  • Safety orange color so it can be identified and will not get lost
  • Has a hole so that it can be tied to the Car Jack or Jack Stand
  • Pennsy’s pad will not become brittle in the cold, and will maintain its shape after repeated use
  • Grooves in the part create a non-slip surface to prevent the car from slipping off the jack
