Attractor

Buying Guide: Magnetic Pick-Up Tools

How the Magnet Works
The strength of the magnet is on the edge of the tool, so the edges attract metal objects as you sweep the ground or move through grass. This lets you collect dropped parts without bending down. The tool is meant for ferrous metal, so it will not hold non-magnetic materials.

Length and Pull Rating
The 41 in. length lets you collect dropped parts while you stay upright. The 150 lb. pull rating describes how strongly the magnet holds metal. Measure the reach you need and check the pull rating before you choose a tool for heavier parts.
