AdvantageLift Magnet
This "On/Off" Permanent Rare Earth Lift magnet built to last in a heavy-duty industrial work environment while providing all the safety features that protect workers and equipment.
OVERVIEW
Take advantage of our most advanced On/Off, Permanent Rare Earth Lifting Magnet
The AdvantageLift™ has many advantages over other lift magnets on the market. This "On/Off" Permanent Rare Earth Lift magnet built to last in a heavy-duty industrial work environment while providing all the safety features that protect workers and equipment. First, the handle operation is by far the best and most ergonomic feature of the magnet. Handle moves laterally in and out instead of pulling the handle or pressing a release button or lever.
While other magnets are not equipped to allow use a "cheater bar" to turn a magnet "On" and "Off," this lift magnet can accommodate a tubular bar or pipe. This reduces the need to bend over to turn the magnet "On" and "Off" when lifting steel off pallets or the floor. Removal of any "cheater bar" or pipe during the lift process is recommended to prevent damage to the handle and other items the bar could encounter. Second, the lifting bail is the "lock-out" feature for this magnet. When magnet is under load, the lifting bail lock-out prevents the handle from being rotated to the "Off" position. This feature works on the vertical lifting bail as well.

NOTE: Working Load Limit (WLL) lifting values for the AdvantageLift® Magnets are stated at 33% of the actual value. We recommend when lifting sheets over 8’, use 2 or more lifts on a spreader bar to prevent sheet flexing, sagging or peel-off. Thin material is susceptible to magnetic bleed through, resulting in two sheets being lifted at once. Please consult the factory before specifying these magnets for use on round materials. *These maximum sheet lengths are selected due to the sag characteristics of the specified sheet. The item to be lifted must cover the entire length and width of the magnetic poles to properly engage and release the part. CF = Consult Factory NA = Not Applicable (Magnets listed will not turn “ON” on specified material thicknesses.)
Round Lifting Working Load Limit (WLL) in lbs (kg)

NOTE: Working Load Limit (WLL) lifting values for the AdvantageLift® Magnets are stated at 33% of the actual value. Round Item Lifting Values are based on ideal conditions. Pipe length, wall thickness, diameter and surface condition can all affect the magnet’s performance. Please consult the factory before specifying these magnets for use on round materials. NA = Not Applicable.
