Heavy Duty Suction Cup- Twin Drum
Magicretes range of Heavy Duty Suction Lifters Cup -Twin Drum. By attaching the suction cups to a flat surface, typically heavy format tiles or glass, you can then use it as a handle for moving objects of varying weights and sizes. Suction lifters reduce the risk of damage when moving delicate materials, meaning you are able to move more difficult objects more frequently.

Magicrete Heavy Duty Suction Cup - Twin Drum: Double Pad Tile Lifter
The Magicrete Heavy Duty Twin Drum Suction Cup is a professional-grade vacuum lifter designed to transform heavy, awkward materials into easily manageable loads. By engaging the dual rubber suction pads against flat, non-porous surfaces, it creates a highly secure lifting handle, allowing masons and glaziers to safely transport, position, and install heavy format tiles and architectural glass.
The Financial Impact on Your BOQ (Bill of Quantities)
Mandating the use of mechanical suction lifters for large-format materials directly mitigates extreme on-site financial and safety risks:
- Material Breakage Prevention: Large format tiles (e.g., 800x1600mm) and heavy glass panes are incredibly fragile during transit and positioning. Twin drum lifters provide absolute control, drastically reducing the risk of dropping and shattering high-value materials.
- Manual Handling Safety: Gripping large slabs by their sharp edges causes severe hand injuries and back strain. This tool provides an ergonomic, secure handle, reducing worker fatigue, lowering workplace injury liabilities, and increasing the frequency at which difficult objects can be moved.
Mandatory Site Execution Guidelines
To ensure absolute vacuum integrity and prevent catastrophic drops, site teams must strictly follow these lifting protocols:
- Surface Decontamination: The suction cups will completely fail if applied to a dirty surface. The tile or glass surface, as well as the rubber suction drums, must be completely wiped clean of dust, water, and oil before engagement.
- Non-Porous Substrates Only: These lifters are designed exclusively for flat, smooth, non-porous surfaces like polished vitrified tiles, glass, and smooth metals. Never attempt to use them on highly textured, 3D, or porous stone surfaces, as the vacuum seal will instantly break.
