In Booth A-3175, Master Magnetics, Inc. (The Magnet Source®; Castle Rock, CO) will feature effective magnetic systems for material handling, workholding, cleanup and safety. Their Heavy-Duty Neodymium Lifting Magnets provide extraordinary strength in a compact size, ensuring safety and speed for lifting heavy loads. Designed to lift both flat and round ferrous metal items, they are ideal for handling steel plates and similar items in machine shops, warehouses and industrial processing plants. These lifting magnets are permanently magnetized and do not require electricity to operate. Workpieces can be safely loaded and unloaded with the simple on/off lever and locking mechanism. These magnets are available in five models with flat lift ratings of 220 lb, 660 lb, 1,320 lb, 2,200 lb and 4,400 lb; round lift ratings are 50 percent of the flat ratings. For safety, the actual breakaway force is 3.5X greater than the maximum lift ratings.

Also on display will be Welding Magnets designed to keep both hands free to safely work on the project at hand in welding and high heat operations. These strong magnets provide fast and accurate set up and securely hold metal objects in place for perfectly aligned edges. On/Off magnetic welding squares provide additional flexibility during pre- and post-welding, allowing the user to determine when to engage with the magnet. Easy to use with pre-tapped holes for versatile mounting, just place these powerful on/off magnets on two mating steel surfaces to accurately position material for welding. A simple push of the handle allows users to turn the handle to the ‘on’ position and secure for working.  A reverse turn disengages the magnet and allows for safe storage. Made with powerful neodymium, these magnets have a flat pound pull ranging from 150 lb to 1,000 lb.

Also on display will be Heavy-Duty Magnetic Bulk Parts Lifters for easy transfer of bulk metal pieces, including nails, screws, nuts, washers, eyebolts or other ferrous metal items. The heavy-duty magnet attracts any ferrous metal parts in the vicinity, then a fingertip pull on the easy-to-use release bar drops the load into the desired location, ensuring a fast and safe transfer of sharp metal parts. The latest addition to this roster of parts lifters is the uniquely-styled Magnetic Multi-Lift. Encased in a durable, lightweight plastic housing, this powerful ceramic magnet allows for easy transfer of nails, screws, nuts and washers, and other bulk metal pieces. Also on display will be Magnetic Sweepers that come in a variety of shapes and styles for faster, safer clean-up of debris. These super-powered permanent magnet assemblies – ranging from 12 in to 96 in wide – are perfect for the fast and efficient removal of potentially damaging scrap metal debris. The sweepers are ideally designed for warehouses, loading docks, parking areas, runways, workshops and other high traffic areas.
