This AB Tools Aluminium Double Suction Lifter (TE344) is designed for professionals and DIYers needing to safely transport heavy, awkward items and sheet materials like glass, steel, or large panels. Its key benefit is providing a secure, temporary grip on smooth, non-porous surfaces, significantly reducing strain and risk of damage. A crucial caveat is its reliance on clean, smooth surfaces for effective adhesion; it is not suitable for textured or porous materials. This pack includes two lifters, each featuring 115mm suction pads with a robust 80kg lifting capacity and a durable aluminium body for longevity.

Each AB Tools Aluminium Double Suction Lifter has a maximum safe lifting capacity of 80kg.
No, these lifters require smooth, clean, and non-porous surfaces to create a reliable vacuum seal. They will not work on textured or porous materials.
You can safely lift materials like glass, polished metal sheets, large mirrors, high-gloss laminate, and smooth plastic panels, provided they are clean and flat.
This listing is for a pack of two AB Tools Aluminium Double Suction Lifters.
Clean the suction pads with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry completely before storage. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Even small amounts of dust or debris can compromise the vacuum seal, leading to loss of suction. Always ensure both the surface and the suction pads are spotless.
Only if the wood or stone has an extremely smooth, polished, and non-porous finish. Unfinished wood, rough stone, or concrete are not suitable surfaces.
Ensure the surface and the suction cup are perfectly clean and dry. Check for any debris or air leaks around the edge of the cup. Verify the surface is smooth and non-porous. Ensure the handle is fully engaged and locked.
Clean the handle mechanism. Ensure there is no obstruction. If the vacuum is too strong, try to release a small amount of air by slightly lifting the lever before fully disengaging.
Inspect the pads for cracks, tears, or hardening. If degradation is visible, the pads may need replacement, or the lifter should be retired from heavy-duty use.
Setup: To use, ensure the suction cups and the surface of the item to be lifted are clean and free from dust or debris. Place the suction cup firmly onto the surface, then press the handle down to engage the vacuum. The handle will lock, creating the suction. To release, flip the small lever on the side of the handle.
Compatibility: These lifters are compatible with any smooth, clean, non-porous surface. This includes glass, polished metal, high-gloss laminate, smooth plastic sheeting, and mirror surfaces. They are not compatible with wood, brick, concrete, textured plastics, painted surfaces, or any material that is not perfectly flat and sealed.
Care: After use, clean the suction pads with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry completely before storing. Store the lifters in their original packaging or a protective case to prevent damage to the rubber suction cups. Regularly inspect the suction cups for any signs of wear or damage, such as cracks or tears, which could compromise their lifting capacity.
