A granite vacuum lifter grips a slab across its polished face with suction pads, so one operator can move and place heavy granite without edge clamps or a crew. Polished granite is an ideal vacuum-lifting surface: flat, non-porous, and firm-sealing. Quattrolifts granite lifters span 330 lb to 1,800 lb (150 to 820 kg), covering countertop slabs through oversized architectural granite.

Buying Guide

1. Size the lifter to your heaviest granite slab

A full granite slab can exceed 1,000 lb (450 kg), and a 3 cm slab is heavier than a 2 cm slab of the same size. Pick a machine whose rated capacity comfortably clears your heaviest slab. Quattrolifts granite lifters run 330 lb to 1,800 lb (150 to 820 kg).

2. Polished granite seals on standard pads

Polished granite is flat and non-porous, so it seals firmly with standard suction pads. Honed or leathered granite finishes need foam vacuum pads to keep the seal reliable. Specify your finishes when you request a quote.

3. Shop fabrication vs on-site placement

In-shop machines (Mule, Glassboy) handle granite at the saw, the polisher, and the loading dock. On-site machines (Vector) carry battery power and off-road tires for jobsite delivery and install. Forklift-mounted Omni units bridge both.

4. Cut crew size and injury risk

Hand-carrying granite slabs is the main source of back and finger injuries in countertop shops. A granite vacuum lifter lets one operator place a slab that previously took a crew, and removes the point-load cracking risk of edge clamps.
