Lifting and Pulling

Switch-Off Lifting Magnets

Pull the on/off handle to engage and release the magnet.

Pry-Off Lifting Magnets

These magnets hold a load until you pull the handle and pry the magnet off.

Hand-Held Magnetic Lifters

Easily grab iron and steel fasteners, small sheets, and other parts from work areas, bins, and hard-to-reach places.

Hand-Held Magnetic Pullers

Slide steel plates and blocks off a stack.

Manhole-Cover Lifters

A long handle gives you the leverage to safely remove manhole covers by yourself.

Magnetic Sheet Metal Separators

Separate stacked steel sheets without prying, scratching, or bending them.

Air-Powered Magnetic Grippers

Connect these magnetic grippers to an air system to lift odd-shaped and perforated metal parts that often cause traditional vacuum cups to lose hold.

Magnetic Retrievers

High-Visibility Magnetic Retrievers

A fluorescent orange handle makes these retrievers stand out, so they’re less likely to be misplaced.

Magnetic Retrievers

Pick up screws, nuts, and other small steel objects.

Extended-Reach Magnetic Retrievers

An extra-long shaft enables access to material in hard-to-reach areas. These retrievers can pick up heavier objects than our other magnetic retrievers.

Easy-Release Magnetic Retrievers

Often used to pick up steel sheets, the magnet holds material until you press the lever to disengage it.

Illuminated Magnetic Retrievers

LEDs light the magnetized tip for picking up screws, nuts, and other small steel objects in dark areas.

Easy-Release Flexible-Shaft Magnetic Retrievers

Push the plunger to engage the magnet; release to disengage. These retrievers bend into position and stay in place.

Electrical-Insulating Flexible-Shaft Magnetic Retrievers

Protect against accidental contact with live electrical circuits. These insulated retrievers are tested to 1,000 volts to meet IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505. The shaft bends and stays in position to reach objects in awkward spaces.

Illuminated Flexible-Shaft Magnetic Retrievers

LEDs light the magnetized tip and the shaft bends and stays in position to reach objects in awkward spaces.

Flexible-Shaft Magnetic Retrievers

Bend the shaft to reach objects in awkward spaces.

Extended-Reach Flex-Head Magnetic Retrievers

An extra-long shaft and pivoting head lets you access hard-to-reach material from almost any angle.

Flex-Head Magnetic Retrievers

The head pivots, so you can pick up screws, nuts, bolts, and other small steel objects from any angle.

Magnetic Chip Collectors

Magnetized on all sides, these wand-like tools remove steel chips from machinery, the floor, and your clothing. Pull the plunger to demagnetize and drop the chips into your collection bin.

Floor and Pavement Sweepers

Self-Cleaning Fork-Mount Magnetic Floor Sweepers

To attach, slide forks into the forklift pockets and tighten the eyebolts. Lift the top hand lever to release debris.

Chain-Mount Magnetic Floor Sweepers

Run chain through the eyebolts to attach these sweepers to your vehicle. Clean with a rag or gloved hand.

Self-Cleaning Chain-Mount Magnetic Floor Sweepers

Run chain through the eyebolts to attach these sweepers to your vehicle. Press the toe plate to release debris.

Self-Cleaning Towable Magnetic Floor Sweepers

In addition to forklift pockets, these sweepers have a removable tow handle and wheels for towing. Lift the top hand lever to release debris.

Self-Cleaning Hand-Held Magnetic Floor Sweepers

Pull the release on top of the handle to release debris.

Hand-Held Magnetic Floor Sweepers

Clean with a rag or gloved hand.

Self-Cleaning Wheeled Magnetic Floor Sweepers

A quick-release feature lets you clean these sweepers without touching debris.

Wheeled Magnetic Floor Sweepers

An offset handle reduces strain from bending and reaching—good for tight areas under machinery and work stations.

Magnets for Upright Vacuum Cleaners

Prevent metal objects from entering your upright vacuum cleaner and causing damage.

Magnetic Stirring Bar Retrievers

Fish stirring bars out of containers using the magnetic end of these retrievers.
