OTC
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about OTC from 3G Electric.
What is the load capacity and maximum height of the OTC S06 medium-duty jack stand?
The OTC S06 is a 6-ton capacity jack stand with a ratchet handle, a square steel base, and a V-notch saddle. Its maximum extended height is 23-5/8 inches. It is sold as a pair under SKU 3G-OTH-497. The square base and V-notch saddle are intended to locate and support vehicles or equipment during maintenance. When specifying, confirm the 6-ton rating and the 23-5/8 inch maximum height against the load and clearance requirements of the equipment being supported.
What is the OTC 1520 mobile column lift rated for, and what is its lift range?
The OTC 1520 is a single mobile column lift with a 10-ton load capacity. Its minimum lift height is 0 inches and its maximum lift height is 24 inches. It is used for raising trucks, buses, and heavy equipment for under-vehicle service, tire changes, and related maintenance. Because it is a single-column unit, the number of columns required depends on the vehicle configuration and the intended lifting procedure. Confirm the 10-ton per-column rating and the 0 to 24 inch lift range against the vehicle's weight and under-vehicle access needs.
What injector height settings are available in OTC injector height gauges?
OTC injector height gauges include the 5870-3, which sets injector body height to 3.078 inches, and the 5870-2, which sets injector body height to 1.484 inches. Both are used in diesel engine fuel system service to set injector body height for injector timing. The correct gauge depends on the engine and injector specification. These are individual tools, not kits. Confirm the required injector height setting from the engine service information before selecting the gauge.
What does the OTC 6550 master fuel injection kit include and which systems does it test?
The OTC 6550 is a plastic fuel injector test kit for testing fuel injection systems on GM TBI, Ford, Chrysler, Jeep vehicles, imports, and CIS/CISE fuel systems. It includes a replacement seal kit. The kit connects to the injector rail to measure pressure as part of diagnosis. It is supplied as a kit rather than as individual gauges. Confirm the vehicle or system being tested against the listed coverage before ordering, and check whether the included seal kit matches the injectors in use.
What is the OTC 6472 camshaft sensor synchronizer tool used for?
The OTC 6472 is a single-piece camshaft sensor synchronizer tool for Ford engines. It measures 7 inches in length and 4-5/16 inches in width. It is used during engine service to synchronize camshaft sensors and ensure correct alignment, helping to prevent timing errors. Because it is Ford-specific, confirm the engine family and sensor arrangement before use. The tool is supplied as one piece; no additional components are listed for this MPN.
What is the OTC 5214 forklift jack rated for and how is it operated?
The OTC 5214 is a manual-handle mechanical forklift jack with a 4-ton load capacity and a minimum lift of 2-5/32 inches. It has a steel body. It is used for lifting forklifts and heavy industrial equipment during maintenance and repair. The manual handle actuates the mechanical lifting mechanism. Confirm the 4-ton rating and the 2-5/32 inch minimum lift against the equipment being raised and the available clearance. It is a mechanical jack, not a hydraulic model.
