HANDLING EQUIPMENT
Wood’s Powr-Grip® Offers Vacuum Cup for Windshields
A new tool for handling windshields, the LJ6VH hand-held vacuum cup, has
been introduced by Wood’s Powr-Grip in Laurel, Mont. The large-volume
pump of the hand cup permits quick attachment on both curved and flat
glass surfaces, according to the company, and a rigid, vertical handle
provides support for glass positioning, while non-slip grip holds the
glass securely at any angle.
In addition, to help reduce unexpected pop-offs, a red-line indicator
on the pump warns the user in case of vacuum loss, and a
special check valve allows re-pumping without the need to reattach the
cup. Lift tabs on the vacuum pad provide instant release, and each cup
is supplied with a protective pad cover.
