Material Holding Figures
Published holding figures depend on test conditions and do not replace the working-load limits and safety instructions.
- Glass / ceramic tile: Perpendicular 375 lb (170 kg); parallel 265 lb (120 kg)
- Metal: Perpendicular and parallel 242 lb (110 kg)
- Plastic: Perpendicular and parallel 220 lb (100 kg)
- Wood: Perpendicular 220 lb (100 kg); parallel 143 lb (65 kg)
- Rough slate / rough concrete: Perpendicular and parallel 176 lb (80 kg)
- Drywall: Perpendicular 165 lb (75 kg); parallel 143 lb (65 kg)
Applications
Use for positioning suitable large-format porcelain or ceramic tile, stone, glass, plywood and drywall. Establish the grip on a clean, sufficiently even surface and monitor the analog gauge. Do not treat the maximum holding figures in Specifications as universal safe working loads.
Selection and Use
- Perpendicular hold is a pull away from the surface; parallel hold is a pull along it. Select the applicable material and direction and follow the tool’s safe-load instructions.
- The manufacturer specifies surface variation under 3 mm. Porosity, contamination and unevenness affect the grip and allowable load.
- Do not attach to glass thinner than 6 mm; vacuum pressure can damage thin glass. Do not use to support or climb with a person.
- The V2 has an analog gauge, not the PRO’s digital automatic-control system. Check the gauge and follow the V2 operating procedure throughout use.
