A hydraulic jack is used to lift heavy loads by amplifying
force via a hydraulic system. The principle governing the
working of the hydraulic jack is Pascal’s Principle; the
pressure applied to a fluid stored in a container will be
distributed equally in all directions. Although we won’t be
lifting any cars here, this kit will allow you to experience
and understand the capabilities of this compact, yet
powerful system.
