Camlok TPM Permanent Load Lifting Magnets

100kg to 3000kg Flat WLL | Permanent Magnet โ€” No Power Required | Lever-Activated On/Off | For Flat and Round Stock | CE Marked

The Camlok TPM permanent load lifting magnet is a self-contained lifting solution requiring no power source โ€” the magnetic field is generated by permanent magnets internally and switched on or off mechanically via a lever. Available in seven capacity ratings from 100 kg up to 3000 kg flat-stock WLL (with reduced ratings for round stock), the TPM is ideal for handling steel plates, sheets, blocks and cylindrical stock in fabrication, manufacturing and material handling environments.

Key Features

  • Permanent magnet โ€” no power required โ€” self-contained design with internal permanent magnets means no electrical supply, no battery, and no risk of magnetic failure on power loss.
  • Mechanical lever activation โ€” on/off via a manual lever โ€” straightforward to operate, with a positive locking position to prevent accidental release under load.
  • Seven capacity options โ€” from TPM 0.1 (100 kg flat) up to TPM 3.0 (3000 kg flat), with reduced ratings for round stock listed in the spec table.
  • Suitable for flat and round stock โ€” optimised for flat plate but rated for round cylindrical stock at a derated capacity (refer to spec table).
  • Robust forged housing โ€” designed for daily use in fabrication, manufacturing and warehouse environments.
  • Traceable identification โ€” each magnet bears a unique identification number for LOLER traceability.

CE Marked, UKCA Compliant & LOLER Ready

The Camlok TPM permanent lifting magnet is CE marked, UKCA compliant, and supplied with full documentation including a manufacturer's certificate, operating manual, and identification number for traceability. Fully compatible with LOLER 1998 and PUWER 1998 when correctly used and inspected.

Suitable Applications

Material handling in fabrication shops and steel stockholders โ€” moving plate, sheet, and bar stock between processes. Loading and unloading of laser cutting, plasma cutting, and CNC machining operations. Press shop and stamping operations where steel stock must be repositioned. Maintenance and machinery installation where a quick, certified lifting solution is needed. Not suitable for non-ferrous materials (aluminium, brass, copper, stainless 304/316) or materials with very thin sections relative to the magnet face.

How to Use Safely

  1. Inspect the magnet before each use. Check the body, magnetic faces, lever mechanism, locking pin, lifting eye and any safety latch for damage, wear or corrosion. Clean the magnetic face of any debris, oil or paint that could reduce contact.
  2. Verify the load: confirm the workpiece is a ferrous material (carbon steel) of suitable thickness, in good condition, and within the rated WLL for the surface type (flat or round) โ€” refer to the spec table. Apply appropriate derating factors for thin material, painted surfaces, rust or surface roughness.
  3. With the lever in the OFF position, place the magnet centrally on the workpiece. Ensure full contact between the magnet face and the load โ€” no gaps, no contamination.
  4. Engage the lever to the ON position fully and confirm the locking pin engages. The locking position prevents accidental release under load.
  5. Attach a suitably rated lifting chain or sling to the lifting eye via a shackle with safety pin.
  6. Apply load progressively. Test the holding force at a low lift height before proceeding to full lift.
  7. After lift, lower the load completely and ensure it is fully supported before disengaging the lever.
  8. Release the locking pin, return the lever to the OFF position, and remove the magnet from the workpiece.

Inspection and Maintenance

A visual inspection is required before every use. A thorough examination by a qualified engineer is required at least every 6 months in regular use, in accordance with LOLER 1998. Records of examination must be kept. Refer to the manufacturer's manual for detailed inspection and maintenance instructions, derating factors for use, and replacement schedules for any wearing components.

Warranty & Support

Supplied with manufacturer's certification, identification, and operating instructions. WOLFF Onsite offers post-sales support including spares, certified inspection, and replacement. Contact our team for advice on selection, sizing, and application-specific configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the TPM need electricity?

No. The TPM is a permanent lifting magnet โ€” the magnetic field is generated by internal permanent magnets. The lever mechanically switches the field on or off. No electrical supply or battery is required.

Q: What's the difference between the flat and round WLL ratings?

Flat WLL applies when the magnet is lifting flat plate or sheet with full contact across the magnet face. Round WLL applies to cylindrical stock where contact is reduced to a line (the cylinder's outer surface). Round-stock WLL is typically half the flat WLL โ€” always refer to the spec table.

Q: Can I use the TPM on stainless steel or aluminium?

The TPM is designed for ferromagnetic materials โ€” carbon steel and most low-alloy steels. It is not suitable for non-ferrous materials such as aluminium, brass, copper, or austenitic stainless steels (304/316). Magnetic stainless grades (e.g. 410, 430) may work at a derated capacity โ€” consult a competent person before use.

Q: What happens if the workpiece is painted, rusty, or rough?

Paint, rust, scale, and surface roughness reduce the magnetic contact and therefore the effective WLL. Apply appropriate derating factors and always test the holding force at a low lift height before proceeding. The manual provides specific guidance on derating factors.

Q: How often should the TPM be inspected?

A visual inspection is required before every use. A thorough examination by a qualified engineer is required at least every 6 months for magnets in regular use, in accordance with LOLER 1998. Records of examination must be kept.
