Cheap Lee Valley Industrial Magnetic Sweep

The 18″ wide body of this magnetic sweep can pick up about two pounds of material, whether it is metal shavings in a machine shop or fasteners on a construction site. When the quick-release handle on the aluminum housing is pulled up, the magnet bar withdraws to ensure quick clearing of a load.

The handle of the sweep adjusts between 30″ and 45″ and is secured with a butterfly thumbscrew. The wheel axles are adjustable making it possible to change the body height from 1″ clearance for use on floors or concrete, to 2″ clearance for collecting material on uneven soil or grass.
