Product Overview: Essential Foam Gasket for BIG FOOT Heads

The 12" x 12" Replacement Foam Gasket is tailor-made for EZG’s BIG FOOT vacuum lifting heads—commonly used on the Grip Hog series paver placers and other vacuum lifters from EZG. These gaskets form the airtight interface between the lifter head and a wide variety of flat, textured, or even slightly porous paver and slab materials, ensuring reliable vacuum grip even in wet or dusty site environments. Regular replacement of this foam gasket is vital to uphold productivity and guarantee the safe, damage-free placement of heavy or high-end pavers and slabs.

Technical Specifications

Features & Performance Benefits

Superior Suction and Safe Handling
The replacement foam gasket is crafted from highly resilient, closed-cell foam which resists tears, abrasions, and deformation—even after repeated use. This material allows for a strong seal on both smooth and slightly rough surfaces, sustaining consistent suction and minimizing the risk of accidental drops or weak lifts.

Quick Installation and Minimal Downtime
Designed for rapid, tool-free changeout, the gasket can be swapped out on-site in minutes. A fresh gasket immediately restores safe lifting capacity and reduces the risk of time-consuming equipment failure during a job.

Engineered for Varied Materials & Weather
The gasket’s structure accommodates textured, permeable, or wet-cast slabs as well as standard pavers. Its weather-resistant foam ensures reliable function whether you’re working in rain, cold, dust, or heat.

Preserves Head and Paver Integrity
The memory foam design distributes pressure evenly, reducing the chance of chipping paver edges or causing ghost marks—key for high-end installs where aesthetics matter.

Essential Maintenance & Best Practice Tips

• Inspect Daily: Check for tears, deep gouges, or compression set in the foam before each use.

• Clean Surfaces: Remove dust, sand, and debris from both the gasket and head to maximize seal integrity.

• Replace Promptly: Swap out foam at the first sign of air loss, physical damage, or reduced suction—don’t risk downtime or lost productivity by waiting.

• Stock Extras: Always keep spare gaskets on hand, especially on large projects or in busy seasons.

Applications & Compatibility

• Hardscape and Masonry: Set concrete pavers, large format stone, and slabs for patios, walkways, plazas, and streetscapes.

• Landscape Construction: Ideal for natural stone, architectural slabs, and designer concrete applications.

• Commercial Projects: Use with the BIG FOOT on municipal, urban, retail, and campus projects.

• Repair and Replacement: Remove or reset individual pavers with zero risk to surrounding surfaces—gasket delivers clean lifts on even older, weathered material.
