Glass Lifter GL-850
Compact telescoping mast lifter — 660 lb, 28 ft reach, with glass attachments
About the Glass Lifter GL-850
The GL-850 is a compact and versatile material lifter designed for vertical and overhead glazing, construction sites, and workshops. With a telescoping aluminum mast reaching 28 ft (8.5 m) and a 660 lb (300 kg) load capacity, it folds quickly for single-operator setup and transport. Available in two power configurations: the DC version includes a rechargeable battery and charger for cord-free operation, while the AC version runs from a standard outlet. Operates via remote control with anti-fall safety system on the mast. Optional glass holder, universal cradle, and crane arm attachments transform the GL-850 from a general material lifter into a dedicated glass installation tool. Ideal for storefront glazing, curtain wall, and overhead glass installation.
