The physics applied behind a Big Red Hydraulic Bottle Jack follows Pascal's principle. It simply signifies that the liquid inside a container is incompressible that results in similar pressure within a container at each point. While lifting heavy loads, the jacks use pump plungers to move oil via two cylinders.

HI-LOAD provides the largest selection of hydraulic cylinders, jacks and rams, fully supported and available through the most extensive network of distributors worldwide. We have a solution for virtually any application – lifting, pushing, pulling, bending or holding – in most industrial and commercial work environments. HI-LOAD offers hundreds of different configurations of mechanical and hydraulic cylinders and lifting systems, plus products ranging from hydraulic jacks for portability and tight fits, to engineered systems for precise control over multiple lift points.

A jack is a mechanical lifting device used to apply great forces or lift heavy loads. A mechanical jack employs a screw thread for lifting heavy equipment. ... Jacks are usually rated for a maximum lifting capacity (for example, 1.5 tons or 3 tons). Industrial jacks can be rated for many tons of load.
