SeaSucker Vacuum Mount - 6" - Black

Video Transcript for Review of SeaSucker Marine Vacuum Mount 6 Inch Cup - 302-1102

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at the SeaSucker vacuum mount. Now, this six inch black vacuum cup is gonna let you mount a variety of objects to most horizontal or vertical non-porous surfaces without drilling any holes. It uses a pump action vacuum to create 210 pounds of pull strength without damaging the surface that it's attached to. As you probably already have noticed, it does have two slotted holes in the top. It's gonna allow you to bolt nearly anything to the back of this cup.

These holes are nine sixteenths of an inch long and they're a quarter of an inch wide, and they are separated on center by one and five 16th inches. This also has a threaded 14 by 20 stainless steel insert in the center for attaching other SeaSucker products. So as I mentioned, this is a six inch wide cup and then the overall height, we're sitting right at about two and a quarter inches tall. So this vacuum cup is gonna be very quick and easy to mount. And to install this, it's gonna be very simple.

You just wanna make sure that the mounting surface, which I have a hard surface here. You do wanna make sure that the surface is clean and then you are going to place this cup on the mounting surface and you can play, it could be on your car, it could be on a wall. You just wanna make sure that that wall is non-porous. And then you're going to press this pump several times until that orange band disappears. So as you can see, the cup is becoming more flat and then our orange band now is completely gone.

So that means that we have a nice seal on that. So taking a wide view here, as you can see, it's gonna hold very firmly. And again, this has 210 pounds of pull strength. And then when this orange indicator, if that should ever begin to show up, especially if you've had this sealed for some time, if you begin to see that orange seal, you'll just re-pump it a few times, depress that plunger a few times, and then that will re-energize, if you will, that seal, renew that seal. Then to break the seal, when you're ready to remove this, you're simply going to pull these tabs up just like that.

And as you can see, it breaks that seal and you'll be able to remove it. So again, lemme just show you, give that some, pump it a few times there or several times rather. And then we are nice and secure. And then just push in those tabs and it comes undone. Just that simple. Now as you saw, this does have a protective cap. So when you receive this, don't throw this cap away, you wanna keep that on hand for when you are not using this vacuum cup. You just replace that vacuum cap, protective cap rather. And then that's going to prevent the cup, the vacuum cup from hardening or cracking when it's not in use. This is made here in the USA of a hard plastic construction. So it's lightweight, it weighs about a pound or so, but it's gonna be very durable. It's gonna do a great job of holding up to the elements. And I do recommend checking out SeaSucker's waterproof lubricant, that is sold separately. That's gonna help prevent this plunger from sticking. And so you can find that lubricant on our website using the item number that you see there on your screen. Just take that item number, put in the search field of our website, that will take you to that lubricant, and then you can add that to your order if you so desire. But that's good to have on hand just to maintain your vacuum cup and make sure that it's operating as it should. Well, that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.
