Switch-Off Lifting Magnets
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. Styles A-D have a V-groove for lifting pipes, tubes, and rods by their rounded side. 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. Style E magnets are round to lift cylindrical objects by their flat top. They’re often used with rings, bearing housings, and flange plates. They lift cylindrical objects more efficiently than rectangular magnets and also release objects more smoothly and safely when switched off.
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.

Manhole-Cover Lifters
A long handle gives you the leverage to safely remove manhole covers by yourself.
Lifters with magnet lift have a retractable handle that can be adjusted to lift at various angles. They fold up for easy storage and have two wheels for easy transportation. Requires a lifting magnet (sold separately).
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
