bottle jack

Hydraulic lifting device

A bottle jack is a hydraulic jack shaped like a squat cylinder or bottle, used to lift heavy loads—typically vehicles during tire changes or repairs.

The compact vertical design distinguishes it from scissor jacks or floor jacks: Keep a bottle jack in the trunk for emergencies.

Bottle jacks handle heavier loads than most portable jacks but require a flat, stable surface.
