Keep a safe distance from heavy loads—these lifters automatically engage when set down, so you don’t have to secure the magnet to the load yourself. When these lifters sense they’ve been set down again, they’ll automatically release the load. Alternatively, use the push buttons on these lifters to manually turn the magnet on and off. As a fail-safe, the magnet stays engaged even if the battery dies, preventing your load from dropping. Pair these lifters with a crane or hoist. They’re often used to move large metal sheets and pipes but can also be used to position loads when grinding or fixturing metal parts together.

You can adjust the magnet’s strength on these lifters to protect thin materials from damage. Fine-tuning the strength is also useful for lifting just one sheet off a stack at a time.

Lifters with a remote control give you a way to manually turn the magnet on or off from a distance.

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

Also known as permanent lifting magnets, these magnets hold a load until you pull the handle and pry the magnet off. They have a lifting eye for attaching a hook or sling.

Style B magnets have a nonmarring roller release that prevents scraping and gouging the load as it is released.

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.

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.

Attach lifters with a lifting eye to a hook, rope, or chain to lower them into hard-to-reach places, such as deep bins or waterways. Alternatively, stick them to a magnetic surface and use the lifting eye to route hose, wiring, and other nonmagnetic items. Style E lifters have two different holes for the lifting eye, so you can thread it into different sides.

Lifters with slide-on shields come with covers for the magnet to protect it from damage and wear when not in use.

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