The GRABO Pro from BB Industries is equipped with a robust vacuum pump. The foam rubber vacuum seal on the GRABO Pro tool is strong and resistant to loss of vacuum pressure. Once the pressure pump is activated, it creates a strong suction and firmly attaches to any non-porous flat surface.
According to the company the suction is strong enough to hold firmly on loads as heavy as 375 lbs . In order to lift any slab of flat solid material, simply turn on the unit and place it straight on the surface. The GRABO Pro automatically monitors the vacuum and if vacuum pressure is lost the pump is automatically powered up until the vacuum pressure is restored.
The GRABO Pro-Lifter is designed for professionals. This tool is conveniently portable and handy. Living up to the promise of “Heavy Lifting – Made Easy”, the GRABO Pro is equally effective on smooth as well as coarse surfaces. The Pro-Lifter has a a best in class pumping capacity of 20 liters per minute.
Just like the classic version, the powerful vacuum pump and rechargeable battery pack are concealed within the grab handle. The handle is also equipped with a digital display that shows the maximum weight that the GRABO Pro can safely lift at any given moment. The weight is displayed in both pounds and kgs.
The Pro-Lifter is equipped with a smart digital pressure sensor. With a simple press of a button the lifting function is automatically activated and regulated. The sensor automatically provides for the optimum level of suction, keeping objects in complete control while being lifted or moved.
