A fluorescent orange handle makes these retrievers stand out, so they’re less likely to be misplaced. They have a telescoping shaft to extend your reach.

Bend the shaft to reach objects in awkward spaces.

Spring-back retrievers flex and then bounce back when pressure is released.

Bend-and-stay retrievers flex into position and stay there.

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

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.

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

Adjustable-length retrievers have a telescoping shaft to extend your reach.

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

LEDs light the magnetized tip for picking up small steel objects in dark areas. Pivot the head to access material from any angle. These retrievers have a telescoping shaft to extend your reach.

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.

The handles of these assorted picks have a magnet at the end to pick up small steel objects. Use to hold and position wire, springs, and other small parts.

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. Designed to work in any position, they only require one flat surface to securely grip parts. All have durable rare earth magnets that stay engaged, so they won’t drop parts in the event of air loss. Plus, unlike electromagnetic grippers, they do not need electric power to create a magnetic hold. Use these grippers in a variety of automated production lines and robotic pick-and-place systems.

Standard and heavy-load grippers have two air connections, one at each end, and a magnetic piston. One connection uses air to extend the piston and grip your part, while the other uses air to retract the piston and release the magnetic hold. All of these grippers have top and side mounting threads for attaching an optional mounting adapter that fits in tool arms commonly found in automation applications. Standard grippers with a stainless steel gripping surface withstand scrapes from parts with rough edges better than those with an aluminum gripping surface. Those with a proximity sensor signal when the magnetic piston is gripping or releasing a part, and uses that information to trigger other actions in your system. The sensors have a standard 4-Pole M12 plug for electrical connections. Use heavy-load grippers for high temperatures when working near furnaces or near welding jobs.

Low-clearance grippers have one air connection that supplies a burst of air to release the magnetic hold. Those for destacking have a shallow magnetic field, so you can use them to lift and separate a top sheet from a stack of metal sheets.

Grippers with PNP sensors communicate proximity with a positive signal, while those with NPN sensors send a negative signal.

CE-marked grippers meet stringent European Union safety standards.

Friction rings absorb impact as grippers take hold to protect your parts from damage.

Note: Capacities listed are based on lifting flat metal that has a clean, smooth surface. If used on dirty, oily, thin, or curved surfaces, the capacities will be reduced.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
