Vehicle repair tools and service equipment are used for vehicle maintenance, repair, assembly, disassembly, lifting, support and workplace organisation. This section includes hand tools, tool sets, jacks, tool trolleys, hydraulic equipment, pneumatic, electrical and cordless tools, work lamps and other equipment used in daily service work.

Before choosing a specific product group, consider the type of work, the vehicles being serviced, workload, available equipment and workplace setup. Routine maintenance often requires basic tool sets, work lamps and tool trolleys, while engine, suspension, brake, transmission or lifting tasks require more specialised tool groups.

Tools for repair, maintenance and assembly work

Garages, service companies, fleets and transport businesses use tools for many different tasks - from tightening fasteners and replacing parts to leak detection, fluid collection, battery service, lifting and safe vehicle support. For that reason, it is better to start with the service task, not with a single model.

For daily hand tools, use the tools and tool sets section. For compressed air work, use the pneumatic tools section. For mobile work without a cable, use the cordless tools section. Lifting, support and heavier component handling are covered by separate groups for jacks, axle stands, hydraulic equipment and winches.

Tool groups by service task

• Battery chargers and starters - for battery charging, testing, starting support and voltage maintenance during service work.
• Tool trolleys - for storing, organising and moving tools around the working area.
• Smoke leak detectors - for finding leaks in intake, exhaust, vacuum and other vehicle systems.
• Waste oil collection equipment - for collecting, draining and transferring oil, lubricants and technical fluids.
• Hydraulic equipment - for pressing, lifting, spring compression and other service tasks.
• Trolleys and seats for mechanics - for easier work near vehicles and in lower working positions.
• Automotive and other jacks - for lifting vehicles during repair and maintenance work.
• Engine stands and lifts - for removing, moving, holding and repairing engines.
• Tools and tool sets - for hand tools, wrench sets, sockets, screwdrivers and specialised repair tools.
• Pneumatic tools - for compressed air tools used in intensive service work.
• Cordless tools - for mobile work where cable-free access is important.
• Electrical tools - for grinding, polishing, cutting, drilling and other technical tasks.
• Torque wrenches - for tightening bolts and nuts with a specified torque value.
• Lifting and pulling winches - for lifting, pulling and moving tasks.
• Vices - for holding parts securely during repair, assembly or processing work.
• Axle stands - for supporting vehicles after lifting.
• Work lamps - for lighting service areas, under-vehicle spaces and technical rooms.
