Husky Towing Electric Jack-brute Hb3000
Brute Power Jacks
The Husky Brute is loaded with features not found on some other power jacks. The Brute is powerful, with a capacity of up to 4,500 lbs. for Model HB4500 (3,000 lbs. for Models HB3000 and HB3000/2). It’s fast, with a travel speed as fast as 10 inches in 38 seconds. It does the job, with an 18 inch full stroke and 6 inch drop down leg (except Model HB3000/2, which does not have a drop down leg). It’s tough, with hardened steel gears. It’s secure, with weather protected switches and a water resistant enclosure. It’s versatile, fitting all A-Frame couplers. It’s economical, with a low 25A draw at rated load (HB4500) or 15A (HB3000 and HB3000/2). And it’s convenient, with three LED work lights (the most you’ll find on a power jack), a built-in connector storage bracket not found on any other power jack, and a 30A circuit breaker. Model HB4500 also includes a level.
Brute Jack Features
- Full 18” stroke.
- Economical to use with its low 25A draw at rated load.
- 3 LED work lights (high output LED on the Super Brutes) illuminate the coupler as well as the hookup brackets.
- Connector storage bracket not found on any other power jack.
- Durable hammer gray finish.
- Quiet design; low noise level during operation.
- 2-1/4” outer tube dia. fits all 2-1/4” A-frame couplers.
- 5.5” dia. foot pad.
- Smart Stop™ uses a planetary gear timing system which shuts down the power to the motor before the nut reaches the hard stop point, eliminating the hard mechanical stop and stress on the jack, and reducing current draw.
Less Friction
The Brute is the only power jack in its price range that has a ball screw, which reduces friction compared to the ACME screw used on some other brands. The ball bearings roll through the threads on the Brute’s shaft and nut.
- Allows the motor to work less
- Draws less amperage
- Creates less heat
- Reduces noise
- Increases motor and jack life
