The locking cams rarely fail if used properly (unless they are old HF models). But they can be misused by raising the stand under the car and getting it lodged between clicks, which can somewhat hold the weight of the car - until it doesn't.
The locking pins of the better model guard against that and won't even go in unless the top part is in the correct position.

I got Husky model from Home Depot rated at 3 tons each. Work well for me on my ascent when I change oil and upgrading my led fog lights.
Many ppl misinterpret the rating on automotive jack stands.
Even tho the sticker on each jack may say "3 tons rating" that rating is for a PAIR of jack stands, not each individually.
That is how all automotive jack stands are rated & certified, as per ASME, which all the manufacturers abide by.
I assume my F-150 weighs close to 6,000lbs. Would you guys trust these since they're only holding a portion of the vehicle?
What percentage of that 6000lbs will be on the stands? 50%, 75%, 90% I really don't know the weight distribution of that vehicle and you probably don't either - so while you'll be within the range of these stands, you might be somewhat close to pushing the limits.
Even though you'll likely be safe with the 3 tonners, you may find the lift height to be somewhat inadequate, so you may want to consider bigger stands.

You dont really need safety pins.. you are fine without it. Ive never heard of somebody working on the car and suddenly jack stands fail
A number of years ago I did a lot of reading on car lifting accidents and a significant percentage of jack stand related crushings were due to the operator failing to adequately engage the cam. It scared the hell out of me when it happened to me once. I had already placed the stand under the truck but wanted a little more height so I jacked up the truck a bit more and lifted the jack stand post up to the frame, incorrectly thinking it was locked. I lowered the jack and the stand held, initially, but just a bit later it didn't. I wasn't under it and the wheel was still on, so really no big deal, but a damn good lesson to check that cam and make sure it's good and locked.
Double locking stands help to remove this possibility of user error.

Reason why I go with the higher ton rating for the lift height. Don't have to go to the max height compared to the 3 ton.

If you're wondering, the $23 version does NOT have the safety pins, while the $24 model DOES have the safety pins.

I own Harbor Freight PITTSBURGH AUTOMOTIVE 3 Ton Aluminum Jack Stands. I use them on my 1/2 ton pickup truck.

If I'm just changing oil, I break out the ramps. Safer and way easier than lugging the heavy steel Jack from the back yard shed.

In a pinch you can even use the included jack and the spare as a placeholder and just rotate.
