Executive Summary

/100
The Verdict:
The Halo HL2C-12K is a 12,000-lb clearfloor two-post — the middle of Halo’s heavy-duty range, with the capacity for ¾-ton trucks and big SUVs but a lower price than the 14,000-lb HL2C-14K. It rises 74 inches and clears 117.7 inches of drive-through on a 220V circuit. For a lower-profile build, the baseplate HL2-12K sits far shorter.
- ¾-ton trucks and large SUVs
- Buyers who want headroom above 10k without paying for 14k
- Cars and light trucks (10k is plenty)
- Low ceilings (choose the HL2-12K baseplate)
