GRABO Slender Seal 4in Narrow Pad for Plank Tile, 132 lb

Specialized 4-Inch Narrow Profile Vacuum Seal for Plank Tiles, Beams, Pipes & Linear Profiles

The GRABO Slender Seal is engineered specifically for long, narrow, and irregular building components where standard factory gaskets overhang the edges and lose suction pressure. Designed for tile installers, woodworkers, masons, and commercial contractors, this 4-inch slim-profile gasket transforms your electric vacuum lifter into a dedicated linear material handler.

With an elongated footprint and streamlined contact geometry, the Slender Seal delivers up to 132 lbs (60 kg) of certified lifting force. By concentrating vacuum power along a narrow axis, it prevents vacuum leaks, improves balance, and delivers precise directional control when maneuvering wood-look plank tile, linear paving units, dimensional lumber, pipes, and narrow countertop backsplashes.

*Note: GRABO vacuum lifter tools are sold separately.

• 4-Inch Narrow Axis Footprint: Locks firmly onto narrow stock and linear materials without overhang or perimeter suction loss.
• 132 lbs (60 kg) Certified Lifting Rating: Safely lifts and positions heavy porcelain planks, natural wood planks, linear pavers, and trim elements.
• Superior Handling Balance: Distributes negative pressure along the centerline of long stock to eliminate tilt and off-axis rocking during installation.
• High-Density Foam Rubber Construction: Tough closed-cell foam conforms to subtle grain patterns and textures on wood, tile, and stone.
• Quick-Swap Gasket System: Installs easily onto your tool baseplate without tools, allowing rapid field changeovers between standard and narrow jobs.

Versatile Applications

• Wood-Look Plank & Subway Tile: Set elongated porcelain planks, decorative strip tiles, and borders flat into mortar without edge suction loss.
• Dimensional Lumber & Beams: Maneuver narrow hardwood planks, ceiling beams, framing elements, and finish trim stock.
• Pipes & Cylindrical Surfaces: Hold and align rigid metal conduit, PVC pipes, and round structural profiles securely.
• Countertop Curbing & Backsplashes: Lift and bed linear quartz, granite, and marble riser strips with steady operator control.

FAQs

• Is this product a complete vacuum lifter?

  No. This product is an accessory replacement foam rubber seal. A compatible GRABO vacuum lifter tool is required to supply vacuum suction.

• Why would I use the Slender Seal instead of the standard seal?

  A standard wide vacuum seal hangs over the sides of narrow materials like plank tile, 2x4 lumber, or pipes, causing the vacuum to leak. The Slender Seal's 4-inch width fits completely on the surface of long, narrow items to form an airtight hold.

• How do I install the Slender Seal on my GRABO?

  The seal attaches directly onto the tool's base plate via the standard press-fit channel, allowing you to swap back and forth between wide and narrow seals in seconds without tools.

• What is the maximum weight capacity of the Slender Seal?

  The Slender Seal is certified for a safe lifting payload of up to 132 lbs (60 kg) on non-porous and semi-porous narrow surfaces.
