Product Description
Connect Work Tools Hydraulic Magnet W/ Chain | Model CM42IC | Width 42" | 14 To 32 Tons | For Excavators
DESCRIPTION
Maximize material handling efficiency with the Connect Work Tools CM42IC Hydraulic Magnet with Chain, purpose-built for excavators operating in demanding scrap, demolition, and recycling environments. Designed for 14 to 32-ton excavators, this 42-inch hydraulic magnet delivers powerful, consistent magnetic performance without the need for external generators or electrical connections.
Its fully self-contained hydraulic system integrates seamlessly with your excavator’s auxiliary circuit, simplifying setup and reducing downtime. The heavy-duty chain configuration enhances flexibility when handling irregular, loose, or uneven ferrous materials making it ideal for scrapyards, rail maintenance, and construction debris cleanup.
Engineered for durability and productivity, the CM42IC features a robust mounting system, quick hitch compatibility, and a high-output 5.5 kW magnetic system to ensure secure lifting and efficient material recovery. Whether you're sorting scrap metal or clearing demolition sites, this hydraulic magnet offers a reliable, low-maintenance solution that boosts jobsite performance and operational efficiency.
Key Features
- Self-Contained Hydraulic Operation – No External Power Needed: Eliminates the need for external generators or electrical hookups by running directly from your excavator’s auxiliary hydraulic system. This simplifies installation, reduces setup time, and minimizes potential failure points, ensuring reliable operation in remote or demanding jobsite conditions where efficiency and uptime are critical.
- Heavy-Duty Chain Design – Flexible Material Handling: Equipped with rugged, high-strength chains, this magnet excels at handling irregular, loose, or awkwardly shaped ferrous materials. The flexible chain configuration allows better surface contact and adaptability, making it ideal for scrapyards, recycling centers, and demolition debris management.
- 42-Inch Magnet Diameter – Optimal Coverage Area: The 42-inch diameter provides an ideal balance between lifting capacity and maneuverability, allowing operators to efficiently handle large volumes of material while maintaining precision in confined or complex jobsite environments.
- 5.5 kW Magnetic Power – Strong Lifting Force: Delivers consistent and powerful magnetic performance, ensuring secure lifting and transport of ferrous materials. This high-output system improves load retention, reduces material loss, and enhances overall operational efficiency.
- Excavator Compatibility – 14 to 32 Tons: Designed to fit a wide range of excavators, this magnet supports carriers from 14 to 32 tons, making it a versatile solution for contractors managing mixed fleets or varying jobsite requirements.
- Optimized Hydraulic Flow Range – 10.5 to 40 GPM: Compatible with a broad range of hydraulic systems, ensuring smooth and efficient performance across different excavator models. This flexibility helps maintain consistent operation without requiring system modifications.
- Quick Hitch Compatibility – Faster Attachment Changes: Supports quick hitch systems for rapid switching between attachments. This reduces downtime, increases productivity, and allows operators to adapt quickly to changing jobsite demands.
- Durable Industrial Construction – Built for Tough Jobs: Manufactured with heavy-duty materials to withstand harsh working conditions, including demolition sites, scrapyards, and construction zones. Ensures long service life and dependable performance under continuous use.
- No Electrical Wiring – Reduced Failure Risk: By eliminating electrical components and wiring, this magnet reduces maintenance complexity and avoids common electrical issues, enhancing reliability in rugged environments.
- Secure Mounting System – Stable Operation: Includes a bracket with pins for secure attachment to the excavator, ensuring stability during operation and minimizing movement or detachment risks while handling heavy loads.
- Improved Productivity – Faster Material Recovery: Enhances efficiency by quickly attracting and lifting ferrous materials, reducing cycle times and allowing operators to process more material in less time.
- Low Maintenance Design – Minimized Downtime: Engineered for durability with fewer service requirements, helping reduce maintenance costs and keep your equipment running longer with minimal interruptions.
- Versatile Applications – Multi-Industry Use: Perfect for scrap handling, recycling operations, demolition cleanup, and railroad maintenance, making it a valuable tool across multiple industries.
- Compact Yet Powerful – Efficient Jobsite Performance: Combines a compact footprint with high magnetic output, enabling easy maneuverability without compromising lifting strength or performance.
