per ramp or 6,500 lb per pair claimed, rubber stops on the base, claimed 6 in lift height, rigid traction surface, made in China

weight capacity per pair claimed, 6.25 in of lift claimed, made in China, has six rubber stops (the most of any brand mentioned in the video)

ton (3,000 lb) per-ramp load rating claimed, made in China

per-ramp weight capacity claimed, raised safety ribs on both sides, claimed 8 in of lift (the most claimed lift of any brand), made in China, sold at Harbor Freight

two-stage incline claimed, 2.5 ton (5,000 lb) capacity for both ramps combined claimed, 17 degree incline claimed, made in China

incline claimed for low clearance vehicles, stackable for storage, 'Core Trax' non-skid base claimed, made in USA

ton hydraulic jack built into each ramp, claimed 10,000 lb low-profile car lift service capacity, minimum height 7.7 in, maximum lift height claimed as 13 in (separately, the measured maximum clearance at the highest setting is given as 14.25 in, a discrepancy from the 13 in claim kept verbatim and unresolved), made in China

capacity per ramp claimed, maximum lift of 8 in claimed, durable black powder-coated finish claimed, made in USA, steel construction (one of only two steel-ramp brands in the video)

each (identical to the figure given for BiSupply elsewhere in the transcript; flagging as a possible coincidence or transcription duplication rather than resolving it)

the heaviest of all brands up to that point in the video

each, by far the heaviest of all 11 brands

slipping just as badly as the Pittsburgh steel ramps on the bare floor; began moving a little on the damp cloth but finally gained enough grip for the vehicle to reach the top without a problem

slipping just as badly as the other plastic ramps on the bare floor; the wet cloth underneath added a lot of traction and the vehicle made it to the top

rubber stops did not prevent slipping on the bare floor; cleaning the floor and stops helped but the ramps still slid unevenly; the ramps finally stayed in place once damp t-shirts were placed underneath

both ramps moved on the bare floor; stayed in place once placed on top of the damp fabric, which the narrator attributes to having six rubber stops

sliding on the bare floor; slid just a little on the damp cloth before gaining a good grip

moved on the smooth concrete floor; a damp cloth did very little to help, and the ramps continued to move

moved on the bare floor; with only one rubber stop underneath, continued sliding even on the damp cloth; made more progress on a second attempt but still slid out from underneath the front tire, one of the few brands that did not ultimately succeed on this test

slid on the bare floor; slid about as badly after cleaning; a damp cloth was not enough to keep the ramps in position on two separate attempts, one of the few brands that did not ultimately succeed on this test

sliding on the bare floor, described as sliding as badly as the steel ramps; a damp cloth added a little traction but not enough to keep the ramps in place, one of the few brands that did not ultimately succeed on this test

moved on the bare floor; the damp fabric 'just didn't provide much traction for the steel ramps', and they continued to move, one of the few brands that did not ultimately succeed on this test

described as not having much of a hump

described as not having much of a hump

restated as 338.5 lb in the closing recap; finished second overall in this test behind Val Wag

described as performing very close to the Pittsburgh plastic ramps

described as almost the same as BiSupply

described as moving into second place at that point in the video (finished third overall behind Val Wag and MaxxHaul, per the closing recap: 'MaxxHaul finished in second place at 338.5 and Pittsburgh steel ramps 240.5 lb')

described as a little better runaway protection than most other brands

described as a little better protection than Pittsburgh plastic

the best (highest) of all 11 brands, won this test outright, attributed to a steel bar located just behind the wheel

described as the least amount of force of any brand, the weakest result in this test

described as looking and performing a lot like the Pittsburgh steel ramps

resolved from a transcript line reading 'the Lincoln ramps... performed a little bit better at 726.4 pounds', which is almost certainly a caption mangling of 'Likeem', resolved by elimination since it is the only untested brand remaining at that point in the sequence before Val Wag

described as pretty good; cheapest brand tested

described as pretty good

described as performing well without kicking out

described as by far the best of all brands, winning this test outright

second place overall in this test

described as looking very stable but noticeably taller than most other brands

resolved from a transcript line reading '[Peterson] brand steel ramps held back the Ford Ranger for a while, but finally gave up at 683.2 pounds', where the brand name itself appears to have been dropped from the caption, resolved by elimination since Pittsburgh Steel was already covered earlier in this test at 727 lb and Peterson is the only other steel-ramp brand

rated 4,000 lb each; one ramp experienced small damage but did not collapse

rated 5,000 lb each; held up really well with no visible weak areas

rated 6,500 lb per pair, handled the 7,750 lb load just fine

rated 10,000 lb per pair, held up great under the load

rated 3,000 lb each; held up better than BiSupply, with one ramp beginning to bend but not crack

rated 2,000 lb each; held up fine with no damage

rated 2,500 lb each; held up better than some ramps with higher weight ratings

rated 6,000 lb per pair; the 7,750 lb load was a little too much and one ramp experienced a crack in the plastic, though it did not collapse

held up just fine under the load

rated 2,000 lb each, the same as Pittsburgh Steel; collapsed under the 7,750 lb load, the only brand in the video to fully collapse in this test; the narrator notes 'a little more steel would have really helped'

reached a peak force of almost 25,500 lb before beginning to collapse, described as the strongest ramp of all 11 tested and looking remarkably good afterward; won this test outright at well over 25,000 lb

in this section the narrator states a rated capacity of 'just 3,300 lb', which conflicts with the three-ton (6,000 lb) capacity claimed earlier in the video; kept verbatim as two different stated figures rather than resolved. Performed at over 20,000 lb, more than its stated rating, with quite a bit of damage; the test was held longer than most other brands

rated 3,250 lb; reached over 19,000 lb before the test was stopped early to avoid flying metal objects, so the true failure point was not reached; described as performing about six times better than its rating

reached almost 24,000 lb, described in the transcript as 'almost five times its rated capacity'; this only reconciles with the per-pair 10,000 lb claim if the press test loaded a single ramp at its per-ramp rating of roughly 5,000 lb (24,000 / 5,000 is approximately 4.8x), which is the reading used here; the ramp showed some damage but still looked usable

rated 3,000 lb; collapsed at almost 22,000 lb; the narrator kept this test running longer than most other brands, causing more damage

rated 2,000 lb; performed better than expected, beginning to bend around 7,000 lb and reaching a peak force of 9,000 lb before finally collapsing

rated 2,500 lb; performed at over 14,000 lb, with quite a bit of damage

rated 3,000 lb per ramp; performed at almost 15,000 lb, with quite a bit of damage

began bending around 7,000 lb when the hydraulic ram itself began bearing the load; reached more than 23,000 lb before the test was ended early for safety reasons, so the true failure point was not reached; quite a bit of structural damage was noted

of clearance, described as plenty; performed great

of clearance, described as plenty; performed very well with no problems

of clearance; performed well with only a small amount of movement once the vehicle was directly on top; the rubber stops were noted as already falling off

the old Buick 'made it up and down the ramps without a problem'

has six rubber stops (tied with Black Widow for the most of any brand); the Buick rolled up and down without any problems; the exact clearance figure was not clearly captured in the transcript ('with [inches] of clearance')

of clearance; the narrator did not use the brakes while descending and the ramps shot out from underneath the front wheels, causing minor damage to both the car and the ramps; the narrator attributes this to having only one rubber stop, located at the front of the ramp

offered barely enough clearance; small amount of contact on the way up and small ramp movement at the top; the ramp nearly became a projectile on the way down but the narrator applied the brake just in time

explicitly skipped: 'Let's get the Peterson Ramps since there isn't enough clearance', consistent with its 8 in lift height being too tall for the low-clearance Buick
