Rubi Tools ERGO TILE TRANS Thin Panel Transport Kit - 28906
ERGO TILE TRANS has been designed for the transport and handling of large formats of thin thicknesses (SLIM) or any large format with a maximum weight of 80 kg. These are two retractable aluminum profiles that will allow you to handle pieces up to 320 cm long. The distance between the profiles can be adapted according to the user's needs, with 700 mm being the recommended measurement for greater stability. Each of these profiles has 3 vacuum suction cups with a diameter of 160 mm and a high load capacity. This will provide us with greater safety, reliability and stability during transport. The ERGO TILE TRANS incorporates two Soft-grip controls for comfortable and safe handling. These handles can rotate to reveal the two rubber stops where we will rest the tool to proceed with the installation operation. The FAST FIX system guarantees very fast and comfortable assembly and adjustment. The maximum load weight of the ERGO TILE TRANS is 80 kg, however, if we add the set of crossbars (Ref. 28907) apart from providing greater stability, we will also increase the maximum load up to 120 kg.

Maintenance Tips
-
Clean after every use: Remove dust, adhesive, and tile slurry from aluminum profiles and suction cups to maintain grip strength and smooth sliding operation.
-
Maintain suction cups: Keep rubber pads clean and undamaged; replace if hardened or cracked to ensure safe slab holding.
-
Inspect guide rails: Ensure telescopic aluminum profiles (up to 320 cm) move freely and stay aligned to prevent instability during transport.
-
Tighten handles & fast fix system: Regularly check soft-grip rotating handles and locking mechanisms for secure positioning under load.
-
Avoid overloading: Respect the 80 kg max load (or up to 120 kg only when using crossbar set 18819) to prevent structural stress.
-
Protect aluminum surfaces: Wipe dry after wet-site use to prevent oxidation and maintain rigidity.
-
Store properly: Retract guides fully and store in a dry, protected area to avoid bending or impact damage
