Autoxbert 1.45in universal bottle jack pad — rubber anti-slip adapter
Handy bit of kit that makes lifting a lot less stressful. This 37mm (1.45in) bottle jack pad is moulded from tough anti-slip rubber and sits neatly on the saddle of most 8 tonne to 10 tonne bottle jacks. It cushions the contact point, adds grip and helps stop chassis edges or pinch welds from getting bent or mangled when you’re lifting the car.
Why this matters
Using a bare bottle jack can mean metal-on-metal contact that scuffs, dents or even bends jacking points — and that’s a right faff to put right. A rubber pad acts as a buffer, spreads the load a touch and lowers the chance of damage. It’s especially useful on softer metals and classic cars with delicate pinch welds. The anti-slip surface gives extra traction so the car is less likely to move while raised — though do remember to work on a level surface and follow basic safety routine.
Features and benefits
- Precise fit: 37mm recess on the underside for most 8T/10T bottle jack saddles, so it stays put when you lift.
- Strong but forgiving rubber: copes with heavy loads while cushioning the contact area to protect the chassis.
- Anti-slip surface: adds grip and confidence during jacking operations.
- Compact and lightweight: slips into the boot or a workshop drawer, ideal for quick jobs or regular garage use.
- Simple to use: drop the pad onto the jack saddle, lower it into the jacking point and you’re off — nice and straightforward.
Typical use cases
- Routine tyre changes and roadside repairs where a bottle jack is used.
- Garage or home workshop jobs where preserving jacking points matters.
- Owners of lowered, lightweight or classic cars with fragile pinch welds.
Practical bits: the pad weighs around 109 g and each package contains one pad. It’s designed to suit most 10 tonne and 8 tonne bottle jacks, but if you’re unsure have a quick measure of your saddle diameter first. This won’t replace proper axle stands — once the vehicle’s up, always use stands for safety. All told, it’s a small, inexpensive upgrade that avoids needless damage and saves a lot of worry — especially in winter when roadside jobs are the last thing you want to be doing.
