Plate lifting magnet

Welderpaul · May 27, 2014

I'm trying to find a plate lifting magnet to go on our new overhead crane. There's loads of Eclipse ones that are pricey and won't lift that much.

Ideally i'm after a 1T SWL one, not bothered about used as long as its in good nick - we can get it LOLER tested.

Any ideas of where to look? Tried a few local auctions, ebay and a couple of lifting gear places but the prices don't make a Yorkshireman happy

I can ask one of my customers (Large Fab/Weld shop) locally if you want, what they use, get them from etc. and see what they recommend?
They have 5 or 10t crane coverage over all of their bays.
I look after most of their machinery, well, at least when they pay their bills I do!
