@Pro Tiler Tools might be worth you getting on this as this is equipment being recommended by porcel thin for installation..?

Amazon do ragni 319 and 231 (lightweight) trowels



And Dortechdirect do a multitude of suction lifters.
This is what I have.

True, however any of them can depressurise and let go unexpectedly, you have to keep an eye on the gauge or marker on the handle. They can loose pressure very quickly if they are not perfectly clean on the underside.

and they only work on dead smooth tiles which is the down side to all lifters...wish some company would bring out a compresser atachment for tilers

Mines for curved glass Kev, allows for the pick up of some textured surfaces. And there are specific ones by Raimondi I think sold for textured tiles. Just regular pump up type.
