All you're looking for is something that is hard enough to hold the weight of the car but has a little give to it - specs aren't critical. Hockey pucks are just a cheap and readily available option to the higher-priced jack discs.

Also pucks are thinner. Most pinch weld adapters are very tall and don't leave much room to squeeze it and the jack under the car. Pucks are less than $1 each here.

I just lift at the pinch welds, never a problem, I do have 5/16 rubber pads on my hoist though...
