SYS-GRP - Bench Grip Minimus Vacuum Pods

Our SYS-GRP Bench Grip Minimus Pods are our smallest and most flexible option, designed for use with a single dog hole, various standard extrusions, custom brackets, or simply screwed to the side of a workbench. By pairing a Minimus Single Port with multiple Dual Port units, you can customize your work-holding to meet any need or application. 

Our Minimus Pods can be used with our Anchor Dog clamping bench dogs  (available separately) or other compatible dogs that allow for a fastener to be threaded into the top (such as TSO, UJK, or Benchdogs UK). 

Single Port: Ideal for bench top work or mounting to the side of various extrusion profiles using optional hardware.

Dual Port: Offers the same geometry and work-holding capabilities as the Single Port but allows multiple pods to be chained together, increasing stability and hold-down force.

Offset Mount: Retains the work-holding abilities of the Single Port, but the mounting hole is repositioned for a better fit with certain extrusion profiles in the vertical orientation while remaining below the work surface.  Please see our knowledge base article for more information.

Minimus Pods measure 90 mm (3.5 in) square.

Includes:

• SYS-GRP Bench Grip Minimus Vacuum Pod
• M6 x 20mm Flanged Button Head
• SYS-GRP Rail Inserts (for selected extrusion profile)

Our SYS-GRP Bench Grip Vacuum Pods can be used with any commercially available vacuum pump typically found in a shop setting. We have tested this with various budget pumps available online, VacuPress Compact 150 and higher and the Grabo Pro-Lifter. When paired with our Grabo Pro Adapter Kit and Grabo Pro-Lifter, you have a mobile solution suitable for job sites or when you need to bring the tool to the workpiece instead of the workpiece to the tool.

Additional customization options and flexibility are built into our pods using standard 1/4” push-to-connect fittings. We offer a variety of fittings in our store to address most common needs and applications. For customization inquiries, feel free to reach out or check out our SYS-GRP Launch Blog and video, where we walk through a simple setup all the way to our own ‘showcase’ build used in the shop.
