Raptor Dramatically Improves Vacuum Capabilities
The Equalizer Raptor is a cord/wire auto glass removal device designed from the ground-up to improve the power of the vacuum cup dramatically with the integration of the company’s AirForce Constant Vacuum Technology. AirForce has been specifically developed by Equalizer to keep constant vacuum on the glass so that the Raptor stays where you place it and it resists sliding better than any product of its kind, the company says. The cord and wire removal method decreases the chance of damaging the body, and the Raptor makes that process effortless. This removal tool is easy to train on and will keep you labor in shop while increasing labor hours, the company adds. The Raptor also reduces sublets and cycle time.
