Lightweight & Powerful Handheld Magnet with Clean-off Sleeve

$229.99 USD$1,835.00 USDBuy Here

(all prices in USD)

 

Available in 1 size:  Powerstik Pro 12″

The Powerstik Pro model is a more powerful and just as versatile variation of the original Powerstik, it has almost 2x more magnetic power on the surface of the clean off sleeve thanks to the Super Blue magnets inside but retains the 1 handed maneuverability that made the original a hit with roofing professionals. Because of the increase in power, this new magnet needed an easier way to clean the debris off.

 

Included with the Powerstik Pro is the new Quick Clean Off Sleeve that can be installed in four positions which grants four different sets of wear bars to use up on hard surfaces before the sleeve needs to be replaced.

 

The increased pickup and holding power of the Pro model allows for faster and more thorough debris retrieval in spaces that regular magnetic sweepers can’t reach. Say goodbye to bending over and digging around in gardens and under decks to get dropped screws and nails, the hook design of the Powerstik Series can pull metal from gardens, decks, bushes and around any other obstacles.

Durability, Power & Easy Clean Off System. This thing is built like a tank!

$8,499.99 USD

(all prices in USD)

 

Available in 1 sweeper width: Yacare 72″

The Yacare magnetic sweeper is a 72 inch wide, durable off road tow behind magnetic sweeper with an easy to use Spring Assisted Clean Off system and torsion ride suspension that smooths out rough terrain!

 

The Yacare clean off system is entirely different from both the HOG and RHINO. It replaces the Quick Clean Off Sleeve system with an easier to use, more durable long term solution that's especially helpful for heavy debris conditions.

 

More power and advanced durability provided by all steel and stainless steel construction and easy effortless clean off with dual debris release levers provide sound rationale to move up from the Rhino to the Yacare.

 

Yet the Yacare keeps all the features that makes the Rhino so popular; the pick up performance in off road conditions provided by the "wrap around" design, the adjustable sweep height, flat proof tires, adjustable hitch height and optional debris digging rake accessory. The suspension system also increases towability of the Yacare magnet through rough terrain, reducing strain on the chassis of the sweeper and tow vehicle.

 

Replacing the safety flags on the Rhino are the RED colored lid and “MAGNETIC SWEEPER” signage on the back of the Yacare unit, to ensure that high visibility is maintained.

 

This thing is built like a tank! Check out the CAD drawings.

Heavy Duty Fork Mounted Magnet! With pivoting debris tray for easy debris removal.

$3,999.99 USDBuy Here

 

(all prices in USD)

 

Available in 1 size: Oblast 52″

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.

No one needs to manually handle the metal debris, which increases safety and efficiency.

 

The Sokoke also has the capability to accept the Debris Digging Rake accessory, this allows an operator to dig up debris that may be embedded under the surface after being runover by heavy machinery so it can be collected. The rakes also allow an operator to have a clear visual indicator of where they have swept while grooming the land, creating a more uniform surface.

Clean up metal debris from construction sites using a magnetic sweeper.

Magnetic sweepers pick up metal debris faster and easier...

Magnetic Sweepers are used on construction sites for picking up metal debris. They help reduce flat tires and human injuries caused by metal debris. They pick up wire, nails, screws, scrap metal, bolts, etc. faster and easier than other methods.

 

Construction sites have all kinds of debris sources and overall debris is considered moderate to high and the need for control is also moderate to high because of the potential for flat tires and injuries.

phu-bia-debris from Magnetic Sweeper from PKO to Muenglong-blueatreak-equipment3

Why pick up metal debris?

It’s true most contractors don’t care about metal debris such as wire, nails, screws, scrap metal, bolts, etc. as long it’s not causing them too many flats especially if there isn’t any obligation to clean up the site in the contract. Many contractors don’t want to spend the time and money to clean up a site during or after construction, because it takes time and money.

 

But some contractors do try and keep construction site debris confined to the site first of all. They also do some preventative sweeping knowing that if it prevents one flat tire their efforts are worth it in terms of reduced costs and avoided delays or downtime. They also know that keeping a clean site, and keeping good relations in the area is not only in their interest but more importantly it also means that the client has a good impression of the contractor and in the end it leads to satisfied customers and future referrals.

 

This may seem like common sense. If you go to a construction site and it’s a total disaster, your confidence that other things are done right comes into question. If you go to a construction site that is kept clean and orderly, and if you see a contractor keeping the debris contained to the site, and cleaned up to protect the workers and equipment, we all think that if the contractor is doing these things, they must be doing a lot of the little things right as well, and it would be true usually.

What Is a Construction Magnet?

The term “construction magnet” is a broad term encompassing magnetic devices used to keep construction worksites clear of any foreign ferrous metal objects that may injure employees or damage equipment. Some of the most commonly utilized are magnetic sweepers, which come in numerous variations to suit different cleanup needs. For example, push magnets are portable, while vehicle-mounted magnets (e.g., tow-behind and front-mounted magnets) are effective in large areas. Most construction magnets feature a load release mechanism, which makes it easier for users to clean off collected material during and between uses.

Types of Construction Site Magnetic Sweepers

Construction site magnetic sweepers are available in many designs and configurations, each of which offers distinct advantages and disadvantages that make it suitable for particular cleanup applications. 

Push-type magnetic sweepers are designed to be manually pushed across a surface to recover ferrous waste. They are available in a range of widths. The wider the platform, the larger the area covered with each sweep. However, narrower sweepers may be preferable in tighter locations.

Front-mounted magnetic sweepers are designed to be mounted to the front of the vehicle. They allow users to pick up ferrous debris without having to drive over it first. It is a good choice for areas with heavy layers of debris that are likely to cause punctured tires.

Hanging magnetic sweepers are designed to attach to existing vehicle or equipment structures. As a result, they are a relatively low-cost magnetic cleanup solution since you do not need to pay for handle, wheel, or frame components to use them.

Tow-behind magnetic sweepers are designed to be hitched to the back of a vehicle and pulled throughout the construction site. They are highly effective at picking up metal debris across larger areas. However, it is important to keep in mind terrain when purchasing one. Those engineered for flat surfaces are suitable for concrete or asphalt, while those engineered for all terrains can be used on-road or off-road.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Construction Site Magnetic Sweepers
