What is the Scorpion Floor Jack and How Does it Work?
A floor jack is a tool used to lift heavy loads like automobiles and machinery equipment and suspend them at a particular height in air to work on repairing their parts, maintaining and servicing them. Jacks can be of many types, depending on the purpose they fulfill, like rolling jacks, bridge jacks, or floor jacks.
These jacks mainly have two different types of mechanisms of operation- either hydraulic or mechanical. Scorpion floor jacks by Stan Design Inc. operate based on heavy-duty hydraulics or air motors which eliminates the need for cumbersome and exhausting mechanical hand pumping to lift loads, ensuring safety of the vehicle as well as the lifting professionals.
The hydraulic system used in floor jacks has a simple to understand working process that offers powerful and smooth lifting without hand pumping. Hydraulic systems consist of the following broad components- hydraulic oil, reservoir or buffer or oil tank, main cylinder or ram, release valve, control valve, check valve, lifting arm or pad, hydraulic pump with piston or plunger, and a pump lever or handle.
The reservoir or buffer or oil tank is the physical compartment of the floor jack that holds the hydraulic liquid or pump oil together when it is not in use along with the control valve which stays in a closed position to prevent the accidental flow of oil.
When the handle or lever of the hydraulic pump with piston or plunger is mechanically lowered or raised, it activates force and builds up pressure in the adjoining compartment, i.e., the reservoir or buffer tank containing the hydraulic fluid or pump’s oil.
This applied pressure transfers the oil from the pump through a check valve and into the main cylinder or the ram, which extends out of the hydraulic jack body creating the required lifting force and lifting the load.
Whether it is a rolling bridge jack or a floor jack, they aid customers by lifting and transporting heavy weights, industrial loads, cars, vehicles and machinery equipment for clamping, etc. in varying industries, like:

How to Choose the Right Stan Design Scorpion Floor Jack
There is a list of factors to consider while choosing any floor jack model.
1. Weight Capacity: While shopping for floor jacks it is imperative to look for the weight capacity (expressed in tonnage) it is designed to lift. The Scorpion jacks are available in variants of 24000- 28000 lb.
2. Material: The construction or building of your pit jack, whether it is a steel jack or aluminum jack, is pivotal to assess its performance and sustainability. Steel jacks are naturally stronger than aluminum and useful for lifting heavier loads.
3. Lift Height: It must match the ground clearance of your vehicle to be low enough to slide under its clearance range and high enough to provide adequate space for maintenance and repairs. The Scorpion jacks lift over 36”.
4. Size: The size of your floor jack impacts its portability. The material of your floor jack contributes to its density, weight and size, affecting its portability and making it suitable for particular vehicles based on their respective sizes.
5. Safety: Perhaps the most important factor to consider while purchasing a floor jack is its safety features to prevent accidents and mishaps and ensure safe lifting of heavy loads. The Stand Design Inc jacks have built-in three stage locking mechanism eliminating the need for vehicle stands and ensuring safety.
6. Price: You may be tempted to go after floor jacks that seem cheap but remember affordability does not always determine quality. Seemingly cost-effective floor jacks may turn out to be more expensive in the long run.
7. Brand Reputation: Buying floor jacks from reputable sources, like Stan Design Inc. ensures good quality, warranty and customer service. It is not wise to make jack purchases from unreliable sources as it can turn out to be not only a bad decision but a potentially harmful one with dangerous ramifications.
8. User Feedback: Products like our Stan Design Inc. Scorpion floor jack come with authority as they are user tested and rated. Being on the market for years has given us unique insight into the clientele’s demands, which has helped us serve them better, garnering their love and adulation.
9. Compatibility with your vehicle: Not all jacks are suitable for all vehicles. Whether you own a truck or a SUV or other types of cars, it would influence the choice of your floor jack. Hence, checking the factors like size, portability, build, lift range, weight capacity, etc. is crucial.
