Type BR Airlift Recovery System

The MFC Series BR Airlift Cushion recovery system is built for heavy duty lifting. The broad surface area of MFC Survival's air lifting bags ensure their suitability for exerting uniformly distributed lift pressure. This enables their use against accepted weak parts of vehicles e.g. sides, roof, wings, bonnet and boot. These Airlift cushions can also be used with light aircraft recovery and the rescue of animals bogged down in pits or ponds. The height of lift enhances access possibilities for medical attention or extrication after ensuring chocks are in position.

Airlift Type BR

Unique in shape, the Series BR Airlift Cushion has distinct compartments with separate input giving the operator a variety of options, ensuring complete control during the lifting process.

The series BR Airlift Cushions are built for heavy duty operations featuring:

  • 5mm thick 3-ply working surfaces.
  • Side walls of heavy duty neoprene coated nylon with external reinforcing bands.
  • Internal web restraints.
  • Rings fitted to sides for securing.
  • Two delivery hoses complete with claw couplers to each compartment.
