    Style A

    Style D

    Also known as permanent lifting magnets, these magnets have an on/off handle to engage and release the magnet. All can lock in the on position to prevent accidental release. All except Style C can also lock in the off position. Use the lifting eye for attaching a hook or sling. All can lift both flat and cylindrical objects.
    Note: If used on dirty, oily, thin, or curved surfaces, the capacities will be reduced. Do not use on metal that flexes.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

    Style D

    Style D magnets have a deeper V-groove base than the other styles, so they make more surface contact with round items for a more secure lift.
