Melco Replacement A Crutch for Axle Stands

The A crutch is the versatile everyday Melco head — shaped like the underside of a capital A, its walls rise then splay outward, so it seats either a flat subframe or a round axle. That makes it the all-rounder for cars and light commercials that lift on either.

The crutch is a load-bearing, safety-critical part and one of the key inspection points on a stand. If yours is bent, cracked or worn at the seat, fit the correct Melco replacement to bring the stand back to conformity. Forged and finished in Sheffield from the correct grade and thickness of structural steel.

Select your stand above. This A crutch fits the AS/20 and AS/30.
