Manual Lifting Magnet 180 lb Capacity
The Mag-Mate manual lifting magnet is built for garage and shop tasks where ferrous parts must be moved without clamps or slings. Its neodymium magnet delivers a 180 lb maximum load capacity, making it suited for retrieving tools, hardware or scrap metal from bins, trays or hard-to-reach areas. The loop handle provides a secure grip for one-handed operation in tight spaces.
Installation and Common Issues
No mounting or wiring is required; the magnet is ready to use straight from the box. Engage the magnet by placing it flat on the workpiece, then release by prying the edge away with the manual lever mechanism. The most frequent problem is reduced hold on painted, rusted or uneven surfaces, which can lower the effective capacity well below the rated figure.
Maximum Load Capacity 180 lb
The 180 lb rating is the single specification that determines whether this tool fits the job. It applies only to clean, flat, low-carbon steel at least 1/2 in thick; thinner, coated or irregular material will not reach that limit. Buyers who need to lift heavier plate, sheet or round stock should select a higher-capacity magnet.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the 180 lb magnet is holding securely after positioning it on a steel plate?
The manual pry release will not disengage until you deliberately lever it open, confirming full magnetic grip on clean, flat ferrous surfaces.
What comes with the Mag-Mate 180 lb lifting magnet and what must I supply?
The unit includes the neodymium magnet in a nylon housing with a loop handle; you supply the ferrous workpiece and any rigging or slings needed for the lift.
When should I choose the 180 lb loop-handle version instead of a higher-capacity model?
Select this model for loads up to 180 lb where a compact 7 1/2 in by 2 1/8 in footprint and manual pry release suit the application.
