FAQs

What is the lifting capacity of the magnet?

The magnet can support up to 130kg vertically when in flush contact with a mild steel surface.

What type of rope is included?

The included rope is a 10-meter-long polyester rope with a 4mm diameter.

Can I use this magnet for magnet fishing?

Yes, this magnet is specifically designed for magnet fishing and retrieving ferrous items.

What are the dimensions of the magnet?

The magnet is 125mm in diameter and 100mm tall, including the M14 eyebolt.

Is the magnet resistant to chipping or cracking?

Yes, the pot magnet design and chrome-plated steel shell make it resistant to chipping and cracking.

What should I do if the magnet gets stuck?

Slide the magnet sideways to break the magnetic bond, or use gloves for a better grip.

Troubleshooting

Magnet won't lift the object.

Ensure the object is made of a ferrous metal. Check for any obstructions between the magnet and the object. Ensure the contact surface is flush.

Rope breaks.

Inspect the rope before each use for wear and tear. Ensure the weight of the object does not exceed the rope's breaking strength (420kg).

Magnet sticks to the surface and is difficult to remove.

Slide the magnet sideways to break the magnetic bond rather than attempting to pull it directly away from the surface. Use gloves for a better grip.
