There are three types of ATV magnets differentiated by their mounting position on the ATV;
Attach to the front of the ATV like a snowplow.
Attach behind the ATV using a ball or wagon style pin hitch.
Magnets that are hung underneath the ATV between the front and rear wheels
The Wrasse hanging magnetic bar is designed for use on “flat terrain”. It is extremely versatile because it comes in many different sizes, in terms of strength and width. The Wrasse hanging magnet bars are available in widths from 26” – 98” inches and in 3 different magnet housing sizes: 2” x 5” inches, 3” x 3” inches, and 4.5” x 4.5” inches each level of housing size offers more magnetic strength than the previous.
The Wrasse can hang from almost any piece of equipment if the ground the vehicle traverses is fairly even so that the magnet bar doesn’t hit the ground all the time which can cause damage to the housing. The Wrasse hanging magnet bar functions very well at allowing the equipment operators to clean environments while they do their normal tasks.
There are also optional Quick Clean Off Sleeves available for the Wrasse. A PVC Quick Clean Off Sleeve is available for the 3″x 3″ inch and 4.5″ x 4.5″ inch models which makes cleaning debris off the magnet bar easy. A Heavy-Duty Aluminum Quick Clean Off Sleeve is available for some 4.5” x 4.5” inch sweeping widths, this sleeve also assists in cleaning debris from the magnet and increases the durability of the sweeper.
Available in 3 magnet housing sizes: Wrasse 2″x5″, Wrasse 3″x 3″, Wrasse 4.5″ x 4.5″
Available in 7 sweeping widths: 26″, 38″, 50″, 62″, 74″, 86″, 98″

The HOG magnetic sweeper is the little brother of the Rhino. Whereas the Rhino is designed for applications requiring significant pickup power, such as construction sites, horse arenas and small landfills where there is either significant amounts of debris or the debris needs to be pulled up from under dirt, the Hog is designed for the somewhat lighter use applications such as gravel and dirt parking lots, rental center users, trucking terminal yards and farm driveways and yards.
Easily tow this compact and light magnet with an ATV, UTV, lawn mower, golf cart, or forklift. The 62″ width of the HOG is perfect for these tow vehicles because these vehicles are this same general width.
Optional accessories for the HOG are the Quick Clean Off Sleeve which aids in cleaning collected debris from the magnet and the Debris Digging Rake built to dislodge debris embedded in the ground so it can be collected by the magnet.
Available in 1 size: HOG 62″

The Rhino tow behind magnetic sweeper, known as the “Big Brother” of the HOG magnetic sweeper, is ready for some very severe duty conditions with a range of options and off road features.
It’s offered in three sweeping widths of five, six and seven feet wide and the ability to continuously adjust sweeping height from zero to five and a half inches. The Rhino was designed as a heavy-duty sweeper for off road conditions, in dirt and gravel, and uneven terrain.
It’s all the little extra features that add to the Rhino’s popularity, such as the adjustable hitch height so that when hitching the Rhino to a tow vehicle is doesn’t matter what height the hitch is on the tow vehicle the Rhino can still be held level for optimum performance.
You can add accessories such as the PVC Quick Clean Off Sleeve or ultra durable Aluminum Quick Clean Off Sleeve to allow very quick and easy clean off. You can also add a Debris Digging Rake accessory to dislodge embedded debris to aid in the pickup process.
Available in 3 sizes: Rhino 62″, Rhino 74″, Rhino 86″

I love the Longhorn! It just tracks the terrain so well up or down even steeper grades because of the casters. It looks awesome, performs great, there’s nothing to screw up, and makes so much sense to pick up the debris before driving over it. To me it makes sense, you can buy the whole ATV and the Longhorn combined for the price of some big front mounts or big tow behinds, and this is so versatile and can do the same job.

Hanging magnets are by far the biggest bang for your dollar, you don’t need a very wide one for an ATV, but get the strongest one, the 4.5×4.5, or the 3×3, so you can hang it a bit higher, you’ll be shocked by what they pick up, I know I was the first time I saw one mounted and used. I thought it would seem crazy having a magnet mounted under the ATV, that it would rattle or knock around but it wasn’t, it worked great.

If you have an extensive debris problem that will almost certainly cause a flat tire if you run over the debris, then a front mount magnetic sweeper is a necessity and may be the only consideration in your choice of magnet. A front mounted magnetic sweeper will pick up debris like nails before you run over it, something that seems obviously and practically much better than running over the debris before picking it up.
While picking up debris before running over it seems intuitively much better, it’s also a much more complex solution, because it requires a much more complex mounting system and weight must be kept down while still maintaining performance. Hanging magnets are the most cost effective because a hanging magnet is essentially just a big magnet bar without most of the other mechanism’s that accompany either a tow behind magnet or a front mount magnet.
Given the other tasks the ATV is used for are you able to leave a tow behind or front mount or hanging mid mounted magnet on the ATV all the time. If not, then the tow behind solution may be best for you because it can be easily and quickly hitched up when needed. A hanging magnet or front mount magnet will be a bit more involved and take more time to mount and demount from the ATV when you want to. On the other hand, if you can mount a magnet permanently on your ATV, it’s going to work for you all the time while you’re driving around and it saves you the time of temporarily mounting and demounting it. Therefore if you can leave a magnet mounted, a permanently mounted solution is usually better.
A magnet may work really well at picking up debris, but how easy is it to clean off? Think through how you would clean the magnet off step by step. Make sure it makes sense to you and your situation. We try and do this for you so that clean off isn’t a difficult or time consuming task, but some manufacturers don’t. Pay attention to the details of how this will work from start to finish, right up to the point of getting the debris in the garbage or scrap bin.
You are not going to be cleaning your magnet off constantly, so it’s important that when your magnet does pick up a nail or screw that the magnet secures the debris so that it won’t fall off if the magnet is suddenly shaken because of a bump or if the bottom of the magnet hits the ground and the debris is wiped backward on the magnet. The last thing you want is for the debris to fall off again. Make sure your magnet has some feature like our “Wrap Around Feature”, it not only makes sure debris doesn’t get wiped off the bottom of the magnet, it makes the debris holding capacity higher and you’ll find in practice that most of your debris ends up on the side of your magnet not the bottom of it. And that’s a good indication to you why we have this feature.

ATV’s might not seem like an obvious choice as a vehicle to attach a magnetic sweeper to, but the combination is more effective than one might first imagine.
ATV’s have become incredibly common, not only as pleasure recreational vehicles but as work vehicles because they can go anywhere, transport relatively easily, cost less than other vehicles, and are easy to hop off and on quickly in situations where workers need to get in and out of a vehicle all the time in the performance of their work. Not only all these things, but add to it that people just simply enjoy riding them and it’s a potent combination.
ATV’s are being used in obvious situations such as on farm operations, and to get around larger industrial sites, but they are also being used by the military, Fire/Rescue teams, disaster relief organizations such as The Salvation Army, Police organizations, Border Patrol, lifeguards/beach patrols, etc.
Not all of these ATV users would need or use magnets but there are several of them where magnets do add substantial value because of the high occurrence and prevalence of debris, particularly on farm applications, large industrial and commercial sites and disaster relief clean-up operations.
If you really have embedded debris and want to dig it up then the Debris Digging Rake will do it but you can only use a Debris Digging Rake with a tow-behind. Other than loosening up buried debris or in hardened ground to make it easier for the magnet to pick it up, the Debris Digging rake also grooms the ground some also, smoothing out the lumps and filling in holes some. It’s also great because you can see where you’ve already swept.
If you’re choosing a Hanging Magnet, consider a sleeve to make clean off quicker and easier. Helps protect sweeper housing when hitting hard surfaces. Constructed out of durable PVC and molded to wrap around the magnetic housing. Locks in place and will not move when sweeper is in use.
