Description
The TuffCup Poseidon is an 8" battery-powered vacuum cup built for tile setters, glass installers, and stone fabricators who need reliable, mark-free lifting power in a lightweight package. At just 1.9 lbs, it delivers up to 220 lbs of horizontal and 154 lbs of vertical lifting capacity — backed by an industry-leading 48+ hours of continuous runtime on a single USB-C charge.
Its non-bleeding rubber pad protects surfaces from marks and stains across tile, glass, marble, granite, wood, plastic, ceramic, metal, and porcelain. The heavy-duty plastic body is engineered for daily professional use, and the auto start/stop system keeps suction consistent without manual intervention.
