Heavy Steel Mill Duty Designed Magnets for Handling Hot or Cold Billets, Slabs, and Rail WALKER billet and rail handling magnets are available in a wide range of sizes to accommodate your application. Because the majority of our magnets are welded, fabricated designs, we can customize the size as well as many optional features. There are two basic magnetic circuits that we use in the designing and building of these magnets; the Grabber three pole and the Grabber two pole designs. STANDARD FEATURES: • 230 volts DC input • 75% duty cycle on ambient steel • Class “H” Insulating Materials •...

3-Pole Grabber The 3-Pole Grabber (tri polar) design was developed over 80 years ago to help mills that were having difficulty lifting full layers of billets or rails due to the air gaps between the magnets’ face and the billets/ rails. These gaps are not unusual in normal steel mill production and it was time consuming to make return trips to retrieve warped billets that were not lifted the first time. WALKER’s engineers designed billet magnets with very high penetrating power that are able to “snap-up” the warped billets, making full, dynamic lifts. The 3-Pole GRABBER (tri-polar) design...
