There are a variety of choices when it comes to lifting, maneuvering and installing insulated metal panels and related cladding materials, but few have as many benefits as vacuum-attaching products from Wood's Powr-Grip®.
- Ergonomically designed to reduce worker fatigue and related injuries.
- Quick attachment and release to increase productivity.
- No wrestling with slings or hooks that can damage panels and slow installation.
- Attach directly to the face of the panel, keeping edges free for exact panel placement.
- Vacuum pads will not slip or damage the surface of panels.
Whether you are installing composite panels, cold storage panels, siding or roofing panels, Wood's Powr-Grip makes your job faster and easier with a broad range of WPG hand-held vacuum cups and below-the-hook vacuum lifters.
