Jet Craft Aviation Gulfstream G-5/G-550 Jack Pad Kit - JC5-550-GSK-0005

The Jet Craft Aviation JC5-550-GSK-0005 - Gulfstream G-5/G-550 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-500 and G-550 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-500 and G-550 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.
