The original HPC air wedges won't let you down. I would get one Universal and one standard just in case you need a smaller size for a job?

Yeah definetly go for the HPC air wedges as I believe there pretty much the most reliable on the market. I've had a few "cheaper" wedges which tend to not inflate very well or have slight rips in the rubber after time...

Hello, I have the Locksmith Mag an independent trade journal delivered monthly, in this months issue they have a video demo of this in action useing the spread plate tool with air bag,

 

These are only meant for jammed mechs but work just as well for lock outs to gain entry.

 

Go to www.dciukk.co.uk/sad/ and use the pass word of " keep ".

 

Jay, i hope you dont mind me showing an out side link on here.

 

Bye for now,

Kirk.
