Glass Handling Tools

At JT Hand Tools, we are experts in manufacturing and supplying an extensive range of tools for use within the automotive glass industry. Located in Sheffield, we have experience working throughout the whole of the UK and further afield across Europe. Within our category for glass handling tools, we provide ten key items for your consideration, including suction pads, holding straps and lifting tools.

Our range of glass handling tools are designed to help with the delicate task of removing and refitting windscreens and other glass panels on vehicles, including when working on railway rolling stock or plant machinery. Other mechanical components can withstand some rough handling, the fragile nature of the material being handled requires a special kind of handling. Dedicated glass handling accessories are necessary in order to avoid damaging it during the normal course of removal and refitting.

Side Window Suction Pads

We are pleased to present the best glass handling accessories for use when you need products to support you to repair or replace glass on various vehicles. These tools are designed for use in the auto repair business, but can also be used for such handling applications across all industries. When staff are properly trained to use these products, technicians can expect to suffer zero breakages, even when handling the largest and heaviest panes or working on the awkward fitting jobs. 

The primary function of such equipment is the use of a suction lifter. This works in tandem with the affixed handle to be able to hold the weight of the glass comfortably. Using the attached handles, a sheet of glass can be more easily manoeuvred. The way it touches its surface also means that it doesn’t leave marks are there is no need to handle the edges of the pane, providing a health and safety aspect to such handling jobs by protecting fingers.

Glass Repair Products

The solution to anyone working in this way is to use these handles, each fitted with a lifter suction cup.  These devices can be fixed to both flat or gently curved glass surfaces to form a convenient handle. This will allow workers to have full confidence in the equipment, benefiting in terms of both the health and safety of staff, and preventing any unnecessary financial consequences of broken glass in the workplace.
