- Described by Aardwolf as compact and suitable for use on fragile or lightweight slabs

What's Included
- One seam setter
- One plastic carrying case
Who Is This For?
Installers closing and leveling countertop seams on site, particularly on thin, fragile or lightweight material where a heavier setter is more force than the slab wants.
Read the quantity before ordering: a seam is normally pulled with two setters, one each side of the joint, and this SKU is one unit. If you need a matched pair with powered vacuum, the Aardwolf Seam Setter with the electric-powered vacuum pump ships as a set of two setters plus the pump. If you want larger vacuum cups on a manual tool, the Omni Cubed Stealth Seamer Seam Setter with 8 in. cups is a manual alternative in the catalogue. This tool sets and levels a seam; it does not lift or carry slabs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Aardwolf Seam Setter CTTRSS1 sold as a pair?
No. Aardwolf sells the ratchet seam setter individually - one unit with a plastic carrying case. Seams are usually pulled with two setters, so check how many you need.
Does it need power?
No. It is a manual tool: a dual-action ratcheting handle does the pulling and there is no pump, battery or air supply.
How does it level the joint?
Four leveling knobs adjust the height of the pads either side of the seam, so the two pieces can be brought flush before the adhesive sets.
Is a case included?
Yes. The seam setter is supplied with a plastic carrying case.
What is the difference between this and the electric Aardwolf seam setter?
This is a single manual unit with a ratcheting handle and a case. The electric model ships as a set of two setters with an electric-powered vacuum pump and 9 in. x 7-1/2 in. vacuum pads.
