Quality suction cups that won't lose adhesion or become brittle over time
Suction Cups Direct is a bulk supplier of high quality suction cups based in the UK. We have been the exclusive UK and European distributor for our partners Adams Mfg. Corp. USA since 2003. We are Adams UK.
Adams suction cups will not yellow, deteriorate or lose adhesion over time. Our suction cups are crystal clear and safe in strong sunlight due to their "Light-Diffusing Ring" technology. Adams suction hooks do not require a lever or locking device to grip tightly.
See:- Why Adams Are Best. Our suction cups are available in a wide selection of types and sizes- from mini to heavy duty and weight ratings- from 0.2 kgs up to 9kgs. (click an image below).
Why put your trust in cheap, flimsy, inferior suction cups from elsewhere that may only let you down?
Suction Cups by type.
.........keyring.........
The following suction cups are individual examples of only one size from different product ranges. Click the images above or items in the left hand column for all sizes of a particular type.
Suction cups with hooks are used to hang signs in windows. Suction cups can also be used for posters, crystals, suncatchers, thermometers, air fresheners and more.
Use suction cups with thumb tacks to hang thin leaflets upto 2mm in thickness on windows.
For thicker posters and signs on windows, consider Adams suction cups with thumb screw as a good fixing. An alternative fitting to the thumb screws (which cuts it's own thread into the suction cup) are suction cups with stud and nut - so that an item can be changed continually using the removeable brass nut.
Choose suction cups with mushroom head for signs, posters and self hanging products which use a round hole or keyhole slot. These are available in a large range of sizes and all with technical drawings to ascertain the suitability for your project.
Useful suction cups used in window displays are suction cups with side pilot hole in many sizes for hanging items by cord, wire or string.
Another very popular product is our suction cups with top pilot hole for fixing items using a course screw which cuts it's own thread into the cup. This is also our base product for other suction cups with attached fittings that we sell.
Our large range of suction cups includes heavy duty suction cups with hook for hanging heavy items with a standard hook or large hook - which is ideal for Christmas wreaths. Other types of giant suction cups could be heavy duty suction cups with loop for attaching rope or straps, heavy duty suction cups with top and side pilot holes for a two way fixing or even heavy duty suction cups with mushroom head with side pilot holes for hanging heavy items on glass in window displays.
Suction cups with slot head hang Christmas string mini lights or wiring or can even hold certain size airlines on glass in aquariums.
Use Adams suction cups with bulldog clips for hanging numerous papers, documents or a sign securely on windows.
Suction cups with finger loop or suction cups with keyring are used for removing glass screens from mobile phones, tablets and laptops and are available in various suction cup diameter sizes.

There's art and science behind Adams Suction Cups.
Over 40 years of extensive R&D has gone into perfecting these products at Adams Mfg. Corp. USA. Their skilled design engineers are committed to looking at their performance down to the molecular level. During that time, Adams has developed a deep understanding of how gravity, atmospheric pressure and surface irregularities affect the performance dynamics of suction cups. These insights are then applied to the design and in the manufacturing process at exacting tolerances to ensure consistent quality at every stage of the production process.
See how it all started all those years ago.
Adams Suction Cups range is now over 95% crystal clear Phthalate free PVC.
Suction cups need to be fixed to a dry, clean, flat, smooth, glossy, slick/shiny, non-porous, non-textured surface like glass, mirrors, glossy plastic, plain high gloss ceramic tiles and car bodywork. Surfaces like shower panels and tiles may have soap or cleaning product residue on the surface which needs to be removed with alcohol before applying any suction cups.
Some glass cleaner products can leave a residue after cleaning which affects adhesion and so de-grease any application area and then clean with a mild detergent, rinse and dry.
Suction cups may need to be "burped" periodically by pressing down to remove any air that may have seeped in over time.

Suction cups of choice used by some of our customers.
Many of our valued and loyal customers incorporate Adams bulk suction cups into their own manufactued products (OEM - original equipment manufacturer).
Our Point of Sale customers use them to hold leaflets, signs, poster graphics and other products in window displays and expect strength and reliability time after time - which is not the case with cheap inferior suction cups found elsewhere.
