Mag-Mate BL1500 Lifting Magnet

The Mag-Mate BL1500 is a permanent lifting magnet rated for a maximum flat load capacity of 1500 lb. It is designed for workshops and job sites that need to move flat ferrous plates and blocks without slings or clamps. The pry-off handle provides a mechanical release so the operator can break the magnetic hold with one hand.

Practical limits of the magnetic interface

The magnet requires a minimum material thickness of 3/16 in to activate and to reach its full rated capacity. It is not rated for round loads, so pipe, shaft or curved surfaces cannot be lifted safely with this unit. The bail inside dimensions of 2 3/4 in by 2 3/4 in restrict the hook or shackle size that can be used for rigging.

Deciding specification: 1500 lb flat capacity

The single figure that determines suitability is the 1500 lb maximum flat load capacity. If the workpiece exceeds this weight the magnet will not hold; if the part is thinner than 3/16 in the magnet will not activate. Buyers who need to lift heavier plates or any round stock must select a different device.

Questions about this item

How do I know if the 1500 lb flat-load rating matches what I need to lift?

The 1500 lb maximum applies to flat steel at least 3/16 in thick; round stock is not rated for this magnet.

What does the 1500 lb capacity mean once the magnet is on a real workpiece?

It is the peak hold on clean flat steel 3/16 in or thicker; paint, rust, air gaps or thinner material will reduce the actual hold.

What mounting interface does the 2 3/4 in bail use and what does it limit?

The square bail accepts a standard hook or shackle up to 2 3/4 in wide, limiting the rigging hardware you can attach directly.
