Inflatable Airbag Landing Heavy Lifting Rubber Airbag Boat Lift Air
Bags
Heavy lifting air bags, known as marine rubber airbags or ship
launching balloons, are made of heavy-duty synthetic-tire-cord
layers with inner and outer rubber layers in a long cylindrical
balloon shape.
The heavy lifting airbag is updated based on the ship launching
airbags, making them more suitable for heavy lifting and moving
work. These airbags have a different structure from ship launching
airbags and can roll steadily when taking the load, unlike inferior
products which are prone to twisting.
As one of the toughest pneumatic lifting airbags available, they
can be used for heavy lifting and moving of huge structures,
caissons, buildings, and more. Each heavy lifting airbag can reach
a lifting capacity of over 1,000 tons.
Why Choose Marine Heavy Lifting Air Bags
Superior manufacturing and quality control processes from raw
material selection through the highly skilled production process
ensure reliable performance.
Heavy Lifting Airbags Performance
Lifting Capacity Principle
The bearing capacity of ship launching airbags is calculated based
on working pressure and contact area, with working pressure
determined by burst pressure and safety working factor.
Due to the flexibility of rubber airbags, contact area is affected
by various factors including carried ship condition and position
relative to gravity center during launching and landing, causing
bearing capacity to vary.
F=PS
S=π x (D-H)/2
Where:
F = bearing capacity
P = working pressure
S = contact area
P = percentage of deformation (%)
D = original diameter of the air bag (m)
H = height of the compressed air bag (m)

Classification of Heavy Lifting Airbags
Heavy lifting airbags are categorized by bearing capacity per meter
in length, with layer count determining Safety Working Pressure.
Custom types are available upon request.
- QP - Ordinary airbag with 3, 4 or 5 layers of cord fabric
- QG - High-bearing capacity with 6, 7, or 8 layers of cord fabric
- QS - Superhigh-bearing capacity with 9, 10, or more layers of cord
fabrics
Example: QG6/1.5*15
QG6: 6 layers cord fabric
1.5: diameter is 1.5m
15: length is 15m
