iFixit Heavy Duty Suction Cups

Wow, these things suck (no pun(s) intended). I was lifting just the LCD part of a screen, and I mean just the sheet of liquid crystal without the rest of the screen components (filters, diffusers etc ..). It's on a 49" 4K expensive TV, so dropping it was not an option. I popped these one at each end (about 8" from the left and right sides) and then squeezed the gripper handles about 1/4 of the way. Already they had a firm grip on the screen. I lifted it to another work area and then placed it down. Took me longer figuring out how to get the grippers off the screen! Basically, you twist then anti-clockwise with a bit of force, and they just release! The TV is now fixed and working (needed new backlights as the old ones had turned blue!). It would have cost hundreds to get it fixed, but for the price of these suckers and the lights (30 quid) I now have a fully working TV! Great stuff, buy some! Rob :)

I have some troublesome windows which just don't want to close properly near the hinges and leaves a breezy, cold gap. Bought these to pull the window pane (near the lower hinge) towards me whilst also pulling on the handle to close it. Works like a charm! They may be small but the suction is brilliant. I did wonder whether poor suction would result in me flying backwards across the room when I first used one, but not a chance! Even when I release the vacuum lever, I have to get my finger nails around the sucker to get it off the window. Well worth the purchase and gives me a bit more time to save in order to get the windows properly fixed!

I used these for taking the backs off phones to replace the batteries. They have a good level of suction and make the job a lot easier along with a bit of heat and a fine spudger.

We found ourselves with an uninvited guest in the house and, after much detective work, we found that it was coming from behind the plinths in the kitchen.These came in great use as I was able to take the plinths off and seal the gap in the wall that our mouse friend was using to enter the house.Found them sturdy and with sufficient grip. At times I did have to try a few times to get appropriate grip but it may just be due to painted surface. Either way very satisfied with the purchase.

Bought these little gadgets to fix onto the board at the bottom of kitchen cabinets, to assist in removing the base board to enable access to my integrated washing machine filter. Made light work of the job.Easy to store and good value for money.

not worth it, but its hard to find really good ones.

These suction cups are well built and have a great seal . I bought them to try and lift a stuck bath plug unfortunately it didn’t work but that’s not the fault of the product which had a better suction than I thought it would .This is ideal for lifting iPhone or iPad screens

I bought these to pull out a dent from my car (using the hot water technique), but the only thing that’s strong enough for that kind of a job is a heated blower, electronic suction and pressure from the other side… The suction caps do grip onto a surface though…
