780395 - Sumner FAB SAF Vee Head Pipe Jack Stand 3500lb

Heavy-Duty Pipe Support for Professional Fabrication

The Sumner Manufacturing Company FAB SAF™ FABSAFV Jack Stand is a robust solution engineered for the rigorous demands of industrial pipe fabrication and welding. Designed with a focus on stability and load-bearing capacity, this jack stand is an essential tool for MRO professionals and pipe fitters requiring reliable support for heavy piping systems. The unit features a substantial 3500 lb (1587 kg) load capacity, making it suitable for a wide range of steel and alloy pipe applications.

At the core of the FABSAFV model is its large, ribbed Vee head. This specialized head is designed to securely cradle pipes ranging from 1/8 inch up to 24 inches in diameter, preventing slippage and ensuring precise alignment during welding or fitting operations. While the head geometry can accommodate larger diameters (up to 36 inches in certain configurations), the stand is rated and optimized for the 1/8-24 inch range to maintain maximum safety factors. The ribbed texture of the Vee head provides additional grip, essential when working with heavy or slick materials.

Operational efficiency is enhanced by the stand's adjustable height mechanism, which ranges from 32 inches to 52 inches. This adjustability allows operators to align pipes perfectly with welding machines or other fabrication equipment, reducing ergonomic strain and improving workflow. The inclusion of a quick-action lock washer facilitates rapid height changes without compromising safety, allowing for fast setup and adjustments on dynamic job sites.

Stability is a critical safety feature in pipe fabrication, and the FAB SAF™ excels with its 30-inch wide base. This broad footprint significantly lowers the center of gravity, resisting tipping forces even when handling maximum loads. Constructed from durable steel, the FABSAFV is built to withstand the harsh conditions of workshops and construction sites, ensuring long-term service life and reliability.
