These on/off permanent lifts offer strength in a lightweight, compact package. Each line of lifting magnets in the FX family of products has been specifically designed for maximum performance by user application. The size, shape and dimension of the parts you'll primarily be lifting - whether flat, curved, or circular-shaped - will determine the best FX lift magnet for you.
On all magnets in the series, the unique handle design only requires a 90° rotation to either engage or disengage the magnet (versus the 120°or even 180°required on most on/off lifting magnets), making it easy for operators to use in applications where the magnet is lifting something from inside a bin or a deep trough. The handle also features a positive lock-on/lock-off mechanism that requires the operator to manually switch between the two states. This prevents the handle from being turned only partially on, or from being accidentally bumped to the “off” position and dropping the load pre-maturely.

FX Models:
FX - For primarily lifting thick, flat stock, with the occasional need to lift something curved, such as a pipe, shaft, or billet.
FXP - Mostly for thin sheets, tanks/containers and thin wall pipe
FXR - Mostly round/curved surfaces such as shafts, thick wall pipe, billets and occasional flat material
FXV- Mainly angle iron (90°), I-beam web location where you need the handle rotation higher and hot parts up to 482°F
