Suction Cup for Glass AWTools AW29430 — 120 kg load capacity, single piece

The AWTools suction cup AW29430 is a single-piece glass handling tool rated for a 120 kg load capacity. It is designed to attach to smooth, non-porous surfaces such as glass, tiles and finished metal sheets, providing a temporary mechanical grip for lifting, positioning and carrying workpieces. The compact single-cup design is intended for use where a portable, non-permanent handling aid is preferred over fixed hardware or straps.

Advantages

The suction cup provides a secure, non-invasive grip without drilling or clamping, reducing the risk of surface damage. Its rated 120 kg capacity supports safe handling of medium-weight panels while keeping the tool simple and easy to transport. The single-piece construction minimizes moving parts and simplifies inspection and maintenance. The rubber sealing surface conforms to smooth substrates to maintain vacuum contact during typical glazing and installation operations.

Suitable for

• Installing and positioning glass panes and windows
• Moving tiles, mirrors and smooth metal sheets in workshops
• Temporary lifting and carrying of smooth non-porous panels on site
• Glazing, façade and fit-out tasks requiring a removable grip

Key specifications

• Load capacity: 120 kg
• Configuration: single suction cup (one piece)
• Compatible surfaces: smooth, non-porous materials such as glass, glazed tiles and finished metal
• Sealing material: flexible rubber sealing lip for vacuum contact
• Typical applications: lifting, positioning and carrying of panels during installation and workshop handling

How to use

Ensure the surface to be lifted is clean, dry and free of dust, grease or loose particles. Press the suction cup firmly against the flat surface to establish full contact between the rubber seal and the substrate. Confirm vacuum hold by applying a steady pull on the cup before lifting. Use smooth, controlled movements while carrying the load and avoid sudden shocks or twists. After use, release the cup according to the manufacturer’s method for breaking the seal and inspect the sealing surface for damage before storing.

Usage recommendations

Do not exceed the rated 120 kg capacity and avoid using the suction cup on rough, porous or dirty surfaces. For heavy, large or critical loads consider using multiple suction cups or mechanical lifting equipment to distribute forces and increase safety. Regularly inspect the sealing lip for cuts, hardening or wear and replace the cup if any damage is found.
