Rectangular Magnets

(For Sheet, Plate, and Block Applications) This style of Electrically Controlled Permanent Lifting Magnet has the functionality to handle standard structural, plate, & block material.

Bipolar Magnets

(For Rounds, Angles, Structural, and Plate Applications) This unique style of Electrically Controlled Permanent Magnet has the functionality to handle standard structural / plate material but by adding customized pole shoes, the bipolar magnet can handle rounds and angle material as well.

Permadur Manual Magnets provide dependable lifting through a simple lever design with integrated safety locks. Built with rare-earth materials, they deliver strong capacity in a compact, rugged form. They require no external power, making them ideal for shops, fabrication yards, and field use.

• No power required
• Rugged, low-maintenance design
• Lever control with safety lock
• Compact and portable

BPM Style Manual Magnets

REM Style Manual Magnets

• Tri polar (TP) and Fivepole (FP) series of magnets for sheet, plate and block
• Bipolar (BP) series magnets for round, angles, structural, and plate
• REM/BPM for manual magnet applications

Trusted in production lines, automated handling systems, machine shops, and remote sites where reliable lifting is essential.

Because traditional lifting methods rely on mechanical rigging, manual labor, and complex setup, each move becomes a bottleneck. Slings and chains need careful placement and secure fastening; clamps and hooks can scratch or dent surfaces; often more than one operator is needed; and each lift requires time to rig, check safety, and maneuver. Over time, this slows down throughput and increases labor costs — not to mention the heightened safety risks in busy or fast-paced production environments

Permadur’s Lifting Magnets — both electro-permanent and manual models — provide a secure, efficient, and easy-to-use alternative. The electro-permanent versions combine magnetic lifting strength with the convenience of electric switching (power needed only to engage or release, and load remains secure even if power fails). The manual magnets offer rugged, low-maintenance lifting with a simple lever and safety-lock design and require no external power. These magnets quickly attach to ferrous materials and let a single operator lift and move heavy loads with minimal setup, no slings or chains, and no risk of surface damage.

Using Permadur Lifting Magnets transforms material handling: significantly faster load handling and turnarounds, reduced labor and rigging costs, simpler operation, and fewer workers needed. Safety increases as risk of dropped loads and manual-lift injuries decreases; surface damage to steel is minimized; and overall productivity goes up — enabling smoother workflow, faster job cycles, and lower operational costs per lift.
