Reduce costly flat tires at shipping terminals with a magnetic sweeper.
Improve your shipping terminal maintenance.
Shipping terminals suffering from costly unscheduled downtown and flat tire repair costs can be helped by keeping the site clear of flat tire causing metal debris. Metal debris is a built in problem at shipping terminals because of the locking tags and devices that are cut off container doors and from all of the truck container movement. But most metal debris at shipping terminals can quickly and easily be picked up with a magnetic sweeper.
The debris in shipping terminals is considered light but the need for FOD control is considered moderate due to the cost of damage to tires of equipment and trucks and the related schedule disruptions.
Our best options for shipping terminals is are either to use an ISO hanging magnet, a Forager or Guardian forklift magnet or a Piranha tow behind magnet.

With bump wheels for some added protection.
The PYR hanging magnet was designed for flat terrain and “on road” type uses where not much ground strike prevention is needed. “On road” type bump wheels are provided on the ends to eliminate magnet strikes due to occasional potholes, inclines/declines and speed bump type obstacles.
Choose from 2 different models with different magnet strengths, and 6 different magnet lengths from 3 to 8 feet, to get the perfect setup for your application.
Maximum lifting height of 6” inches (using a 2 ½ inch nail) for the PYR 3”x3” model, and 9 ¼” inches for the PYR 4.5”x4.5” model. Measuring Magnetic Sweeper pickup power and performance.

NAOS 18”, NAOS 20”, NAOS 22”, NAOS 24”
Adds only 1.75” inches to rear profile of the forklift
The NAOS forklift magnet is a rear pin mount design that positions the magnet under the rear counterweight of the forklift to achieve a super low profile and keep forklift maneouverability to a maximum in tight surroundings with little room.
“Swing up” clean of Design allows for easy clean off without getting down and under the forklift. Just unscrew wing nuts and swing the magnet up to waist level to clean it off with a glove or rag over a garbage pail.
Ground strike protection provided by a pivoting magnet and pivoting magnet arms which allow the magnet to swing up and out of the way if the magnet strikes the ground.
Continuous adjustable sweeping height, with no fixed positions, allows precise sweeping height settings to suit your job site.
Comes in 4 sweeping widths, with multiple installation brackets and bracket positions to ensure different height and sized forklifts of every kind are accommodated. See FIT guidelines for details.

Super slim compact design.
Simple design in one size
The KURSK forklift magnet is a rear pin mount design whose frame only adds 2.25” inches to the back profile of the forklift. The magnet bar itself is not positioned under the forklift counterweight like the NAOS, but rather hangs straight down from the KURSK frame and therefore will also stick out from the back of the forklift, but the single 20” inch magnet bar width keeps this to a minimum.
Ground strike protection is provided by chains that allow upwards and forward/backward movement which allows the magnet to swing up and out of the way if the magnet strikes the ground or an object.
Adjustable clamping system provides continuous adjustable sweeping height, with no fixed positions, allowing precise sweeping height adjustment to suit your job site and forklift.
Leading edge guard on magnet prevents magnet bar from sticking to your forklift.
Comes in one 20” inch sweeping width, design ensures different height and sized forklifts of every kind are accommodated. See FIT guidelines for details.

With pivoting debris tray for easy debris removal
The OBLAST forklift magnet is a fork mount design that allows you to use your forklift to pick up ferrous metal debris and then lift the OBLAST over a disposal / scrap bin for easy removal by using the easy flip down pivoting stainless steel debris tray.
Heavy duty construction of steel and stainless, with UHMW bushings on the rotating stainless steel debris tray for long life and a solid feel.
Ground strike protection is provided by the angled front and rear of the stainless steel debris tray which reduces the width of the bottom flat section and therefore limits magnet contact with the ground, and prevents damage if the magnet does contact the ground because there is no hard edge to “catch” on the ground.
Upward clamping fork pockets provides greater contact of the fork pockets with the forklift forks and therefore provides greater stability to reduce magnet “slippage” on the forks.
Comes in one 52” inch magnet sweeping width, and easily mounts to forklift forks up to and including 6” inch wide forks on 24” inch fork centers. See CAD drawings for further details.
