Inflatable Mounting Pillow WINBAG model 17596, lifting capacity min 70 kg

WINBAG inflatable mounting pillow model 17596 is a compact pneumatic lifting tool designed to create temporary gaps, lift small parts and align components during installation and repair tasks. With a minimum lifting capacity of 70 kg, this mounting pillow is suitable for controlled lifting and positioning in confined spaces where a precise, even lift is required. The lightweight construction and compact footprint allow it to be used where conventional jacks or levers would not fit.

Advantages

The WINBAG model 17596 offers stable, incremental lifting through inflation, enabling fine adjustments without sudden movements. Its compact size and flexible bladder make it usable in narrow or hard-to-reach areas, while the pneumatic operation reduces manual strain compared with purely mechanical tools. The design provides even pressure distribution under load, improving safety and helping prevent damage to delicate parts during alignment or separation.

Suitable for

• Lifting and creating gaps between panels and components in automotive repair
• Aligning doors, windows or frames during installation or adjustment
• Separating bonded or seized parts gently to allow insertion of tools
• Temporary support and positioning of light equipment and assemblies

When it may not be suitable

This inflatable mounting pillow has a minimum lifting capacity of 70 kg and is intended for light-duty tasks; it is not suitable for heavy lifting or for supporting large structures. It should not be used as a permanent support or substitute for certified load-bearing equipment. Use on sharp edges or in contact with hot surfaces may damage the bladder and should be avoided.

Key specifications

• Type: inflatable pneumatic mounting pillow
• Minimum lifting capacity: 70 kg
• Form factor: compact, flexible bladder suitable for narrow spaces
• Operation: inflation-driven controlled lift
• Primary applications: temporary gap creation, alignment, light lifting

How to use

Place the deflated WINBAG 17596 pillow between the surfaces to be separated or under the object to be lifted, ensuring contact areas are clean and free of sharp edges. Connect the inflation device or pump as specified by the manufacturer and inflate slowly while monitoring movement and alignment. Make small adjustments until the desired gap or position is reached. After use, fully deflate the pillow, check for any damage, clean the surface, and store in a dry place away from direct heat and sharp objects.

What to consider before purchase

• Required lifting capacity for your tasks (this model supports a minimum of 70 kg)
• Available clearance and whether a compact inflatable pillow can fit the working space
• Compatibility with your inflation equipment and safe inflation pressure range
• Risk of contact with sharp edges, abrasive surfaces or heat at the intended use site

Usage recommendations

Use gradual inflation and constant observation to control lifting precisely. Protect the bladder from sharp edges with a thin, rigid backing if necessary, and always use the WINBAG 17596 for temporary handling and alignment rather than permanent support.
