PowerLift Magnet 800 lb Capacity
The Mag-Mate PNL0800 is a permanent lifting magnet rated for an 800 lb maximum flat load capacity. It serves workshops and job sites that need to move heavy steel plates or structural sections without slings or clamps. The On/Off handle provides instant engagement and release for efficient material handling. It operates reliably down to -10 Degrees F for cold environments.
On/Off Handle Changes Workflow
The manual activation handle lets a single operator secure and release loads in seconds, removing the delay of rigging chains or straps. This direct control reduces handling time on repetitive lifts such as loading plates onto a cutting table. The bail dimensions of 1 3/4 in inside width and 2 3/8 in inside length accept standard crane hooks or forklift attachments. No external power source is required for operation.
1/4 in Minimum Thickness Decides Fit
The magnet requires a minimum material thickness of 1/4 in to activate, so it will not engage thin sheet metal or heavily corroded surfaces. Full 800 lb capacity is only reached on flat material at least 3 in thick, while round stock is limited to a 400 lb maximum round load capacity. Verify your workpiece thickness and geometry before specifying this lifter. Buyers needing to lift thinner gauge steel cannot use this model.

Questions about this item
Does the lifting magnet require any periodic maintenance or replacement parts during its service life?
The magnet uses a permanent magnetic circuit with an On/Off handle for activation and has no consumable components or scheduled replacement intervals.
What is the first capacity limit reached when the magnet is used continuously at its maximum rating?
The 800 lb flat-load limit is the primary rating; for round material the capacity drops to 400 lb, so the round-load limit is reached first if the workpiece is cylindrical.
How much heat does the magnet generate and does it need cooling when run all day in a workshop?
The permanent magnet produces no heat during operation and operates from -10 °F upward without any cooling requirement.
