Load capacity is crucial when choosing a pipe stand or jack because it determines the maximum weight the equipment can safely support. Selecting a stand or jack with an appropriate load rating ensures safe operation and prevents equipment failure during heavy-duty tasks. The best load capacity depends on your application—higher capacities are necessary for large-diameter or heavy-walled pipes, while lighter jobs may require less. Available products in this category range from standard models like the Mathey Dearman Low Profile V-Head Pipe Jack 22"-39" - 4000 (with a 2,500 lbs. capacity) to heavy-duty options such as the Mathey Dearman B&B Giant Jacks - 5 Leg Giant Jack - 3510, ideal for the most demanding industrial applications. A variety of load capacities are available, allowing you to select the right product for your project’s requirements.
