Mechanic SPRUT Slab Transport System
The Mechanic SPRUT Slab Transport System is a professional, large-format tile slab-carrying tool designed to simplify lifting, transporting, and installing porcelain and ceramic slabs while maximizing safety and efficiency. Engineered to handle slabs up to 126″ (320 cm) long, 63″ (160 cm) wide, and weighing up to 1,100 lbs (500 kg), the system features six heavy-duty 8″ (200 mm) vacuum suction cups powered by electric air pumps for secure fixation on both smooth and textured surfaces. Each suction cup supports up to 330 lbs (150 kg), while the white cup material helps prevent surface staining, and integrated pressure gauges allow precise monitoring for maximum handling safety.
Built around lightweight telescopic aluminum profiles, the SPRUT adjusts in length from 65″ to 126″ (165–320 cm) and in width from 20″ to 63″ (0.5–1.6 m), providing exceptional versatility for different slab sizes. Reinforced crossbars enhance structural stability, while the modular design allows multiple configurations, including single-guide operation for narrow and medium-sized slabs. Despite its impressive capacity, the system weighs only 66 lbs (30 kg), making it easy to transport and maneuver. Adjustable handles, removable suction pumps, and the included rolling storage bag ensure convenient transportation, storage, and adaptability to a wide range of jobsite conditions.
Tips
- Always check suction cup gauges before lifting slabs
- Use both longitudinal guides for slabs over 1 m wide
- Remove suction pumps for manual positioning when needed
- White suction cups prevent stains on polished tiles
- Keep suction cups clean for maximum holding power
- Store in the provided rolling bag for safe transport
