TL;DR The 3-ton rating is the manufacturer's listing figure; 'meets ANSI/ASME PASE safety standards' names no test body or certificate, an unverified assurance, not documented certification. Minimum height 5.5 inches fits standard cars, crossovers, and standard trucks at rest; lowered or sports cars need ramps.
The AV-300101F is a single-piston, single-stage 3-ton steel hydraulic floor jack, minimum height 5.5 inches and maximum 18.5 inches, reaching standard passenger cars, crossovers, and light-to-standard trucks. The saddle is round, 360-degree rotatable, with a rubber contact pad; OEM jack-pad-adapter fitment is not documented. Two rear wheels and two front swivel casters handle repositioning. Being single-piston, it takes more strokes to full height than the brand's own dual-piston model. The listing scopes it away from lifted vehicles, heavy-duty trucks, and RVs, and notes EV owners need a jack-point adapter.
Right fit for standard-height cars, crossovers, minivans, and standard trucks doing routine home tire and brake work. Skip it for lifted or heavy-duty trucks, RVs, or vehicles needing under-5.5-inch clearance.
Sealed mechanical tool; no chemical exposure, hydraulic fluid stays internal. Health score: 9.5, Minimal Risk. The 3-ton rating is self-reported; the PASE claim is unverified, not documented certification. Alloy-steel frame is scrap-recyclable; no leak pattern is documented.
The AV-300101F is rated for 3 tons (6,000 pounds) per its Amazon listing. The manufacturer's own site lists 6,600 pounds for the same model number, a label inconsistency across the brand's sales channels that has not been independently resolved.
Minimum height is 5.5 inches, which clears standard passenger cars, crossovers, minivans, and standard pickup trucks at normal ride height. Lowered vehicles and most sports cars will need ramps first.
The listing states it 'meets ANSI/ASME PASE safety standards,' but names no test body, certificate number, or standard year. This reads as an unverified manufacturer claim rather than documented third-party certification.
This model (AV-300101F) uses a single-piston pump, which needs more handle strokes to reach full height. AV Steel's dual-piston sibling model is built for faster lifting with fewer strokes and has a lower minimum height for low-clearance vehicles.
No. The manufacturer scopes this jack to standard cars, SUVs, and standard pickup trucks, and specifically excludes lifted vehicles, heavy-duty trucks, and RVs.
