The Wheeled Magnetic Sweeper Tool picks up ferrous material (e.g., nails, nuts, bolts, screws, washers, metal scraps) from the shop floor or around a machining area. The device consists of a magnetic bar (14 to 48 inches wide, depending on the model) in a two-wheeled, stainless steel or plastic housing with a long handle. Most types have a release lever or chain that, when pushed or pulled, causes the picked-up debris to fall away; others release by wiping the magnet clean with a heavy shop towel. Some models come with bracket assemblies on top of the housing that accommodate the tines of a forklift.
Cost range: $85-$310, depending on size, pick-up capacity, etc.
