Exceptional handling stability with Stabilizer

Use a VGS™3010 with Stabilizer and eliminate the need for multiple suction cups.

The Stabilizer reduces the need for using many suction cups for safe and stable lifting. It is used with suction cup models BX52P and BX75P.  Adjustable supports create exceptional stability when handling items such as corrugated boxes, boards and sheets. The Stabilizer is also an excellent aid for handling objects that are hard to grip.
