Pull-Release Hand-Held Lifting Magnets


Style A	Style B	Style C

Quickly switch between grabbing and dropping items—the magnet on these lifters releases when you squeeze the lever and reengages as soon as you let go. Great for repeat jobs, they’re often used to move large amounts of small magnetic items, such as metal fasteners, from one place to another. They also work well for metal items that are too hot or sharp to handle directly.

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

Styles A-C—Style A-D lifters pick up and release small objects more quickly and easily than Style E lifters.

Pry-Off Hand-Held Lifting Magnets

Style B

A no-frills solution to safely grab machined parts, scrap metal, and other magnetic items. These lifters are often used to move items that are too hot or sharp to handle directly.

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

Slide-On Shields—Lifting magnets with slide-on shields come with covers for the magnet to protect it from damage and wear when not in use.

Long-Reach Hand-Held Lifting Magnets


Style A	Style B	Style C	Style E	Style F

Avoid bending down to grab magnetic objects off the ground and out of deep containers. With their long reach, these lifters also keep you at a safe distance from sharp metals.

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

Pull Lever—Lifting magnets with a pull lever have a mechanism to engage and release objects, making it easy to drop them into a bin.

Pull Bar—Lifting magnets with a pull bar have a mechanism to engage and release objects, making it easy to drop them into a bin.

Pry Off—For pry-off lifting magnets, you’ll need to manually remove your objects from the magnet.

Style E—Style E lifting magnets have a narrow end that makes them good for collecting fine materials, such as metallic fillings, turnings, and shavings in tight spots. Made with a stainless steel housing, they resist corrosion, so they’re often used to grab material at the bottom of a water tank.

Style F—Thread a handle into Style F lifting magnets to create their long reach. They have a wing nut to adjust the angle of the handle.
