Overview - Forklift Mounted Magnetic Sweeper

Forklift Mounted Magnetic Sweeper

 

The Forklift Mounted Magnetic Sweeper is a heavy-duty material handling accessory designed to provide efficient ferrous debris removal across workshops, factories, warehouses, yards, and production floors. Engineered to mount securely onto a forklift, this magnetic sweeper uses a powerful permanent magnetic bar to attract and collect nails, screws, metal shavings, bolts, and other steel fragments as the forklift travels, helping to maintain clean, hazard-free surfaces with minimal manual effort.

Constructed for industrial environments, the magnetic sweeper is built with a robust housing and strong magnetic elements capable of handling large volumes of metal debris. The unit’s design allows it to be quickly attached and detached from the forklift carriage, making it a practical solution for daily cleaning routes, preventative maintenance, and continual floor debris management. By capturing ferrous contaminants before they damage tyres, equipment, or products, this sweeper improves safety, reduces equipment downtime, and extends the life of floor assets.

The Forklift Mounted Magnetic Sweeper is ideal for operations where fast, hands-free magnetic sweeping over large areas is needed and where regular floor debris removal can save time and cost.


Typical Applications

The Forklift Mounted Magnetic Sweeper is commonly used for:

  • Warehouse floor sweeping to collect ferrous debris across aisles and bays

  • Factory and production flooring where metal fragments accumulate

  • Maintenance routes in industrial sites to reduce hazards

  • Loading docks and yard areas to protect forklift tyres and vehicles

  • Manufacturing environments where sheet, parts, or machining debris needs removal

Its ability to cover wide areas quickly while mounted to forklift equipment makes it especially useful in environments with heavy traffic and frequent metal debris build-up.


Why Choose a Forklift Mounted Magnetic Sweeper

The Forklift Mounted Magnetic Sweeper combines powerful magnetic attraction, heavy-duty construction, and hands-free sweeping capability in one effective system. Mounted to forklift equipment, it turns routine forklift movement into continuous debris collection, helping operations maintain cleaner floors with less labour. The strong, permanent magnet eliminates the need for external power, while the rugged build delivers dependable performance in industrial settings, making it a solid choice for facilities seeking efficient, large-area ferrous debris control.
