What is a car creeper

A creeper, also known as a car creeper, garage creeper, or mechanic creeper, is a low-profile, wheel-driven platform that allows a person to slide under a car for maintenance or inspection. Creepers are designed to reduce the amount of height added above the ground, allowing for more clearance and reducing strain on the back and neck.

Usually made of high-strength plastic, metal and other materials, the shape is generally rectangular, with the following characteristics and uses:

Features

Low design:

The overall height is low, which is convenient for maintenance personnel to work in the narrow space under the vehicle and can easily slide under the vehicle.

Flexible movement:

The bottom is generally equipped with universal wheels, which are flexible to turn, and maintenance personnel can move freely under the vehicle to reach different maintenance parts.

Good load-bearing capacity:

It adopts high-quality materials and reasonable structural design, which can bear the weight of maintenance personnel and some maintenance tools to ensure safe use.

Purpose

Convenient operation:

Maintenance personnel can easily enter the bottom of the vehicle by lying on it, and inspect, repair and maintain the vehicle chassis, engine, transmission and other components, such as changing engine oil, inspecting the brake system, and checking suspension components.

Reducing fatigue:

Compared with lying directly on the ground or working under the vehicle in an uncomfortable posture, lying on the lying board can support the body of maintenance personnel to a certain extent, reduce fatigue from long-term work, and improve work efficiency.
Casters: Smooth-rolling casters can provide mobility and reduce vibration
Padding: Durable padding can provide comfort
Headrest: A headrest can help save the neck
Tool tray: A tool tray can provide storage space
