Apex X-Strut

The NEW Apex X-Strut® takes the popular, user-friendly design of our Auto X-Strut® and beefs it up for even more capability. This well-rounded strut features the combination of a threaded inner tube and a square outer tube, allowing for a built-in ratchet on the standard strut, and an internal positive stop to eliminate the risk of overextension. The Apex accepts the Super X-Strut® series 12″ extension on both the standard and short size struts.

Shown with Add-on Jack (APX-JACK). This jack is made specifically for the new Apex X-Strut® with a 6,000 lb lifting capacity and a 2:1 safety factor. Weight: 25 lbs.

• The Apex X-Strut® features the combination of a milled aluminum inner tube with a welded aluminum chassis for superior strength when shoring, stabilizing and lifting, without adding weight.

QUICK-RELEASE END FITTINGS
