TEMCo Hydraulic Container/Machine Toe Jack (2.5 Ton - 5 Ton) Lift Capacity TH0025

The toe jack operates extremely smoothly and has great manors while lowering the load. Its very easy to control the speed of descent of the load. That is very important to safe load handling. The build quality is really good.

I used (and will continue to use on an as-needed basis) this toe jack to lift and aid in the relocation of a metal turning lathe. It works very well, and feels reassuringly sturdy as it supports the weight. I mean, I still wouldn't stick my fingers underneath whatever I am lifting, but you do you. The swiveling pump handle receptacle is a VERY nice feature, as heavy objects of this sort are often placed against/near walls, other machinery, etc..., and having the option to orient the handle into an area where there is space for it to be swung/cycled is absolutely appreciated. As with most (all?) bottle-type jacks, the release can be touchy when lowering a load, but this jack does provide as sensitive of a release as I have experienced. With some patience, a fairly finite level of control can be achieved when setting down whatever heavy object you've managed to lift. Great solution for "just how the heck am I supposed to lift THAT??" situations, especially if used in conjunction with other lifting devices (use this jack to create enough clearance underneath the object to get another jack/lifting strap/whatever underneath it).

It's refreshing that you can still buy quality made products from local companies. I'm not sure if these jacks are American made, but the quality and durability can't be beat. TEMCo really stands behind the jack, with a 5 year warranty. What other company tells you to use their product with the option to return it for any reason within a full year for a refund! I'll be honest -- I don't usually need a toe jack, but I did for a single project, so I ordered this. The thought of returning it crossed my mind, but once it arrived and I saw the quality in not only the jack, but even the UPS proof packaging, I decided it was more than just a purchase - it was an investment. It's one of those things that when you need it, you're glad you have it.

I have a 10 x16 shed with a 2nd floor loft. Fully loaded with all our stuff. The one front corner settled a bit causing the doors to be unlevel. This jack was perfect. Lifted the corner high enough to put some more rock under that corner and now the shed is level again. Highly recommend. I contemplated buying cheaper options off a bidding site but after talking to people and reviews found those to be not good quality. Temco has a great reputation and a 5 year warranty. Unit is solid and built like a tank. It comes packaged extremely well.

Works great. This is one of the better toe jacks I’ve ever used.

worked great to lift the foundation joists of my house. it is super heavy, but i guess it needs to be.

Saved my life! Excellent product!!!

I've needed to change the location of the leveling feet on my Southbend for 4 years. There effort to do so was more than it was worth. 10 minutes with the jack and it was done. No questionable lifting. Easy as eating pie.I've been meaning to get my Bridgeport off its moving skids for longer. No easy way to do it until this arrived. 15 minutes later it is on its leveling feet.The unit is heavy duty. Well built. There handle is a single piece, none of this contect 3 tubes together to make a wobbly lever. Solid feel. The wall thickness of the lever is better than most jacks I've seen so the cuts for opening and closing the valve are sturdy.Every thing about this is quality. I just wish I had invested in it earlier.Oh, they had it in the shippers hands the same day I placed the order. Great customer service.
