What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing's capacity wording gives 3 ton (2.7 metric ton), 6,000 lb and 2721.55 kg, while the title calls it a 1 Pair. Minimum height is listed as 26.3 centimetres and maximum height as 16.34 inches, which appear inconsistent as a range. Confirm the intended capacity basis and usable height range for the selected listing before purchase. The ASME and rustproof-coating statements are manufacturer claims, not independently verified here.
