iDeal RAJ-7K-H: two mechanical lock positions, so the load is not resting on air

The RAJ-7K-H is a 7,000 lbs pneumatic-over-hydraulic scissor bridge jack that lives on the runways of a four-post or scissor lift and takes the wheels off them. The feature that ought to decide the purchase is a quiet one in the bullet list: two locking height positions. The jack does not hold a vehicle on trapped air or on hydraulic pressure alone at its working heights — it locks. Anyone who has watched a shop's air pressure sag over a long lunch break understands why that sentence is the important one.

The H in the model number is a fitment, not a trim level. This is the high-mount build, with the roller body assemblies mounted high so the jack sits correctly on lower runway jack rails, and 2" of roller body height adjustment to trim the fit. The low-mount L build is the same jack arranged for higher rails. Getting this letter wrong is the single most common ordering mistake on bridge jacks.

Will It Fit?

• Rail height first. High mount suits lower jack rails. If you can tell us the make and model of the lift it is going onto, we will confirm which build you need before anything ships.
• Air, and specifically volume. iDEAL's requirement is 125 PSI at 20 CFM. Pressure is the easy half; 20 CFM of sustained delivery is what separates a compressor that runs this jack from one that merely reaches the pressure on the gauge.
• The lift underneath. Your four-post carries the jack plus whatever the jack is holding. Check its rating against both together, not against the vehicle alone.
• Weight and handling. 330 lbs shipped. That is a crated figure; the weight riding on your rails is lower, and it is not a number we publish, so ask if your rail loading is marginal.

Matching jack to lift is yours to confirm, and it is the question we would most like you to put to us before you order.

Riding the rails instead of dragging on them

The jack tracks on the top edge of the jack rails on dual-precision roller bearing guide wheels, and the roller body action is spring loaded so the wheels lift clear when there is no load on the jack. That combination is aimed squarely at long-term wear. A bridge jack that drags along a rail chews both the rail and itself; one that rolls on bearings and unloads when idle is still sliding freely after years of daily use. The roller body assemblies adjust for height too, which is how one build covers a range of rail heights rather than a single lift model.

Arms, adapters and what stays out of the mechanism

Support arms adjust for width and lock in position, so the contact points can be set to the vehicle rather than the vehicle being set to the jack. Rubber pad adapters come as a set of two, keeping steel off a pinch weld or a frame rail. Protective scissor skirts shroud the linkage — not cosmetic, since a scissor mechanism that has swallowed shop grit and brake dust is one that starts binding and then starts wearing unevenly.

Perfect For

• Wheel, tyre and brake service on four-post lifts that otherwise cannot get a wheel off the ground.
• Alignment bays needing to free the wheels without moving the vehicle to another lift.
• Fleet and municipal shops where the same four-post handles storage, inspection and repair.
• Well-equipped private workshops with a four-post installed and a compressor rated for continuous air tools.

What's in the Box

From this product's own feature list: the jack with high-mount adjustable-height roller body assemblies, dual-precision roller bearing guide wheels, adjustable width locking support arms, protective scissor skirts, and rubber pad adapters, a set of two. Air supply, hose and fittings are not included. Ask us if you want the packing list confirmed before you order.

iDEAL's published specification for this model

Reproduced in full because this listing has no visible specification block of its own.

What this listing does not tell you

Our feature list prints the descriptions of both the high-mount and the low-mount builds on the same page, which reads as ambiguous on a product that is only one of them. To be explicit: you are looking at the high-mount build. There is also no manual attached to this listing — ask and we will email iDEAL's documentation for the model — and we publish a warranty claims route rather than a term. We will confirm the current term, and its exclusions, in writing before you buy.

On safety listings, stated plainly

The published data for this jack claims no independent third-party safety listing. That is a fact about documentation rather than about construction, but documentation is what an insurer or an inspector reads. If your shop is subject to either, resolve it in writing first — it is a much cheaper conversation before delivery than after.

Shipping and delivery

We quote the freight live at checkout, lower 48 states. This is a freight shipment, not a parcel: plan for unloading at your end or elect to collect from the carrier's terminal, expect a residential fee on a home delivery, and inspect before signing. Anything amiss goes on the delivery receipt in writing at the moment of delivery — once a clean receipt is signed, the carrier's position is that it arrived undamaged.

Warranty

No term is stated here until it is confirmed with iDEAL for your order, which we will do on request. The rule that applies regardless: keep a suspect assembly intact until the claim is open. Cylinders, valves and roller bodies are assessed as they failed; a unit already stripped down is one a warranty department cannot evaluate, and that is a self-inflicted refusal.
