Description
Pasquin P103 Air Hydraulic Jack
The Pasquin P103 is a compact, high-capacity air hydraulic jack engineered for the demanding environments of Irish automotive and industrial workshops. Featuring a triple-stage lifting system, it delivers a versatile capacity ranging from 33 tons to 10 tons, making it an essential tool for servicing heavy goods vehicles (HGVs), agricultural machinery, and plant equipment. With a low entry height of 120 mm, it easily fits under low-clearance chassis while providing a stable, powerful lift.
The Pasquin P103 represents the pinnacle of Italian engineering, specifically tailored for the heavy-duty lifting requirements of the Irish transport and agricultural sectors. Whether you are operating a busy commercial fleet hub in Dublin or a plant hire shop in Belfast, the P103 provides the reliability and safety your team needs.
Versatile Multi-Stage Performance The standout feature of the P103 is its triple-stage telescopic piston. This design allows for high-tonnage lifting at the initial stage (33 tons) for heavy loads, transitioning to 18 tons and 10 tons as the height increases. This adaptability ensures you have the right power at the right height for various axle types.
Built for the Professional Environment Constructed with high-grade materials to withstand the rigors of daily workshop use, the P103 operates on a working air pressure of 9–12 atm. Its ergonomic long handle and compact 580mm body length allow for easy maneuverability in tight workshop bays, while the low 120 mm minimum height ensures access to modern, low-slung vehicle frames.

Which Pasquin Jack Should You Choose?
1. The Low-Profile Specialists (P182C vs. P103)
-
If you primarily service buses, coaches, and low-slung trucks, choose the P182C. Its 150mm entry point is perfect for modern aerodynamic vehicle designs.
-
If you need even more clearance, the P103 is a 3-stage powerhouse with a tiny 120mm minimum height, making it one of the lowest professional jacks on the market.
2. The All-Rounder (P152C)
-
The P152C remains the standard for most Irish commercial garages. It offers a higher lift (364mm) than the 182 C, provided you don't need that extra-low 150mm entry height.
3. The Heavy Hitters (P502 vs. P250C)
-
For heavy plant and construction machinery, the P 502 offers the best stability and reach, though it is a heavier unit at 74kg.
-
The P 250 C is the "Mobile Mechanic's" version of the 50-ton lift. It gives you the same 50/25 ton capacity but in a much lighter 42kg frame, making it easier to transport for on-site repairs.
