Description
Pasquin P152C Air Hydraulic Jack
Engineered for durability and precision, the Pasquin P152C Air Hydraulic Jack is a staple for professional workshops across Ireland. This two-stage powerhouse is designed to handle the heavy-duty demands of commercial vehicle servicing, providing a robust 30-ton capacity on its first stage and 15 tons on the second.
While the P182C focuses on extra-low clearance, the P152C provides a superior vertical reach of up to 364mm, making it ideal for a wider variety of standard HGVs and agricultural machinery. Despite its strength, the unit remains highly maneuverable at 39kg, featuring a long 1250mm handle and high-quality wheels for easy positioning under any axle.
Built to the highest Italian manufacturing standards, it operates on a standard 9–12 atm air pressure range, ensuring it integrates seamlessly with your existing workshop compressor system. For safety, reliability, and sheer lifting power, the P152C is the professional’s choice for heavy vehicle maintenance.

Which Pasquin Jack Should You Choose?
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. The Heavy Hitters (P502 vs. P250C)
-
For heavy plant and construction machinery, the P502 offers the best stability and reach, though it is a heavier unit at 74kg.
-
The P250C 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.
