I looked at my Wal-Mart special and it is the same design, but with a much neater weld. It is rated at 2 tons. I will show those pictures to a certified welder.

Sometimes Wal-Mart does do well. I bought a heavy duty oil filter wrench that out performs one I bought off a tool truck which was breaking into pieces. At the plant they wrench those filters on without oil and they are terrible to get off. I needed a jack stand without any hydrocarbon exposure so I bought the Wal-Mart special.

I agree that China is very successful at exploiting greed. Their military stole my security clearance file. One of the counter arguments as regards the Vietnam war is that China secretly murdered 5 million people in the name of improving their society. The USA never talked about that because it would reveal intelligence penetration. So the capitalist industrial system has signed a pact with the devil. As far as China is concerned they are exploiting capitalist pigs.

Here is a picture of 3 ton rated stands from Snap On. I wonder where they came from?
