Older Volvos, British junk, and some Germans had similar looking jacks.


Bingo

Found some that look very similar on fleabay. I was searching for 'antique' and should have said 'vintage'

Like the Gopher sez-

Kent-Moore J-1280 Hydraulic Brake Line Tubing Flare Tool

Googled it. There's civilian and Mil-Spec versions.

Kind of obvious what they are, more curious about original intended use.

It's a gas can from circa 1960? Oh..
The jack!

Google Foo says it is a railroad jack, maybe 10ish ton. I was able to make out "Duff Manufacturing" on the side. I was really expecting it to be some kind of beer related equipment, pretty disappointed in the reality!

Ok, the ‘Beer related’ expectation took me a minute. LoL Good One...

Don't know the name of it but it can be used to spread something, or pull something together.

Of the various ‘hooks’ on this thing, none are of the link lock type for chain. It doesn’t show real well, but the faces of the squared ends are ‘serrated’ I’m assuming for grip on whatever.

The jack is like what was already said, a railroad or ratchet jack. They're referred to a lot as Simplex jacks as Simplex, along with Duff/Duff Barrett/Duff Norton were the larger manufacturers. They're pretty strong, usually 10-20 ton capacity in that compact size.

The bottom piece is called a push-pull jackscrew, or push-pull screw, or push-pull jack. Simplex is still in business and still manufactures both types of tools.

Hope this helps,

My neighbor found this in his shop while cleaning and has no idea what it is and I haven’t got a clue either.
Anybody know what it is?
