Fadbudss 2-pack 65mm rubber jack pads
These small pads make a surprisingly big difference when you’re lifting a car. They sit on the saddle of a trolley or floor jack and protect the vehicle’s pinch welds, frame and paint from scratches and dents. Handy to keep in the boot or workshop, they prevent metal-on-metal contact and give a better grip so the car stays put while you’re working under it.
What it does
It’s straightforward – the pad provides a cushioned, anti-slip interface between the jack saddle and the car. The slotted round design helps centralise the saddle and spreads the load more evenly across the lifting point. That means fewer marks on the bodywork and a steadier, safer lift. Not rocket science, just proper, practical kit — ideal for changing tyres, tackling brakes or any underbody tinkering.
Key features
- 65mm diameter fits most standard jack saddles and lifting pads.
- High-quality rubber for durability and resistance to wear in a busy garage environment.
- Slotted, non-slip surface improves stability and reduces the risk of slipping.
- Lightweight and compact – easy to stash in a toolbox or glovebox.
- Sold as a 2-pack, so you’ve got a spare or one for each jack in the workshop.
How to use
Pop the pad onto the jack saddle, then position the jack under the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended lifting point. Make sure the pad is seated correctly in the saddle slot and that the vehicle’s lift point aligns with the pad centre. Raise the jack slowly and check stability as you go — a careful lift saves a lot of stress. Once you’re done, give the pad a wipe with a damp cloth (a dab of soap if it’s greasy) and store somewhere dry.
Specifications and care
- Material: rubber, designed to withstand routine wear and common workshop fluids.
- Pad diameter: 65mm (approx. 2.56 inches).
- Pack contents: 2 x rubber jack pads; package dimensions 16 × 12 × 3.5 cm; package weight about 200 g.
- Compatibility: works with most trolley jacks, floor jacks and some vehicle lifts. If in doubt, check your jack saddle size before purchase.
- Important safety note: pads protect surfaces and improve grip but do not increase the load capacity of a jack — always use equipment rated for your vehicle, use wheel chocks and axle stands where appropriate, and follow safe lifting practices.
Some people ask if these pads fit very large or offset jack saddles — they suit most standard saddles, but for oddball jacks it’s best to measure the saddle and compare with the 65mm size. No faffing about with complicated fittings; these simply sit on the saddle and do the job. A small, inexpensive addition that cuts down on panic and paint damage during roadside jobs or routine maintenance — a proper bonus when the weather’s grim and your hands are freezing.
