Mag-Mate BL1000 Lifting Magnet 1000 lb

SKU CH-KJYB-4MTHR

A 1000 lb flat-capacity lifting magnet with pry-off handle activation and 3/16 in minimum thickness requirement

  • Lifts 1000 lb flat loads with permanent magnet power
  • Activates on steel just 3/16 in thick for thin sheet handling
  • Pry-off handle releases the load instantly without tools
  • Operates down to -148 °F for extreme cold environments
  • Compact 6 1/2 in magnet body fits tight workspaces

What it is

The Mag-Mate BL1000 is a permanent lifting magnet rated for a 1,000 lb maximum flat load capacity. It is built for workshops and job sites that need to move thick steel plate or flat structural sections without slings or clamps. The unit activates with a pry-off handle that locks the magnetic field in place. It is not suited for round stock or for sheet thinner than 3/16 in.

Build and mounting

The magnet body measures 6 1/2 in long, 4 1/2 in wide and 1 5/8 in high, with an overall length of 11 in including the bail. A square bail with 2 3/4 in inside dimensions accepts a standard hook or shackle for crane or hoist attachment. The 11 3/8 in handle provides enough leverage to break the field cleanly when the load is set down. Operation is rated down to -148 Degrees F.

Deciding specification

The single figure that determines fit is the 1,000 lb flat capacity combined with the 3/16 in minimum thickness for both activation and full rated hold. If the material is thinner or the load exceeds that limit, the magnet will not develop its rated force.

Steel must be at least 3/16 in thick; the bail opening is 2 3/4 in wide by 2 3/4 in long for hook attachment.

How is the pry-off handle activated, and what step do users often miss?
