ROTARY | SPO12 | 12K Two-Post Symmetrical Lift

The Rotary SPO12 is a robust two-post symmetrical lift designed to handle vehicles up to 12,000 lbs. Its durable construction and advanced features make it ideal for servicing larger vehicles, providing technicians with increased safety and workspace efficiency.

SPO12 Features

Air-Operated Feature

Strong Double-S Columns

 Rotary's original Double "S" columns have multiple bends to maximize strength and longevity, while its compact cross-section provides more access to the vehicle. Technicians can perform services more quickly and easily with more access to the vehicle and a less restrictive compact column cross- section to work around. Self-lubricating and maintenance-free UHMW slider blocks are long-lasting and durable.

Equipment Included

Optimal Reach Three-Stage Arms

Rotary Lift's three-stage front and rear arms provide industry-leading reach and retraction to accommodate a wide range of vehicles, from small, low-profile cars to heavy-duty trucks. The kit includes truck and stackable adapters that accurately engage the pickup points of unibody vehicles and truck frames. Round rubber adapters are optional for low-profile cars.

Additional Equipment

Fits in Standard 12'-Wide Bay 

Many competitor lifts require an extra-wide bay, but SPO12 fits in a standard 12' bay. Our design provides the drive-through clearance needed to service cars and trucks quickly and efficiently within a footprint that maximizes the number of lifts you can have in your shop, boosting profit.

Compatibility

3' Extended Height Option

 A three-foot taller lift means more clearance for tall cargo vans and a more comfortable, ergonomic, and productive servicing height for technicians. The SPO12 has the highest overall height in the industry for its capacity.

Additional Feature

Widest Lift Option 

Over one foot wider than competitor lifts, our 119 3/8" drive-through lift is the widest on the market with 17" of additional column-to-column space. This is perfect for technicians who need open- door access to wide vehicles or who just need to drive wider vehicles through to another part of your shop's bay.

Last Feature

Shockwave™™ Accelerator Option

Shockwave-equipped lifts are the fastest in the world. They provide two times faster rise and descent, boosting your shop's speed, productivity, and profit.
