OVERVIEW

Enhance Material Handling Safety with Lincoln Electric

The Lincoln Electric K3312-1 Magnetic Hand Lifter is an essential safety tool designed for professional fabrication environments and industrial maintenance operations. In the metalworking industry, handling raw materials poses significant risks, including lacerations from sharp edges and burns from recently welded or cut steel. This magnetic lifter mitigates those risks by providing a secure, handle-actuated grip on the material, effectively extending the operator's reach and keeping hands at a safe distance from hazards.

Engineered for efficiency, the device utilizes advanced switchable magnetic technology. Unlike traditional permanent magnets that attract metal debris constantly, this tool features a simple 1/2 turn knob mechanism. When turned off, the magnetic field collapses, allowing metal shavings and fines to fall away instantly, ensuring the tool remains clean and ready for the next task. This feature is particularly valuable in high-throughput shops where equipment maintenance time must be minimized.

The K3312-1 is not limited to flat sheet metal; its base is designed with a multi-angle surface, making it equally effective for gripping round stock and pipe. This versatility makes it a go-to solution for diverse applications ranging from structural steel layout to small parts positioning. Compact and lightweight, it fits easily into tight spaces where larger clamps or cranes cannot reach, providing a manual lifting solution that bridges the gap between hand-carrying and heavy machinery.

Key Industrial Benefits

  • Safety Compliance: Reduces direct contact with hazardous surfaces, supporting workplace safety protocols.
  • Operational Efficiency: Instant on/off actuation speeds up material movement and positioning tasks.
  • Versatility: One tool handles both flat plate and round tubing effectively.

FAQ

No, the 'Electric' in the name refers to the brand Lincoln Electric. The tool uses a switchable permanent magnet operated mechanically by a knob.

Yes, the magnetic surface is designed with a multi-angle profile that allows it to securely grip both flat surfaces and round stock like pipes.

Yes, one of the primary purposes of this tool is to allow operators to handle hot steel without direct contact, protecting hands and gloves from heat damage.

Cleaning is very easy. Simply turn the knob to the 'Off' position to deactivate the magnetic field, and the metal shavings will fall off or can be easily wiped away.

While specific weight ratings can vary by material thickness and surface condition, this tool is designed as a 'Hand Lifter' for manual manipulation of parts that a person would typically lift, providing a handle for better grip and safety.

No, this is a magnetic tool and will only work on ferromagnetic materials like mild steel. It will not grip aluminum or non-magnetic stainless steel.

It uses permanent rare-earth magnet technology that does not require electricity and retains its strength over time, provided it is not subjected to extreme temperatures above its rating.

No, this is a hand tool designed for manual positioning and lifting. It should not be used as a rigging device for overhead crane lifting.
