LIFTING BAGS – VETTER<br />
Vetter Lifting Bags do a superb job in emergencies. Usable in critical situations,<br />
when speed is of the essence. They are highly adaptable and ideal<br />
for raising loads with gentle power quickly to great heights. For more than<br />
30 years these robust, cushion-like Lifting Bags have stood the toughest of<br />
tests in rescue work with fire brigades and rescue services.<br />
Lifting Bags 1 bar<br />
Certified as to EN 13731:2008<br />

Advantages:<br />
• Large lifting height up to 110 cm<br />
• Same lifting force over the entire lifting range<br />
• Even distribution of load over the lifting surface and ground; no single<br />
point loaded more than 1000 g/cm2<br />
• Bags adapt to the contours of uneven ground – even rocks, rubble and rails<br />
• Highly flexible – gripping loads at the edge to lift and push simultaneously<br />
• Continuous, noiseless and jolt-free lift<br />
• Usable on slopes<br />
• Bag’s cylindrical shape gives optimum pressure distribution and allround<br />
stability<br />
• Special internal distance holders prevent top and bottom pates from<br />
bulging and protect the bags against damage from sharp edges<br />
• Dimpled surface on both top and bottom plates give the bags a better<br />
grip on soft ground<br />

• Easily repaired<br />
Safety:<br />
• Tested by TÜV-Rheinland<br />
• Type certification<br />
• Ongoing production control by TÜV-Rheinland inspector<br />
• Lowering rate (deflation) 1,85 cm/ sec (0,73 in./ sec)<br />
• Bursting pressures 3 to 4 times the maximum allowable working pressure<br />
