Heavy duty vehicle lift manufacturer Stertil-Koni now offers an adapter kit tailored for its inground scissor and piston lifts, which engage the front and rear lifting points on trucks for more efficient lifting.

The recently engineered adapter kit is constructed to be wider and taller, and has also been optimized for both new vehicles with the latest axles as well as older vehicles.

“The net result is to increase the versatility, safety, and performance of Stertil-Koni’s Diamonlift, a state-of-the-art high-pressure telescopic piston lift, and Ecolift, the original ultra-shallow, full-rise axle-engaging scissor lift,” said Matthias Lennemann, Stertil-Koni's heavy-duty inground lift sales manager. “Each kit contains various front and rear adapters and is included, as standard, and the adapters are all engineered to embrace the axles, frame or suspension on the vehicle securely.”

Each adapter pair has a capacity of up to 35,000 lbs., depending on the type of lift with which it is used. The kits are also available to current Stertil-Koni inground lift customers.

Recently, Stertil-Koni also launched a series of multipurpose adapters for its Mobile Column Lifts, which bring wheels-free lifting to shops servicing and maintaining heavy duty vehicles.

“The new inground lift adapter kits are a great leap forward for virtually all truck maintenance facilities using Stertil-Koni lifts to service their heavy-duty vehicles,” said Jean DellAmore, president of Stertil-Koni.
