Vestil PLB/S-5 Steel Pry Lever Bar 5 Ft. Height 5,000 Lb. Capacity Blue

Good quality. Beefy. Others complained about the little appendage that sticks out between the wheels (prevents pushing the handle completely down to the floor). After using this pry bar for a few months moving heavy machinery i found that appendage was handy to use my foot to push the pry bar under where i wanted it or in some cases to use my foot to hold the pry bar in place while i pushed down on the lever. Without that appendage there isnt any good surfaces on the prybar to push with your foot. Getting higher pry lifts is simply done by placing a wood spacer so a higher lift is done in steps. Most of the time i didnt need to make high lifts. I discovered having wheels on the end of a long pry bar allowed me to lift then swing the pry bar handle either left or right to shimmy heavy equipment right where it wanted it. Pry bar with urathane wheels protects the shop floor from being gouged or damaged which would happen if a crow bar is used to shimmy heavy equipment. Long unwieldy equipment can be moved on these pry bar wheels when used in combination with a pallet jack.

Raised and moved a 1200 lb commercial safe with two people using this bar. You can raise the safe with one person with the bar, the second person helps in moving it. We could barely budge the safe with two people without the bar as it was nestled in a corner. The back spur / kickstand limits how high you can lift object- but that is probably best in most instances as I believe it adds stability holding it up in place. The bar did lift the front of the safe up high enough to help us get the forks of a pallet jack under the safe enough to then push the safe up onto the pallet jack. It was a bear but saved us dome real back pain. Glad I bought it.

I needed to move a 500 lbs gun safe by myself across the garage cement floor, so I got this so I could lift one side of the safe and then put EZ Moves II Furniture Slides under it. I just used the Vestil Bar to lift one side and kick a small 2x4 under it so I could take my time and put the EZ Moves II Furniture Slides under it. The secret to making the EZ Moves II Furniture Slides work on cement is to use a dry lubricant under them. The cheapest is Boric Acid (you can find it at Home Depot under the Hot Shot Brand it is used as a Roach Killing Powder). Just spray some of this under your safe before you put the EZ Moves II Furniture Slides under each corner - if you're pushing it along way you might want to lay a light trail in front of you - just remember that this stuff acts like a Dry Lubricant so watch where you step because you may find yourself slipping like you are on ice.

Does the job once you cut that ridiculous dick off the back.The thing is almost useless until you do that. Has maybe a 2 inch lift with that thing in the way... Like everything made today - it's a bit sloppy - nothing lined up straight before welding, etc... It doesn't make a big difference on a product like this, just irritating that everything has to be made so bad anymore... But it is plenty heavy duty and will lift your big stuff.

Great product once you remove that weird thing on the back. I received this product today and high immediately removed that piece. Completely unnecessary.To answer the question that were all wondering. With the rear useless piece removed, you can lift up to almost 9".I'm not going to be Petty and give this lesson a five star review simply because there's a strange piece added to it. Maybe the designer had other things in mind. For example. If you are moving to Safe you do not need to live up to 9 in. I believe that I was able to get up to almost 6 inches with a piece still attached.

The media could not be loaded. Seemed very sturdy. Wheels were loose on the axle. I thought it would be on a bearing and not just a solid axle like a hand cart does ?!

was a little bit skeptical as many similar were almost double the price. We use it to move video game cabinets and other heavy cabinets. never had an issue and great quality so far

This is an awesome piece of equipment that makes moving anything heavy a breeze. Great to do business with. Item receivevd was exactly what I expected. At, At, At.
