Magnetic Metalworking Angles and Lifting Devices
March 1, 2014
Magnetic fixturing and hand lifters minimize hand contact with hot or sharp-edged steel.
Lincoln Electric offers a line of magnetic fixturing tools and hand lifters in its Radius tool Welding Gear product group. The magnetic fixturing tools can be used to position steel for tack welding or other pre- or post-weld operations. They are also suited for cutting and grinding applications.
The magnetic fixtures are available in three different models that are intended for different materials thickness or applications. They are all easy to operate, and with a 1/2 turn of the knob the magnet can be toggled on and off for part removal and cleaning. The compact size and light weight are useful for tight spaces.
Lincoln Electric also offers a manual hand lifter that is designed for small steel part lifting and sheet dragging. The manual hand lifter does not require batteries or electricity. A half turn of the knob switches the hand lifter magnet on and off.
"These devices make it easy to align and hold small parts and sheet metal in place for tack welding," said Jamy Bulan, Lincoln Electric Product Manager, Commercial Products. "Using the manual hand lifter can reduce contact with hot or sharp-edged steel."
