I added this and it works perfect! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These Linear Actuators are of OUTSTANDING quality! *by J***A on February 9, 2025* I’ve been using these linear actuators for more than three years. I use it for a wheelchair lift, to get my wheelchairs in and out of my car, so reliability is of the utmost importance!It is by far the most reliable piece of equipment I’ve seen for this purpose.Customer support and technical help is superb!I’m buying my second unit, not because the first one in any way is deteriorating, but I’m using a faster model. (It’s actually the same unit, with different gearing.)Again, if I could give them 6 stars, I would! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very solid build. Excellent drawings and documentation. Used for pickup truck handicap lift. *by K***R on November 4, 2023* The media could not be loaded. Installed on a lift that looks like a running board. The running board goes to the ground and up using a remote fob. A 300 pound person creates about 1000 pounds load on the linear actuator. My setup has a 1:3 ratio. I added 100 pounds to 900 to get to 1000 pounds. The 2000 pound actuator does the job with ease. I used the 8" stroke and added limit switches. This actuator replaces the obsolete HydraMotion cylinder S/N 11245. Motor marked PE270980 12VDC. Lift designed by Startrack(s) Lifts in Indiana in 2018. ## Frequently Bought Together - Progressive Automations 12V High Force Linear Actuator - 1 inch Stroke, 850 lbs Force, Industrial, Heavy Duty Linear Actuator with IP65 Protection for Agriculture Automotive Industry, PA-17 - Progressive Automations Mounting Bracket BRK-14 for Linear actuators PA-14, PA-14P, PA-01 - IndusTec Wired 20A 12V - DC Motor Polarity Reversing Rocker 3 Position DPDT Momentary Automatic Reset Switch (On)-Off-(On) 6 Pin DPDT Double Pole Double Throw --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/205982550-progressive-automations-12v-high-force-linear-actuator-1-inch-stroke](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/205982550-progressive-automations-12v-high-force-linear-actuator-1-inch-stroke) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-18*
