  • Free seal kit included
  • Includes carrying handle
Cons
  • Quite heavy

Performance

Unless you’re involved in heavy cargo transport, there’s not much reason for you to go out and get a 20 ton bottle jack like the OTC 9320. Unlike the Alltrade 640912 Black All Bottle jack, It’s capable of lifting vehicles the size of a semi-truck, and it’s forged cylinder base helps prevent leaks from happening. The jack reaches a maximum height of about 20 inches, though if you add on a screw extension, the height jumps slightly to about 22 inches.

Design

By most standards, the OTC 9320 bottle jack is quite huge. It measures about 6 x 9 x 12 inches, and is significantly larger than the Torin Hydraulic Bottle Jack Capacity. This 20 ton bottle jack from OTC comes with a carrying handle that makes it easy to move around with, and it’s something that everyone would find essential since the jack itself weighs a hefty 28 pounds. At slightly over 4 inches by 7 inches, the bottle jack’s forged base is big enough to provide a steady base, ensure strength and eliminate leaks. The bottle jack has got a 21/8 diameter saddle which gives it enough surface area to ensure a proper grip between the jack and the vehicle.

Value

To make pumping easier, the OTC 9320 is put together using an inline design, where the pump mechanism is centered on the cylinder unlike the Pro Lift B 004D Grey Hydraulic Bottle jack. This design makes operating the cylinder a lot easier compared to other bottle jacks that have the pump mechanism beside the cylinder. There’s also a chrome piston pump for additional rust resistance, and this is great because it means the jack becomes more durable.

OTC 9320 Stinger Wrap Up

As an added benefit, the OTC 9320 includes a free seal kit in its packaging, and this is important because the seal that comes with the hydraulic jack is likely to break after sustained use. With the extra seal kit, you’ll be able to replace the jack seal by yourself, and preserve the life of your hydraulic jack.
