The U-T50B1 is a professional 5-ton two-post vehicle lift engineered for automotive workshops, tyre and service centres, dealerships, and fleet maintenance facilities that need a high-capacity, structurally reliable lifting platform in the most weight-efficient, low-profile, and ergonomically accessible format available in the UNITE vehicle lift range. With dual-sided manual lock release for bilateral latch convenience, a 95mm minimum height for the lowest vehicle floor clearance in the lineup, adjustable lowering time for operator-controlled descent speed, dual hydraulic cylinders, automatic all-steel arm locking, anti-explosion hydraulic safety valve, and a 750kg machine weight that makes installation and positioning significantly more manageable than heavier alternatives, the U-T50B1 delivers professional 5-ton lifting capability with the accessibility advantages that distinguish it within the range.

Safety Features:

Dual-Sided Manual Lock Release — Bilateral Latch Access From Either Working Position The U-T50B1's dual-sided manual lock release is the ergonomic convenience feature that differentiates it from the single-sided release of the U-T50MSB. Where a single-sided release requires the technician to be positioned on the release side of the lift to operate the safety latch — potentially requiring repositioning from the opposite working side of the vehicle — the U-T50B1's dual-sided design places a latch release control on both columns, accessible from either side of the lift. Whichever side of the vehicle the technician is working from at the end of the service procedure, the latch release is within reach — eliminating the step around the vehicle that single-sided release systems require and maintaining the natural working position at both sides of the bay. For workshops where technician efficiency at every step of the service workflow matters, the dual-sided release is the small design detail that makes a consistent, accumulated difference across every lift cycle every day.

95mm Minimum Height — The Lowest Floor Profile in the UNITE Lift Lineup
The U-T50B1's 95mm minimum height is the lowest minimum clearance specification in the entire UNITE vehicle lift range — providing the smallest gap between the lift's arm pad surface and the workshop floor when the lift is at its lowest position. This 95mm minimum clearance accommodates vehicles with particularly low ground clearance — sports cars, low-profile passenger vehicles, modified vehicles, and any fitment where ground clearance is genuinely marginal for loading onto a standard-minimum-height lift. For workshops that service a vehicle mix including low-clearance vehicles that cannot load onto 110mm or higher minimum-height lifts without contact risk, the U-T50B1's 95mm specification is the clearance advantage that makes it the correct lift choice for that vehicle range.

Adjustable Lowering Time — Operator-Controlled Descent Speed
The U-T50B1's adjustable lowering time is a unique specification in the UNITE vehicle lift range — providing the ability to adjust the speed at which the lift carriages descend during the lowering cycle to suit different service procedures, vehicle types, and operator preferences. Faster lowering reduces cycle time between vehicles for efficient throughput. Slower lowering provides more controlled, more cautious descent for heavy vehicles, for procedures where the vehicle's position needs to be managed carefully during lowering, or for operators who prefer a more gradual descent confirmation before the vehicle fully contacts the floor. The adjustable setting gives the workshop control over a parameter that most lifts fix at a single speed — adapting the lift's behavior to the workflow rather than requiring the workflow to adapt to the lift.

Automatic All-Steel Arm-Locking Device — Positive Mechanical Security at Full Load
The U-T50B1's automatic all-steel arm-locking device engages mechanically whenever the lift arms are positioned at the vehicle's support points — securing arm position against vehicle weight, vibration, and operational forces throughout the service cycle. All-steel construction provides the structural integrity that positive arm locking demands under the full 5,000kg rated capacity — ensuring that the support point position established before the lift begins is the position maintained throughout every service procedure at every lift height.

Dual Hydraulic Cylinders — Synchronized Load Distribution
The U-T50B1's dual hydraulic cylinder configuration distributes the 5,000kg rated load across two independent synchronized cylinders — providing greater carriage stability, more consistent vehicle support under variable weight distributions, and reduced individual hydraulic component stress compared to single-cylinder configurations. The synchronized system maintains even column height throughout every lift and lower cycle — preventing the differential height development between columns that can develop under asymmetric vehicle loads.

Anti-Explosion Hydraulic Safety Valve — Active Pressure Protection
The U-T50B1's anti-explosion safety valve prevents uncontrolled hydraulic pressure release and the catastrophic sudden descent risk that hydraulic system failure under full load creates — providing active protection for both the vehicle on the lift and the technicians working beneath it at the full 5,000kg rated capacity.

Height Limit Switch and Chain Protector — Complete Operating Envelope Protection
The U-T50B1's height limit switch automatically cuts lift power at maximum safe operating height — preventing over-travel beyond the 1,900mm rated lift height regardless of operator input. The chain protector shields the drive chain from workshop contamination and wear — protecting drive system mechanical integrity across the high-cycle commercial operation the lift is designed to sustain.

750kg Machine Weight — Lightest in the UNITE Lift Range
The U-T50B1's 750kg machine weight is the lowest in the entire UNITE vehicle lift range — 166kg lighter than the previously lightest U-T50MSB (916kg) and 281kg lighter than the U-T50EB (1,031kg). This significant weight reduction translates into measurably easier installation handling, more manageable workshop positioning during initial setup and any subsequent repositioning, and lower floor structural load requirements — making the U-T50B1 the most practically accessible 5-ton lift in the range from a logistics and installation perspective. For workshops where installation is performed by the workshop team rather than a dedicated installation crew, the 750kg weight difference is the specification that determines how straightforward the installation day actually is.

Three-Stage Arms With 70mm Adapters — Standard Vehicle Coverage
The U-T50B1's three-stage adjustable arms extend from a minimum of 775mm to a maximum of 1,475mm reach — accommodating passenger cars, SUVs, vans, and light commercial vehicles within the lift's 2,726mm maximum car width capacity. The standard 4 × 70mm adapters provide the correct pad height for standard vehicle pinch point clearance, with arm reach fully adjustable for each vehicle type.
