Toe Jacks

WHAT IS A TOE JACK?

A toe jack is a specialised lifting tool designed to lift heavy loads by using a low-profile toe or foot that can slide under very small clearance space. Unlike traditional jacks, toe jacks offer flexibility because they can lift both from the toe (close to the ground) and from the head (higher up).

Hydraulic toe jacks are a type of toe jack that uses hydraulic pressure to lift loads with less effort compared to a mechanical to jack, and is therefore often used to lift very heavy loads where more control is needed.

COMMON USES FOR A TOE JACK

Industrial toe jacks are most often used in:

  • Industrial environments for moving factory machinery, large equipment, and engines.
  • Warehousing for relocating palletised goods, containers, and heavy inventory stock.
  • Construction sites for lifting beams, structures, and or positioning bulky building materials.
  • Workshops for performing tasks such as automotive maintenance or precision lifting.  

BENEFITS OF USING OUR TOE JACKS

Investing in an industrial and hydraulic toe jack can transform your heavy lifting operations. Here are some standout benefits to help you make the most informed decision:

Lift Heavy in Tight Spaces: A toe jack can easily slide under machines, crates, or equipment that sit close to the ground.

Powerful Lifting Capacity: Whether you need to lift a 5 tonne machine or a smaller load, there is a low-clearance jack suitable for the job.

Flexible Dual Lifting Points: Toe jacks allow for greater control over your lifts and are far more adaptable than conventional lifting jacks.

Safety & Reliability: Modern hydraulic toe jacks have been designed with safety at their core, many incorporating features such as overload protection to prevent accidents.

Save Time & Effort: Toe jacks make moving heavy loads quicker, safer, smoother, and enhance efficiency.

Built-to-Last: Typically constructed from high-quality steel and other durable materials, low-clearance lifting jacks can withstand rigorous use, even in the most demanding environments.

HOW TO USE YOUR TOE JACK SAFELY

  • Inspect your toe jack before every use
  • Choose the right capacity for the task
  • Position the toe jack properly
  • Lift your load gradually and evenly
  • Use support blocks once load has been lifted for additional stability
  • Lower your load with care and attention
  • Wear proper safety gear such as steel toe-capped boots, gloves, and safety glasses

TOE JACK FAQs

Can toe jacks be used on uneven or sloped surfaces?

Toe jacks should only be used on solid, level ground to maintain full load stability. Using a toe jack on an uneven surface increases the risk of tipping and may breach workplace safety regulations such as PUWER in the UK.

Can I use multiple toe jacks simultaneously for lifting large machinery?

Yes, multi-jack setups are common, especially in rigging or heavy machinery moves. However, synchronisation is crucial. Use load-distribution beams and control systems to prevent uneven lifting, which could cause structural damage or breach safety protocols.

What industries commonly rely on toe jacks for heavy lifting tasks?

Toe jacks are widely used in machinery installation, aerospace assembly, rail maintenance, and transformer relocation. Their low-entry toe makes them essential for lifting loads with minimal ground clearance where forklifts or cranes can’t be used.

Are hydraulic toe jacks suitable for cleanroom or food-grade environments?

Some toe jacks come with sealed hydraulic systems and stainless steel components ideal for cleanroom or hygienic applications. Always check if the model meets relevant standards like ISO 14644 (cleanrooms) or FDA CFR 21 (food contact materials).

What is the difference between a mechanical toe jack and a hydraulic jack?

Toe jacks can lift heavy machinery with very limited ground clearance and can be hydraulic or mechanical. Hydraulic toe jacks and uses pressure from a small cylinder to a larger one using a fluid (oil), and is better for lifting heavier loads. Whilst a mechanical toe jack uses screw mechanism or rack and pinion to generate lift.
