FlatGrab

Stop wrestling 4×8 sheets solo. FlatGrab connects two GRABO vacuum lifters into one balanced rig — so plywood, MDF, and LVT lift flat, stay flat, and walk where they need to go without flexing, slipping, or eating your back.

If you've ever tried to maneuver a full sheet of ¾" plywood or a stack of LVT planks alone, you already know the problem. One person can't grip both ends. Two people slows the job down. And edge clamps mark the material.

FlatGrab fixes that. The steel spreader bar locks between two GRABO units, turning a pair of single-handed vacuum lifters into a wide-stance dual-grip rig. Lift from anywhere on the sheet, walk it across the shop, drop it where it goes. The sheet stays flat because the load is balanced over two suction points instead of dangling from one.

Designed and built by STV Racking — the same shop that makes Milwaukee Packout accessories and contractor organization gear for working pros.
