Nationwide NW-10KACD Asymmetric & Symmetric Two Post Car Lift 10,000 lbs

Product Overview

Nationwide NW-10KACD Asymmetric & Symmetric Two Post Car Lift 10,000 lbs

The Nationwide NW-10KACD two-post floor plate lift delivers reliable, high-performance lifting with a 10,000 lb. capacity ideal for cars, SUVs, and light trucks in professional automotive shops. This rugged lift is engineered to meet strict quality standards and deliver lasting durability in busy shop environments. With its dual metric arms offering both asymmetric and symmetric lifting configurations, the NW-10KACD provides exceptional versatility for a wide range of vehicles and service applications.

Featuring dual hydraulic chain-drive cylinders and automatic arm restraints, this lift ensures stable, secure operation every time. A dual-point manual safety release gives technicians added control and confidence during vehicle servicing. The lift's innovative three-stage front arms and extendable rear arms accommodate varying wheelbases and vehicle types, while the direct drive cylinder design—where the cylinder attaches directly to the carriage—provides enhanced stability and smooth lifting performance.

Advanced Safety System for Maximum Protection

The safety latch system on the NW-10KACD operates similarly to an extension ladder for reliable, intuitive protection. The safety latch remains in contact with the rack as the lift ascends and automatically drops into place as the lift rises. The safety latch engages the rack in 3-inch (76mm) increments, starting at approximately 16 inches (406mm) from the ground, ensuring multiple secure locking positions throughout the lift's travel range.

The locking latch must be manually disengaged for the lift to descend, giving technicians full control over lowering operations. The latch is released by pulling the release cable, which raises the latch up off the latch rack. Once the raise button is pressed, the latch will automatically re-engage after approximately 3 inches (76mm) of travel, providing continuous protection during lifting operations.

Additional safety features include a padded shut-off bar and heavy-duty rubber door guards that protect both vehicles and shop personnel. These thoughtful design elements reduce the risk of damage during vehicle positioning and enhance overall workplace safety.

Versatile Dual Configuration Design

What sets the NW-10KACD apart is its dual metric arm system that seamlessly operates in both asymmetric and symmetric modes. The innovative three-stage arms on the front provide exceptional reach flexibility, extending from 25.5 inches to 44.25 inches, while the rear arms extend from 39.5 inches to 57.5 inches. This extensive adjustability makes it easy to position lift points precisely where needed for different vehicle designs and weight distributions.

The lift offers an impressive 96-inch drive-through clearance between arms and 115.75 inches between posts, providing ample room for positioning vehicles and working comfortably underneath. With a maximum lifting height of 72 inches (or 77.75 inches with adapters ), technicians gain excellent undercarriage access for comprehensive service and repair work.

The screw-style adjustable pads with stack adapters ( 1.5-inch and 5-inch ) offer precise height adjustment from 4 inches to 10 inches, accommodating various vehicle lift points and frame configurations. The included set of drop-in height adapters further enhances versatility, making this lift suitable for everything from low-profile sports cars to higher-clearance SUVs and light trucks.
