Triumph NTO-16 16,000 lb Two-Post Overhead Auto Lift — ISO 9001 / CE Certified
The Triumph NTO-16 is a 16,000 lb capacity two-post overhead lift built for shops servicing heavy trucks, dual-rear-wheel vans, and large diesel pickups that put smaller lifts at the edge of their rating. Engineered and manufactured to ISO 9001 and CE Certified / Compliant standards, it pairs direct-drive cylinders with single-point lock release and an electrical override automatic safety shut-off so the operator stays in control through every cycle. Truck adapters and mounting hardware ship included in the standard kit.
Why It's Different: The NTO-16 slots between the 10,000 lb NTO-10A and the 20,000 lb NTO-20S, giving heavy-duty shops a 16,000 lb option without jumping to the largest (and most demanding) frame. The overhead design routes the equalizer cables across the top crossbar, keeping the floor between the columns clear for jacks and tooling, and the overhead shut-off bar prevents over-lifting.
Best For: Commercial and heavy-duty shops lifting full-size trucks, dual-rear-wheel vans, large diesel pickups, and service vehicles that exceed a standard 10,000–12,000 lb 2-post — but don't need the full 20,000 lb frame.
⚠️ Requires a 220V circuit for the 3 HP motor. Confirm the service is in place before installation day — running a new circuit after the lift is anchored adds cost. Verify single-phase vs three-phase for your shipment.
⚠️ Concrete and clearance: install on a 6" slab rated to 3,000 PSI minimum, with 165" (≈13.75 ft) overall height clearance and 142" of base width. Improper concrete at 16,000 lb can cause serious injury or death.
⚠️ Vehicle balance is critical on any two-post lift — the load rests on the arm pads, not the wheels. Reference the vehicle's lifting points, seat all four arms on solid contact points, and engage the locks before working underneath. Trained operators only.
⚠️ Ships LTL freight with NO liftgate — you'll need a forklift, Bobcat, tractor, tow truck, or backhoe to unload; the driver does not unload it. If you can't unload on-site, the carrier can hold it at the nearest freight terminal for trailer pickup.

16,000 lbs — The Step Between 10,000 and 20,000
Most shops servicing dual-rear-wheel vans and large diesel pickups run a 10,000 or 12,000 lb lift at the edge of its rating. The NTO-16 gives real headroom for those vehicles without jumping to the 20,000 lb frame, which demands more slab, more ceiling, and more money than most heavy-duty shops need.
Up to 16,000 lb
Dual-rear-wheel vans and trucks
Between the NTO-11A and NTO-20S
Clear Floor with Overhead Cut-Off Protection
Equalizer cables route across the top crossbar, so the floor between the columns stays open for jacks, transmissions, and tool carts under a raised truck. An overhead shut-off bar and electrical override stop the lift before a tall vehicle contacts the crossbar, and a single-point release disengages both columns in sync when lowering.

Direct-Drive Cylinders with Truck Adapters Included
Direct-drive cylinders lift without chains or screw drives to wear or service, reaching full 72" height in 40 seconds. Arms reach from 32" to 50" and drop to 7" lowered, so the lift still handles sedans and crossovers between truck jobs. Truck adapters and mounting hardware ship in the standard kit rather than as an upcharge.
72 in rise in 40 sec
Arms 32–50 in, 7 in lowered
Truck adapters included
