Today we're going to be taking a look at a round A-Frame trailer jack. This utility jack is going to let you raise and lower your trailer. It's going to feature a lift capacity of 5000lbs. The outer tube's going to have a diameter of 2 1/4" and the inner tube's going to have a diameter of right at 2". This does feature a top line handle that's going to libe 00:00:19 easily raise and lower the jack. It's got a really comfortable grip design, this is a claw grip.

It provides you with a nice grip that way, makes it very easy when you're raising and lowering your jack. You can see that it has a really nice fluid design, I don't feel any kinking or binding. Really makes for seamless operation, when it comes to raising and lowering the trailer. One of the things I want to mention about the handle, is that it can be moved over to the stowed position when it's not being used. Just like that, so really nice design of the handle mechanism on this jack. The handle radius, if we take a measurement from the center of where it mounts, to the outer edge of the actual claw grip, that's going to give us a measurement.

It looks to be right around . pretty close to 8". That's going to be our handle radius. Now the jack is going to be made from a steel construction. The outer tube, the inner tube, and this mounting platform that mounts our A-Frame trailer. All of that is going to have a really nice black powder coat finish on it.

It's going to stand up really well to rust and corrosion. Making sure that the jack and the components last for a long time. Right here on the inner tube, I do want to point out that it has a small hole located on each side. That way you can easily attach an accessory like a footplate, or a wheel assembly. Now those items are sold separately but if you're in need of one, you can find them right here at etrailer.com. This is a bolt on installation designed for an A-Frame trailer.

It's going to feature 3 pre-drilled elongated mount holes. That way you can easily get this installed on your trailer. A few other measurements I want to go over with you real quick. Let's make sure our jack is in the fully retracted position. That's as low as it will go. I'm going to measure from the bottom of the inner tube, to the bottom of that mounting plate. This is going to be our fully retracted measurement. It's going to measure pretty close to 10". Now when this jack was fully extended, I did that same measurement and that measurement increased to 25". This jack is going to offer a trav 00:02:26 or a lift of 15". A few more measurements I want to go over with you real quick. I want to go over some clearance measurements. There's going to be 3 measurements I'm going to take. We're going to take a look at the measurement from the bottom of the mounting surface to the top of the jack, to the top of the handle mount, and to the top of the claw grip. Measuring to the top of the jack, we're looking at about 10 7/8". To the top of the handle mount, we're looking at about 12 1/2". Then to the top of that claw grip we're looking at about 14 1/2". Now if I move it over to the stowed position, that clearance measurement is going to be the same as that second measurement I gave you. From here to here, we're looking at about 12 1/2". That's going to do it for today's look at the round A-Frame trailer jack that features a lift capacity of 5000lbs.
