What is the weight capacity range of these specialty lifters?

Capacities span from small handheld suction lifters up to the Kenco Bin Block Lift rated at 9,000 lb. Vacuum lifters, A-frames, buggies, and dollies each carry their own rating. Check the spec table on each product listing to confirm the capacity for your specific load.

Do vacuum lifters work on all stone and glass surfaces?

Vacuum lifters grip smooth, non-porous surfaces like polished stone slabs and glass panels most effectively. Porous or textured materials may reduce suction hold. Review each listing's specifications and intended materials, and call +1 (307) 441-5529 to confirm the right lifter for your material.

Which brands does Vovlift carry for specialty lifting?

Vovlift carries Abaco Machines and Kenco in this collection. Abaco covers vacuum lifters, A-frames, slab buggies, trolleys, dollies, racks, and clamps, while Kenco supplies curb and bin block lifts. Every product ships with manufacturer warranty and insured LTL freight.

How are specialty lifters shipped?

Specialty lifters ship by insured LTL freight, which protects your equipment in transit for these heavier and often fragile handling tools. Each order includes manufacturer warranty per the product page. Contact +1 (307) 441-5529 with questions about delivery or freight scheduling.

How to Choose a Specialty Lifter

The right lifter depends on the material you handle, its weight, and whether you're lifting, transporting, or storing. Match the tool to your workflow — vacuum lifters for hoist-mounted stone and glass, A-frames and racks for storage and transit, buggies and dollies for shop-floor moves.

What is a specialty lifter?

A specialty lifter is material-handling equipment built for specific loads like stone slabs, glass panels, curbs, or concrete bin blocks. Categories include vacuum lifters that grip with suction, mechanical clamps, transport A-frames, slab buggies, and dollies — each designed to reduce manual lifting and protect fragile or heavy materials.

Vacuum lifter or mechanical clamp?

Choose a vacuum lifter when you handle smooth, non-porous stone or glass and need hoist-mounted control — models like the DVL and SVL series suit fabrication shops. Choose scissor clamps or suction lifters for lighter, hand-carried loads where speed and portability matter more than lifting height.

What do I need to move and store slabs?

For shop-floor movement, use slab buggies and dollies rated to your load; for storage and transit, use A-frames and slab racks. Match capacity to your heaviest slab and confirm width fits your aisles and truck bed before ordering. Call for sizing help.

How do I size for weight capacity?

Confirm the weight of your heaviest load, then select a lifter rated above it. Capacities here range from small suction lifters to the Kenco Bin Block Lift at 9,000 lb. Check each listing's spec table, and call +1 (307) 441-5529 if you're between sizes.
