Overview
The Autoquip Series 35 Extra Wide is an industrial scissor lift table built with a wider leg stance and base frame to provide greater load stability and larger platform widths than the standard Series 35 model. Unlike the Double Wide—which uses two side‑by‑side scissor mechanisms—the Extra Wide achieves its wider platform using a single scissor set with an expanded frame, making it a more cost‑effective option when your application requires a wider deck without the added complexity or capacity of a tandem configuration.
Standard models offer travel ranges from 24 to 60 inches with load capacities from 2,500 to 15,000 lbs. Platform widths start at 48 inches and extend up to 90 inches on select high‑capacity models. Collapsed heights start as low as 6.5 inches. The hydraulic power unit comes prewired and mounted onboard, and installation requires only lagging the unit to the floor and connecting to electricity.
Features and Benefits
The wider leg stance is the Extra Wide’s defining advantage. By expanding the base frame width beyond the standard Series 35 dimensions, the lift provides improved lateral stability when handling wide, bulky, or unevenly distributed loads. The wider platform gives operators more working surface for oversized parts, multiple components, or assemblies that would overhang the edges of a standard‑width lift table.
All Extra Wide models include dual hydraulic cylinders for smooth, even lifting across the wider platform span. Chrome‑plated, 100,000 psi ultimate‑strength pins at every joint deliver premium load strength and long service life. Single‑piece, steel‑reinforced legs and a 1/4‑ to 3/8‑inch‑thick steel platform make for extremely solid construction with minimal deck deflection. Solid steel legs and added stiffeners provide straight, repeatable roller tracking under heavy or uneven loads.
On‑board maintenance devices let crews safely block open the scissors during inspection. A semi‑transparent polyurethane oil reservoir provides clear fluid level visibility, and double wire‑braided Parker hydraulic hoses resist wear, abrasion, and leaks. High‑strength steel rollers are designed for easy replacement. Autoquip backs every Series 35 Extra Wide with an industry‑best 2‑year warranty on all parts.
Safety and Compliance
Hydraulic velocity fuses completely stop the lift in the unlikely event of uncontrolled descent from a sudden hose rupture. A minimum 3:1 structural factor of safety makes these lifts among the most structurally sound industrial scissor lift tables available. Each unit complies with ANSI MH29.1 for industrial scissor lifts, NFPA 70 National Electric Code, ASTM A36 structural steel standards, ANSI Z535 safety labeling requirements, AWS D.1 welding standards, and applicable portions of OSHA 29CFR1910 for general workplace safety.
Applications
The Series 35 Extra Wide serves applications where standard‑width platform dimensions do not provide enough surface area or lateral stability for the loads being handled. Common uses include work positioning for wide assemblies, panels, or sheet goods that extend beyond the platform edges of a standard lift, ergonomic workstations where multiple parts or fixtures are staged across a wide deck surface, pallet handling where wider pallets or double‑stacked goods require more platform width for safe positioning, and conveyor integration where the lift must match the width of an adjacent conveyor line or material flow path. The Extra Wide is also well suited for applications where the wider stance improves stability during lifting of off‑center or unevenly distributed loads.
Selection Assistance
Choosing the right extra wide scissor lift table depends on your required platform width, load capacity, travel range, and whether you need a single‑scissor or tandem configuration. The Extra Wide provides wider platform widths in a single‑scissor design, which is the most cost‑effective option for moderate loads. For applications requiring even higher end load ratings or capacities up to 24,000 lbs, the Series 35 Double Wide uses two side‑by‑side scissor mechanisms. For applications that need a narrower profile, the Extra Narrow variant offers base frame widths as slim as 16 inches. Autoquip offers extensive customization for all models, and Barron Equipment can help you evaluate the full Series 35 lineup and recommend the right configuration.
