StakJak 12 Bar Lifting Bags
The StakJak high-pressure lifting bag is a revolutionary flat-profile lifting bag for vehicle and heavy duty lifting requirements. The flat profile of the StakJak has several distinct advantages over traditional ovoid lifting bags of which the most significant is the ability to safely stack up to three bags together. This enables a greater lift height without the risk of sudden ejection or instability that is possible when stacking ovoid bags. In addition, the StakJak high-pressure lifting bags are not subject to the diminishing lift capacity experienced with ovoid mats. Complicated graphs and uncertain lifting heights and capacities do not need to be considered when using a StakJak, as they can lift their full height capacity (5.4 - 45 tonne depending on model) throughout the entire lift. StakJak lifting bags slim profile allow for use in tight spaces and reduce storage requirements. High pressure lifting bags (also sometimes called lifting mats) are constructed from exceptionally tough Kevlar cord, yet are light enough to be carried by just one person. StakJak lifting bags can be inflated quickly to provide an instant lift, making them ideal for use in rapid response emergency situations. High pressure lifting bags of this type also have a controlled deflation facility if required, and can be supplied with an optional bleed valve on request. FEATURES • Flat profile avoids diminishing lift • Stack up three bags safely • Lightweight and compact • Controlled deflation facility • Significantly more stable than an ovoid lifting bag • Versatile - designed for emergency services but also used ining, railroads, armed forces, and caravan and static unit companies USED FOR • Road traffic incidents • Light aircraft crash • Rapid response rescue • Raising submerged vehicles and small craft COMPLIES WITH EN 13731:2007 (independently tested)

Powermat 12 Bar Lifting Bags
The Powermat is a heavy duty, high-pressure lifting bag designed primarily for lifting vehicles and objects in emergency situations. Deflated, the Powermat has a very slim profile making it suitable for use in restricted or awkward spaces and compact to store. Available in 13 standard sizes with maximum lifting capacities from 1.4 tonne right up to 93 tonne. Powermats inflate rapidly offering instant lift. The most convenient source of air supply for inflation is a BA cylinder or SCUBA bottle, alternatively a compressor, factory airline supply or a truck air brake supply can be used. Due to their rapid response capability Powermat high- pressure lifting bags are ideally suited to emergency rescue situations, however they are an exceptionally versatile piece of equipment that also has applications in urban search and rescue, industry, mining, railroad construction/maintenance and the armed forces. FEATURES • Slimline profile when deflated making it suitable for use in restricted or awkward places • Inflates rapidly offering and instant lift • Have a controlled deflation facility if required • Large lift capacity and height USED FOR • Road traffic incidents • Light aircraft crash • Rapid response rescue • Raising submerged vehicles and small craft COMPLIES WITH • EN 13731:2007 (independently tested)

1 Bar Lifting Bags
Our comprehensive range of 1 bar pressure airlift bags designed primarily for the recovery of vehicles. Invaluable at the scene of a road traffic incident or light aircraft crash, these lifting bags provide an exceptionally strong and steady lift to stabilize a vehicle and improve access to casualties. These bags have a large contact area which means they uniformly distribute lift pressure across a large surface area, making them suitable for lifting at weak points of a vehicle such as the roof, sides, wings, bonnet and boot. Depending on the circumstances these lifting bags may also be used in the rescue of animals or to raise submerged vehicles and small craft as well as many other heavy objects. FEATURES • Lightweight and easily portable • Provide a strong and steady lift to stabilize a vehicle and improve access to casualties • Exceptionally stable • Strong and durable • Non-slip top surface • Webbing loops assist with lifting and positioning the cushions, and can be used as anchorage points • Low maintenance costs • Large lift capacity and height • Controlled deflation capability • Pressure release valve to prevent over inflation • GEKA Couplings supplied as standard, other couplings available on request USED FOR • Road traffic incidents • Light aircraft crashes • Rescue of animals • Raising submerged vehicles and small craft
