George Radion in Australia has a database on Australian-made Jacks

This database is for vintage and classic Tangye vehicle jacks. Many of the photos and comments have been gleaned from Ebay and other sites.  I would be pleased to add photos and comments from anyone who has information on these jacks.

Tangye jacks have been produced in the UK since 1856 and are now one of the brands manufactured by Allspeeds Limited, based in Clayton-le-Moors, Lancashire. For any further information regarding the range of jacks available, please visit Tangye Hydraulic Jacks & Pump | Hydralite | Hydramite | Hydraclaw (allspeeds.co.uk) - 15 June 2022.

Tangye bought the Shelley business in the late 60s.  Some Tangye jacks have both names cast into them and are, therefore, also shown in the Shelley Database.

Please note that this information is accurate to the best of my knowledge, but I make no claims about authority on this subject. Use your own discretion when evaluating the accuracy of the information.

The values are normally taken from auction sites world-wide, but exclude postage.

Request to vendors: Please feel free to use the information from these databases in your adverts. An acknowledgement of the source would be most welcome. However, please do not twist any of the information. Where I say along the lines: 'May be for car X' please make this clear in your advert. An altered statement saying: 'It is for car X' will create false facts and misinformation. If you know for certainty a jack's heritage please contact me so that I can amend the entry. Thank you.

Description:

The jack measures 7.5" retracted and 15.5" extended. It weighs 10.5 lbs. It is dual screw. The jack base is curved across its width, presumably allowing it to tilt slightly during the vehicle lifting process. Photos courtesy of Mike Nicholls.

My own LJ263 also has the code 9.D.15 cast into the right hand gusset of the bottom photo.  This appears to be in a similar sequence to another jack listed above.  I am trying to ascertain if these codes are for land Rover jacks.  All information welcome.

For comparison the third photo shows the LJ263 and LJ264 alongside. The LJ264 (left of the two) has a larger base measuring 6" x 3.5". The LJ 263 base measures 5" x 3.5". Photo and information courtesy of NewMoody.

Axle Stands










Tangye Axle Stands

Description

These are a pair of axle stands perhaps for farm vehicles. They are cast TANGYE on one side and No.3 "SS" TYPE on the other. They measure 42 cm high. The bases are 17cm x 12cm.  Photos, measurements and casting detail courtesy of Heidi Beaty.

Howard Richter made the the very valid observation that they appear to be designed with the rounded heels so that the operator could engage the axle tube in the jaws of the stands and then gently draw the implement, cart, etc. forwards, thereby pulling the stands upright and lifting the axle up slightly.

Any further information most welcome.

Applicable Vehicles:

Possibly agriculural vehicles.
