An axle stand is a specialist tool used to support cars and other vehicles that have been lifted off the ground to access the underside. They are raised using hydraulic jacks to carry out maintenance or make repairs including changing the oil or fixing an exhaust pipe. Axle stands are made from hardwearing, load-bearing metals like aluminium, steel or cast iron which will not slip, break or twist when exposed to the weight of a car. 

Axle stands are more robust than jacks because they do not contain hydraulic or mechanical parts which can wear out over time. They are also less prone to shifting position under stress, movement which could cause the vehicle to fall. 

When using axle stands, it is important to ensure that they are suitable for the vehicle you will be supporting and will be able to support its full weight. It is also important to place chocks (wheel wedges) beneath the wheels opposite the end of the car you are raising – i.e. beneath the front wheels if you are raising the back of the vehicle, and against the back wheels if you are raising the front. Safety is always an important consideration but especially so when fatal accidents are a possibility.
