Suction cups/grippers DURAFLEX® Single and dual
FC20P
Flat, concave suction cup with cleats
Suitable for lifting small objects and narrow
parts, also slightly domed, flat and oily surfaces,
e.g., such as those encountered when handling
steel sheets in press processes.
Thanks to the high friction of the rubber material,
the suction cups can withstand high forces at
rapid accelerations in horizontal directions, even
on oily surfaces.
The suction cups have cleats that prevent thin
objects from being disfigured.
DURAFLEX® suction cups manufactured in a
specially developed material that features the
elasticity of rubber and wear resistance of
polyurethane. The material does not leave any
marks on the objects handled.
