The installation of insulating glass units has long been a challenge to designers, architects and glaziers alike. For decades, Wood's Powr-Grip® has been making it easier and less dangerous to install IG units with hand-held vacuum cups, below-the-hook vacuum lifters and other installation products. Today, WPG continues to make installation of IG units more efficient, ergonomic and secure through innovative engineering.
- A red-line indicator or available Audio Alarm on Powr-Grip hand cups alerts the user of any significant vacuum loss.
- Vacuum gauges with colored zones on WPG vacuum lifters clearly indicate whether vacuum is sufficient for lifting.
- Indicator lights and warning buzzers also signal when a vacuum lifter is ready to move IG units.
- The WPG Foot prevents the possibility of shearing in double-, triple- or quadruple-glazed units.
Whether you are loading sealed glass units for transport to the job site, installing residential windows and doors, or constructing curtain walls in multi-story buildings, Wood's Powr-Grip makes the process of installing IG units easier and safer.
