Compact 80mm × 160mm Oval Foam Seal for Narrow Bricks, Small Pavers & Stone Offcuts
The GRABO HIGH FLOW Mini Oval Foam Seal (80mm × 160mm) is engineered specifically for compact masonry units and narrow profiles where standard square or large plates cannot seat. Designed for bricklayers, masons, and hardscaping contractors, this compact oval gasket transforms your high-displacement vacuum lifter into a precise brick-handling tool, allowing you to lift and place pieces without surface overhang or air bypass.
Constructed from specialized open-cell foam rubber, the gasket allows continuous high-volume air displacement through porous, rough-cut masonry textures rather than relying on a sealed vacuum chamber. Whether laying narrow clay bricks, coping borders, tumbled cobbles, or custom-cut paver infills, this mini oval seal delivers reliable, non-slip suction on materials that traditional vacuum cups cannot grab.
*Note: GRABO vacuum lifter tools and mounting baseplates are sold separately.
- Compact 80mm × 160mm Oval Profile: Fits narrow surfaces and small-format masonry units without perimeter overhang or lost vacuum grip.
- Open-Cell Porous Flow Technology: Specially engineered foam matrix maintains high airflow draw across rough, porous brick surfaces and unsealed stone.
- Dedicated Brick & Infill Handling: Enables rapid pick-and-place positioning for single bricks, narrow paving borders, edge restraints, and custom offcuts.
- Engineered for HIGH FLOW Pumps: Designed specifically to leverage the continuous air displacement volume of the GRABO HIGH FLOW power unit.
- Quick-Swap Maintenance: Snaps securely into the matching tool baseplate channel for tool-free, rapid changeovers between paver sizes.

Versatile Applications
- Narrow Clay & Concrete Bricks: Pick, align, and lay standard building bricks, facing bricks, and clay walkway units.
- Small Pavers & Cobbles: Set perimeter soldier courses, tumbled cobblestones, and compact patio border pieces.
- Job-Site Stone Offcuts: Maneuver split-stone offcuts, mitered paver pieces, and narrow infill blocks safely into fresh sand or mortar.

FAQs
-
Is this product a complete vacuum lifter?
No. This product is an accessory replacement mini oval foam gasket. A compatible GRABO HIGH FLOW vacuum tool and matching adapter baseplate are required for operation.
-
Why use this mini oval seal instead of the standard 300mm plate?
Standard square plates measure 12" × 12" (300mm × 300mm), which hang off the sides of narrow individual bricks or border pavers. The 80mm × 160mm footprint fits completely onto small masonry surfaces without leaking vacuum around the edges.
-
Why does this seal use open-cell foam?
Open-cell foam allows the high-flow air pump to draw a steady stream of air through porous, unsealed masonry units like clay bricks, preventing seal blowout while sustaining a secure suction grip.
-
Does this fit the standard GRABO Pro Brushless or GRABO V2?
No. This seal is engineered specifically for the GRABO HIGH FLOW platform to match its high-displacement air intake specifications.
