How Metal Debris Accumulates During Military Operations

MRO: Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul

All equipment on base and in the field needs regular maintenance and repairs performed. When these operations are taking place fasteners, metal cutoffs, and tools can get dropped and create a tire puncture hazard, potentially causing more downtime for equipment. A magnetic sweeper also helps find dropped fasteners or tools in the field or shop, reducing time spent looking for dropped pieces. Utilizing a magnetic sweeper to keep maintenance areas clean is a proactive way to prevent future downtime.

Spent Munition Cleanup

Once the firing range goes cold, all spent ammunition cases, belt clips, and magazines need to be collected. Any small arm steel cased ammunition and any steel machine gun belt links can be collected quickly and easily using a handheld magnet. Larger spent steel munition cases such as grenade launcher and artillery shells can be picked up quickly across large areas and put into a pile using a high-powered magnetic sweeper on a skid steer or loader. When steel components are used on the range, magnets make quick work of cleaning up.

There are 3 types of Military Magnets

There are 3 types of magnets for military:

Mammoth Mining Sweeper at Gold Mine

Tow behind magnets are hitched to a tow vehicle such as a truck only when needed and then put away again. Sweeping with these units is a distinct and separate activity undertaken in addition to other activities.

Hanging magnets are hung from a wide range of vehicles or pieces of equipment on a permanent basis. Sweeping with these units takes place while other normal activities are carried out resulting in no additional labor costs for sweeping for metal debris. Hanging magnets may be front, mid, or rear mounted.

Heavy Duty Truck Magnetic Sweeper in Shop

Front mounted magnetic sweepers are semi permanently attached to the front of vehicles like a snow plow and are more effective at preventing flats on the vehicles that use them over other types of magnets. These magnets are maneuverable so they can be used to clear large areas quickly and make it easy to see where you are sweeping.

Heavy Duty Magnetic Power for Detailed Cleaning

$322.99 – $2,364.99 USD

Available in 1 size:  Powerstik Pro Elite 12″

Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…

The Powerstik Pro Elite is Bluestreak’s premium handheld magnetic sweeper built for professionals with over 2x more power than the original Powerstik. This additional power increases the speed you can clean an area by picking up more per pass and holding more debris before needing to clean the magnet.

The Pro Elite comes with the new Powerstik Quick Clean-Off sleeve that removes debris with a press of a button and slide of the sleeve. It also doubles as a wear bar to prevent damaging the aluminum housing when dragging on hard surfaces, it has four sides so you can flip it around multiple times when a side gets worn out.

The new adjustable height arm rest allows for easy maneuvering of the 4.3lbs sweeper by people of different heights.

The new rare earth Super Blue magnet system in this sweeper will pick up a nail from 3.25” and will hold an impressive amount of weight making it perfect for picking up any metal debris in tight spaces.

$548.99 – $658.99 USD

Available in 3 sizes: Bora 25, Bora 31, Bora 37

Packed with two layers of C8 grade magnets

The Bora magnetic sweeper is the biggest push magnet designed for flat surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. It has two layers of C8 ceramic magnets packed end to end un-spaced and a steel backing plate to make the magnetic field larger and extend it downward.

It is similar to the RIP magnet in terms of pickup power with a lifting height of 5 and 3/4 inches. The Bora is also designed with a super strong supporting back frame in the form of a 2” by 2” tube welded to both sides to increase the Bora’s durability.

The Bora is also loaded with features. It is designed for professionals who needs pick up power, durability and wider widths. Sizes: 25, 31 and 37 widths.

Designed for Dirt and Gravel Yards. With 10” inch x 3” inch wide flat proof Bumper wheels.

$989.99 – $2,609.99 USD

Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…

With 10” inch x 3” inch wide flat proof Bumper wheels. The EIGER was designed for those slightly more off-road surfaces with more uneven surfaces such as dirt and gravel where potholes and bumps exist.

Designed with wide wheels to stay on top of those surfaces, and also designed with a greater minimum sweeping height of 2.5”inches to prevent the sweeper from hitting the ground.

Comes standard with black PVC Quick Clean Off Sleeve for easy debris removal, and 4 hanging chains with 8 quick clips to hang the EIGER from your vehicle.

Heavy Duty Aluminum Sleeve Hanging Magnetic Sweeper

Nyx

$2,789.99 – $3,459.99 USD

Available in 4 sizes:  NYX 62”, NYX 74”, NYX 86”, NYX 98”

Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…

The Nyx Heavy Duty Hanging Magnetic Sweeper is built to endure heavy duty terrain while clearing metal debris. An Aluminum quick clean off sleeve protects the magnet housing from impacts and crush forces and allows debris to be removed from the magnetic field quickly and easily.

The Nyx also features 10.5” x 3.25” inch Carlisle flat free wheels with UHMW bushings replacing standard ball bearings for greater impact resistance and smooth operation. These wheels will touch down on terrain changes before the clean off sleeve so the Nyx can glide over obstacles rather than strike the ground.

A 4.5” x 4.5” inch permanently charged C8 magnet housing allows the Nyx to pull a 2.5” inch 8 penny nail from up to 8.25” inches off the ground. So, in the 3”-5” inch recommended sweeping height range the Nyx has plenty of pick up power to retrieve metal debris regardless of terrain requirements. The Nyx attaches easily to many different vehicles using the included chains; making it a versatile and durable tool for clearing debris in rough environments.

Self Levelling Suspension & Onboard Debris Bins

$26,989.99 USD

Available in 1 size: Baffin 95″

Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…

Maximize Safety and Speed with the new industry standard for heavy truck magnetic sweeping

The Baffin magnetic sweeper is designed to be the premier front mounted heavy commercial truck magnet on the market. It’s suspension system keeps the magnet planted at the right height through hard turns and over bumps to eliminate the need for constant height adjustment. The Baffin also has a clean-off system that allows drivers to empty the magnet quickly and safely from the truck cab without ever having to get out of the truck or handle debris.

With a maximum pickup height of 10.75”, the Baffin is well suited to collect any metal debris up to 25 km/h (~15 mph) at the recommended sweeping height of 2” inches.

And the two on-board removable 1.65 cubic foot debris bins allow for the 95” inch wide magnet to be cleaned off multiple times before the bins need to be emptied. This increases efficiency by letting the magnet spend more time sweeping. And by easily keeping the magnet clear of debris there is more power available to collect debris which further increases efficiency.

Sweeping height adjustment (recommended 2”-5” inches) is done using stroke control blocks on the hydraulic cylinders. Moving from sweeping height to the travelling height of 10.5” inches just requires a cycle of the hydraulics (this position can be maintained by inserting all the supplied stroke control blocks or you may rely on the hydraulic system to keep the magnet suspended).

Adaptable Magnetic Sweeping for Front End Loaders and Skid Steers

$16,729.99 USD

Available in 1 size: Sokoke 92″

Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…

The Sokoke magnetic sweeper is a bigger and stronger version of the existing Meerkat magnetic sweeper, The Sokoke is meant for tougher jobs and heavier equipment while also a viable option for skid steers. The bracket assemblies have pre-drilled bolt holes to accept one of five brackets available from Bluestreak Equipment. Allowing you to use the Sokoke on many popular front-end loader models or skid steers, depending on which bracket is purchased with the Sokoke.

This versatile magnetic sweeper has three 29”-inch x 9”-inch x 6.25”-inch magnet assemblies that pivot on UHMW bushings which allows the metal debris stuck on the stainless-steel debris pan to be separated from the magnetic field by swinging the magnets away from the debris pan using gravity. This clean-off system allows the operator to raise the Sokoke over a scrap bin and empty the debris off by tipping it forward just like emptying a bucket. 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.

Heavy-Duty Off-Road Tow-Behind Magnet. Clean Off with a Push of a Button!

$16,189.99 USD

Available in 1 size: Aardvark 96″

Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…

The Aardvark Magnetic Sweeper is designed for landfill sites, construction sites, access roads, rail trails, mining areas or any larger rough terrain areas. With urethane foam filled flat free wheels, heavy duty construction. With a 12” maximum pickup height using a 2.5” nail the Aardvark has plenty of power to clean up metal debris in the toughest conditions.

This unit is packed with off-road features, such as sweeping height control, inset wheels and a torsion ride suspension system to smooth out rough terrain. The Aardvark Heavy Duty Tow-Behind Magnetic Sweeper also features a 12-volt automatic push button clean off system which makes cleaning off debris from the sweeper easy and automatic.

The magnet housing is fully enclosed, offering a level of protection around the magnet. This means you don’t have to worry about metal getting all over the magnet. The Aardvark also has wrap around function which retains collected debris even if the 14-gauge aluminum debris pan hits the ground while sweeping. This makes the Aardvark magnetic sweeper an excellent option for cleaning up metal debris when terrain gets tough.

Power & Durability in an 82 Inch Width. Similar to the Yacare Only Bigger!

$14,029.99 USD

Available in 1 sweeper width: Caiman 82″

Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…

The Caiman magnetic sweeper is one step up from the Yacare magnetic sweeper.

It is like the Yacare because it has an enclosed magnet and Dual Spring Assisted Debris Release Handles, but it's wider at 82 inch wide and has much more power with 50% more magnets.

More power and wider sweeping width makes it a good choice for towing behind pickup trucks, larger tractors and UTVs such as John Deere Gators, Kubota side by sides, etc.

The Caiman also has solid 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 torsion ride suspension system increases control in rough terrain and reduces stress on the sweeper and tow vehicle’s chassis.

Remote – Controlled Clean off & Height Adjustment!

$47,919.99 USD

Available in 1 size: Mammoth 68″

Get prices, specs, photos, videos, reviews and more…

Built to Retrieve Ball Milling Steel Abrasive Material

The Mammoth magnetic sweeper is built to clear big spaces quickly, the powerful 12” x 12” x 68” alternating pole C8 magnetic assembly can hold huge amounts of metallic debris before needing to be cleaned off and can pick up a 2.5” nail from 16” off the ground. The Mammoth can retrieve even the most elusive debris types including the nickel/steel balls used in material processing from within its 2” – 7” sweeping range.

Height adjustment and clean off is just as heavy duty as the magnetic power, these functions can be controlled from the tow vehicle using a wireless remote that activates the 12v 3000psi hydraulic system that controls magnet position and trailer height.

Comes standard with lights & fenders, on-board battery charger, and pintle ring hitch. Debris digging rake and grader attachments are optional accessories that extend the function of the Mammoth to grooming roads and industrial yards with gravel or packed surfaces.
