Jet Craft Aviation Gulfstream G-200 Jack Pads - JC200-GSK-0005
The Jet Craft Aviation JC200-GSK-0005 - Gulfstream G-200 Jack Pad Kit is an aircraft specific jack pad set designed to create a secure, correctly sized interface between your aircraft jack and the approved lifting points on the Gulfstream G-200 airframe. These jack pad adaptors help distribute load correctly during lifting, reducing the risk of point damage, jack slippage, and maintenance delays during inspections, tire and brake work, gear swings, and scheduled hangar events.
Jet Craft Aviation builds precision, OEM equivalent aircraft maintenance tooling focused on safety, accuracy, and repeatability. For business aviation operators, MROs, FBOs, and flight departments, the right jack pads are a core part of safe aircraft jacking procedures. Outside aviation, similar jack adapter concepts are used by industrial maintenance teams wherever a controlled lifting interface is required.
Kit contents
- Compact protective storage case for organized transport and FOD control
- Aircraft specific nose and main jack pad adaptors sized for the designated jacking points
- Three Remove Before Flight flags for positive visual control
Features and benefits
- Engineered for Gulfstream G-200 fitment to align with the aircraft jacking geometry and contact surfaces.
- Corrosion resistant construction intended for long service life in hangar and line maintenance environments.
- Provides positive engagement at the jack point to improve stability and reduce the chance of pad walkout during lift.
- Helps protect sensitive structural areas by keeping the jack load where the OEM intended.
- Supports faster setup for routine maintenance events by keeping the correct adaptors staged and labeled.
How it is used
Install the correct nose and main jack pads at the designated jacking points to match the aircraft receptacle and the jack head interface. Lift the aircraft only in accordance with the Aircraft Maintenance Manual using properly rated tripod or axle jacks and approved safety stands. Always verify correct pad selection, orientation, and full seating before applying load, then monitor for movement as weight transfers to the jacks.
Safety and compliance notes
- Confirm jacking procedures, lift points, and required safety equipment in the Aircraft Maintenance Manual before use.
- Use a flat, level surface and properly rated jacks, safety stands, and wheel chocks.
- Inspect the jack pads for damage, deformation, and contamination prior to each use. Remove from service if compromised.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The JC200-GSK-0005 Jack Pad Kit is specially engineered for Gulfstream G200 aircraft, matching the OEM-designated jacking points and structural hardpoints used during maintenance lifts. Using model-specific pads ensures the load is transferred correctly through the aircraft structure. Always verify jack pad compatibility with the airframe’s maintenance manual before lifting.
Aircraft-specific jack pads provide a precise interface between the jack and the aircraft’s structural jacking points, reducing the risk of damage to skins, gear fittings, or fuselage hardpoints. Generic or incorrectly matched pads can introduce uneven pressure, leading to dents, scratches, or worse structural stresses. Proper jack pad use improves safety and reduces the likelihood of maintenance-related incidents.
The JC200-GSK-0005 kit typically includes nose and main jack pads sized and shaped specifically for the G200’s lifting points, along with protective storage trays or cases to organize the components. Many kits come with “Remove Before Flight” streamers to help ensure pads are not inadvertently left installed. Organized storage helps crews keep tooling controlled and ready for service.
While the pad kit is intended for use with properly rated tripod or axle jacks, it must be paired with a jack that meets the Gulfstream G200’s weight and load requirements. Using undersized or incompatible jacks can compromise stability or lead to unsafe lifting angles. Always check both the jack’s capacity and AMM guidance when planning a jacking operation.
Yes! Properly matched jack pads like those in the JC200-GSK-0005 kit help distribute compressive loads directly at reinforced lift points, reducing the risk of surface damage to non-structural skin panels. This precise contact also helps prevent concentrated stress that could otherwise lead to dents or cracking. Protecting aircraft surfaces during lifts preserves value and reduces costly cosmetic repairs.
Before each use, visually inspect the jack pads for cracks, corrosion, dents, or worn contact surfaces that could affect fit or stability. Ensure pads are clean and free from dirt or debris that might prevent full seating in the jack point receptacles. Any damaged components should be removed from service immediately; compromised pads can compromise a lift.
In addition to using the correct jack pad kit, technicians should use jack safety stands or locks, wheel chocks, and ensure the ground surface is level before lifting. It’s also critical to follow Gulfstream’s AMM procedures and use “Remove Before Flight” indicators to prevent post-maintenance oversights. Wearing appropriate PPE remains best practice throughout jacking operations.
Storing the jack pad components in their designated case or tray protects them from environmental elements, knocks, and corrosive hangar contaminants. Organized storage also makes pre-use inspection easier and reduces the chance of misplaced pieces. Good storage habits help maintain dimensional accuracy and performance over many service cycles.
While the primary function of the JC200-GSK-0005 kit is to support aircraft during jacking, correct load distribution at jacking points also improves stability during related tasks such as tire changes or brake inspections. With stable lifting, technicians can work more confidently on landing gear components. Always follow the aircraft’s service manual for combined jacking and component removal procedures.
Yes. Even high-quality jack pads are subject to wear from repeated service cycles and environmental exposure. Periodic checks for deformation, corrosion, and surface damage help catch issues before they affect performance. Pads showing signs of wear should be replaced promptly to maintain safe, reliable jacking operations.
