The proven standard worldwide — reliable, versatile, trusted by fire services on every continent.
Vetter mini lifting bags have earned their place as the global benchmark for vehicle extrication. Their low insertion height allows access to the narrowest gaps, while the rectangular shape reaches deep into confined openings. Use them to lift, push, press, prise or split — safely and reliably even on difficult inclines. Anti-slip surface profile performs on sand, grass and wet surfaces. Special safety coupling prevents hose disengagement under load.

| Shape options | Square and rectangular |
| Applications | Lift, push, press, prise, split |
| Surface grip | Anti-slip dimple profile |

The unbeatably flat first-aider — fits into gaps where no other rescue tool can reach.
With a super-flat insertion height of just 1.6 cm (0.6 inch), Vetter Ultra Flat bags are the first tool deployed at any crush rescue — creating initial space for larger rescue equipment. Their low air requirement means they are operational in seconds. Indispensable for vehicle underrun accidents, structural collapse and any scenario where load-bearing gaps are measured in millimetres.
| Insertion height | 1.6 cm (0.6 inch) |
| Working pressure | 8 bar (116 psi) |
| Inflation time | Seconds — minimal air volume required |
| Application | Initial lift for follow-on tools |
| Use cases | Vehicle underrun, collapse, entrapment |
