioning under low cars. Frame cradle pads, medium adapters, and tall adapters come standard to accommodate trucks, vans, and wider frame variations.</p>
<p><span><strong>Advanced ASARS safety system<br></strong></span>BendPak's Automatic Swing Arm Restraint System provides a full 360-degree grip around the arm head. With over 2,000 pounds of holding force and a forged-steel construction, the ASARS system is engineered to lock arms firmly under real service loads, including braking, suspension work, and directional torque.</p>
<p><span><strong>Built for long-term commercial use<br></strong></span>Single-piece columns, dual 3/8 inch equalizer cables, oversized sheaves, and self-lubricating bearings keep the lift operating smoothly even in high-volume shops. Fifteen lock positions spaced every four inches give techs precise height control.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline; font-size: 18px;"><strong>Who The 12APF is for:</strong></span></p>

<li>Restoration, performance, and custom shops that work on lowered cars in the morning and heavy-duty trucks in the afternoon. With dropped pad receivers and high capacity, one lift handles them all.</li>
<li>Dealership quick-service lanes, tire bays, and service centers juggling diverse vehicles from lowered performance cars to heavy SUVs and light trucks.</li>
<li>Growing operations converting storage bays or tight garages into full-featured service bays. Short columns and open-top design make efficient use of space while supporting heavier vehicle loads.</li><br>
