[mikeyR]

Where sells low profile floor jacks, for lowered vehicles?

[fokhan_96]

Allied and Dansteel has. They're a bit expensive though. The price for the 1" was between $300-400. Dont know for larger sizes but they only had 1 or 2 left. If you not in a hurry, better off ordering online.

what size expansion rawl bolts would be recommended for 50lb TV hung of concrete block wall ?
M6 or M8 and depth ?

Blocks loaded? M8 would work fine

If blocks aren’t loaded then I’ll suggest going through the blocks and get some long nut and bolts.

Wouldn't the expanding part of the boot and up in the void area? All your holes won't line up at joints.

Those are waaaay overkill for a tv anyway. I usually use orange wall anchors. Most brackets come with flimsy anchors anyway.

50lb TV + Bracket weight
Moving of bracket to clean, view, also the type of bracket that was bought (there are those that mount horizontally and those that are vertically)
Think long term.

No such thing as over kill to secure the TV.
How Dare you?

I used m8s on loaded concrete.
6 on the 55- but that bracket extends out and the TV is at a 30degree angle to the wall
no issues-just measure 3 times -drill once.

Rawl specs the safe working load at 3.3 kN (about 330 kg) for M6 and 4.8 kN (about 480 kg) for M8 in concrete block. The failure load is three times that.

I would use 4 M6 for double redundancy.

bought 48 of the m6 rawl bolts today at allied
need to get a 1/2" bit for my hilti sds max
but they not cheap
might be time to buy one of them sds plus hammer drills everybody using now, bits for them cheapish

There is an adapter for SDS Max to Plus. A less expensive, lighter weight, corded SDS Plus rotary hammer is the perfect tool for drilling into concrete block for smaller holes. With SDS Plus bits going for about $20 each you can save a bit of cash, too. The price for the SDS Plus rotary hammer may be not much more than the adapter.

when pugboy go in d hardware & ask "ah wa ah bit for meh hilti" at least is a real hilti machine he want it for ... lol ...

All I'm seeing you saying is he could use 1 bolt and then he and his wife could still stand on it.

Reminds me of the looks of disbelief i still get when people hear my 2 post lift is on 5 inches of concrete (the "readymix" variety, not hand).

Excellent drill. The 1.5 battery won’t be ideal for any heavy drilling. Could always upgrade to a 4.0

I installed the m6 bolts last week with the big hilti and a borrowed 1/2" sds max bit
real overkill

I ordered a sds plus cordless dewalt on ebay for $133usd, have plenty dewalt batteries to run it.

I have the corded 1 1/8" one like this. This thing is a beast and relatively light compared to others.

Try to buy your hoists and come-a-longs new. You never know what condition a used one is in, even if it looks cosmetically in good condition.
