Lift pads are a wear item, they wear at different rates depending on which arm sees the heaviest use, and replacing one worn pad while three tired ones stay on the lift is how a vehicle ends up sitting unevenly on the arms. A set replaces the whole contact surface of the lift at once, so all four arms present the same face to the vehicle again.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThese fit Katool two-post lifts across the range, which makes them the straightforward maintenance part rather than a fitment puzzle.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat a screw pad is\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eA screw pad takes its name from the threaded stem it sits on: the pad body turns to raise or lower the contact face. That is what lets a technician bring all four contact points onto a vehicle's lift points when those points are not all at the same height — which, on anything with sills at different heights, a slight list from a heavy fuel tank, or a mismatched pair of springs, is most vehicles most days. The alternative to adjustable pads is a stack of loose blocks, and loose blocks are the thing that goes wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe height range available on this particular pad is not published in our data. We are not going to state one we cannot source, so if adjustment range is the reason you are buying, ask us before you order and we will confirm it against the manufacturer's documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhy worn pads are a safety item and not a cosmetic one\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eA lift pad does two jobs at once. It carries the load, and it grips. As the contact surface hardens, glazes, cracks or crumbles at the edges, the grip goes first — long before the pad looks unusable. A vehicle that shifts a fraction of an inch on the arms during a brake job is not merely startling; it is the beginning of the failure everyone in a workshop has heard a story about.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe everyday version of the same problem is damage. A perished pad transmits point loads straight into a pinch weld or a sill, and the mark it leaves is on a customer's car. New pads with an intact face spread the load the way the lift was designed for.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFitting a set: the practical checklist\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eConfirm your lift.\u003c\/strong\u003e These are made for Katool two-post lifts.

Warehouse collection is offered too. Open the parcel and count the pads before you sign anything: a short-shipped set is far easier to resolve at the door than a week later, and a note written on the delivery paperwork at the time is the record that settles it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eKatool's warranty document for its products is available from us on request. Wear on a consumable contact pad is exactly that — wear — and is not usually a warranty matter; a manufacturing defect is. If you think you have the second rather than the first, photograph the pads before removing them, keep the packaging, and speak to us before disposing of anything.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNeed to check these against your lift before ordering? \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/mechanicsuperstore.com\/pages\/contact\"\u003eTalk to us\u003c\/a\u003e — we would rather answer the question than take a return.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"divider\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-main-product-pickupdelivry-container\"\u003e \u003ch2 class=\"h3 accordion\"\u003ePick Up and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"panel\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-product-pickupdelivry-continer kd-flex-row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-prouduct-pickupdelivry-item\"\u003e \u003cp\u003eCall, text, or chat with us if you have questions. 866-774-7743\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Katool","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49287211778202,"sku":"KT-MP3","price":118.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/coretarps.co.uk\/products\/katool-kt-mp3-lift-screw-pad-set-of-4","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
