WinGrip® Portable Aircraft Fall Protection System

Aircraft maintenance demands flexible fall protection solutions that can adapt to different aircraft types, changing work locations and environments where permanent overhead systems are impractical or unavailable.

The WinGrip Portable Aircraft Fall Protection System provides temporary anchorage using patented vacuum technology, enabling maintenance personnel to work safely at height without modifying the aircraft or installing permanent infrastructure. The system can be deployed quickly and repositioned as maintenance activities progress, making it ideal for both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance operations.

Designed for airlines, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) organisations, aircraft manufacturers and defence operators, WinGrip supports maintenance activities on commercial aircraft, business jets, military aircraft and other aviation platforms.

The WinGrip family includes three complementary solutions:

• WinGrip A1X – Lightweight portable vacuum anchor for rapid deployment and single-user applications.
• WinGrip Multi-User – Flexible system supporting multiple technicians during large aircraft maintenance operations.
• WinGrip Barrier – Portable barrier system for creating safe exclusion zones around maintenance work.

Whether working on aircraft wings, fuselage, tail sections or elevated structures, WinGrip helps maintenance teams work efficiently while maintaining flexibility across changing maintenance tasks.
