    Lift and position windows, large metal sheets, and even solar panels scratch free. These lifters connect to a crane or hoist and use suction cups to grip material. This makes them more gentle than tongs or plate clamps that can scratch delicate surfaces. For precise positioning, you can tilt these lifters up to 90° and rotate them 180°. As you rotate them, you can lock them at 45° increments. To prevent shifting during installation, they’ll automatically lock at 90°.
    The battery-powered vacuum pump generates and maintains strong suction. If suction is lost, the pump senses it and automatically reactivates to maintain grip. A vacuum gauge lets you monitor pressure to stay within safe operating limits. If the pump runs out of battery during a lift, these lifters have a vacuum reserve tank that allows them to maintain grip and support the load for at least five minutes. Each lifter includes a battery gauge and a charger.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

    For Smooth Surfaces

    Cups—Vacuum cups for smooth and textured surfaces will grip stone slabs, pebbled fiberglass, and textured tiles. They have a sealing ring that resists abrasive particles. Keep in mind, they have a lower lifting capacity than vacuum cups designed for smooth surfaces only.

    Suction-Cup Holders Shown In Use

    Temporarily hold glass, metal, or plastic panels and sheets while you work on them. A residue-free alternative to duct tape, these holders use suction to hold a panel or sheet. Loop the cord over hooks, nails, or framing to suspend your workpiece. Pull tabs on the cups make removal easy. Each pack includes two holders—use on each corner for a more secure hold.
