A pneumatic Balloon Jack, also known as an airbag jack, is a device that uses compressed air to expand the airbag and lift heavy objects. Simply put, it works like blowing a balloon, but this "balloon" is super strong and can lift the entire SUV, truck, and even engineering equipment.

It is particularly suitable for lifting operations in fast, temporary, and harsh terrains - such as tire replacement, chassis repair, off-road rescue, and even search and rescue work at earthquake sites.

Don't be misled by the word "balloon", the Pneumatic Balloon Jack is quite solid:Multi-layer reinforced airbag: not ordinary rubber, but high-pressure and high-strength industrial rubber, usually three or four layers, compression and wear resistance.Solid base and top plate: provide stable support and are not easy to slide.

Intake valve and exhaust device: connect compressed air and control lifting and lowering with one button.

Wheel handle design (some styles): just pull it and move it easily.


3. How does it "lift things"?

The working principle is actually very simple, but the effect is amazing:

Connect to a compressed air source (such as an air pump);

Open the air intake valve, and the airbag starts to "blow";

The airbag swells and lifts up the things you want to lift;

When you need to put it down, open the exhaust valve and slowly descend.

The whole operation takes less than 10 seconds, it is simple, fast, and safe!


4. Where can it be used?
