Continuous research and testing bring you NEWTEC AIR PUSH pneumatic cushion. Made of a proprietary special fabric that outperforms traditional PVC, NEWTEC’s air cushion is lighter, more wear resistant, and guarantees better mechanical performance and safety levels.
The new range of NEWTEC air cushion is made of a thicker special fabric which enhances its wear resistance and guarantees better mechanical performance and safety levels.
More resistant on mechanical performance - More wear resistant - Increased airtightness - More wrinkle resistant - More tear resistant

The material is repeatedly flexed to verify the behavior of the fabric fibers and of the exterior coating under repeated loads. The material can be folded, thus opened and closed between the marble sides, more reliably
|
Wear and tear resistance
|
Weight loss during test
|
No weight loss during test
|
The material undergoes a wear and tear test in which a pad is pressed and rubbed against it. Our material guarantees a more reliable use, since it is considerably less subject to damages

Accessories for cushion AIR PUSH
Pneumatic power pack
Thanks to our air supply system, you can independently inflate, deflate, and hold the air of up to four cushions, with instantaneous pressure level detection.
Pressure can be adjusted progressively and, thanks to a check valve, each cushion can be inflated and deflated even while the marble is being detached from the mountain side. This eliminates any chance of explosion.
The POWER PACK Kit includes:
- Control panel (man portable stainless steel)
- Support stand (foldable tripod)
- Inflation / deflation pressure gauges
- Inflation / deflation control valves
- Pressure regulator
- N.1 20 ATM 13x23 tube
- N.4 20 ATM 10x19 tubes
- N.2 20 ATM 6x14 tubes
Optional accessories:
- Fast deflation kit (VENTURI TUBE): system complete with M/F connections, inlet-oulet detection valves, fittings and connection pipes
- 20 ATM 10x19 Y tube complete with push in fittings
