Description

For sale is a fantastic, highly collectible Vintage No. 150 Cast Iron Bevel Gear Screw Jack. Featuring an exposed interlocking tooth bevel gear design, this mechanical tool operates via a side-mounted crank socket with a square recess. It is cast with bold "NO. 150" lettering on the front of its bell-shaped housing and retains a beautiful, untouched dark-aged patina.

Historical & Mechanical Context:

Era & Origin: This is an early-to-mid 20th-century automotive mechanical jack, likely manufactured between the 1920s and 1950s. This specific "No. 150" model is a highly sought-after design famously produced by APAC, a prominent historic Australian automotive tool and garage equipment manufacturer.
Design Significance: Unlike typical internal hydraulic or bottle jacks, this antique tool utilizes a manual mechanical bevel gear drive combined with a central threaded screw shaft. Turning the side-mounted square drive socket turns the smaller drive pinion gear, which rotates the large horizontal bevel gear to smoothly raise or lower the load. This exposed open-gear mechanical aesthetic makes it incredibly popular for industrial styling.
Original Use: Heavy-duty jacks like this were originally supplied as standard emergency roadside equipment inside the toolkits of early classic vehicles, trucks, or vintage tractors of the era.

Perfect as a rugged display piece for a rustic man cave, industrial garage workshop, or as a unique conversation starter on a bar or bookshelf. It is in excellent, unrestored vintage condition with great historical character. Please review all photos for exact cosmetic condition.

Logistics & Collection:

Local Pickup: Available for collection from Thornleigh, NSW 2120.
Postage: Happy to post anywhere in Australia or worldwide. Please contact me with your postcode for a tailored postage quote. Due to the solid 4kg cast iron build, it will be securely wrapped and boxed for safe transit
