Product Details

At a Glance

A magnetic sweeper (also called a magnetic broom) is a push, tow or forklift-mounted tool that collects ferrous scrap like iron chips, nails, nuts, screws, tacks, barbed wire and staples from floors and yards in a single pass. PML's sweeper range spans forklift-mounted, heavy-duty tow-behind and walk-behind models for workshops, construction sites and parking areas.

Magnetic sweepers, also called magnetic brooms, exist because ferrous scrap is invisible until it does damage. One pass collects iron chips, shavings, nails, nuts, screws, tacks, barbed wire and staples before they reach a tyre, a shoe or a child's hand.

PML sweepers are the quick, convenient and safe way to clean floors, driveways, construction areas, walkways, factory aisles, loading docks, parking lots, playgrounds, party lawns, cricket grounds and more. This page covers the full range, six series, each built for a different way of working. For port-scale and large-yard operations, see our removing ferrous debris from ports & yards page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which series should I choose?

Walk-behind cleanup: FS (wipe-clean) or SR (quick release). Heavy debris: RH. Sweeping from a forklift or vehicle: SW (wipe-clean) or SH (with release). Small spaces, home or office: SM. The specification table at the top compares every model.

Do magnetic sweepers need power?

No. Every series uses permanent ceramic magnets, nothing to charge, power or maintain.

What's the difference between quick-release and regular models?

Quick-release models (SR, RH, SH) drop collected scrap with one pull or slide, so you never touch it. Regular models (FS, SM, SW) are cleared by wiping the magnet face with gloves or a shop towel.

Can they be used outside the factory?

Yes, driveways, parking lots, playgrounds, lawns and sports grounds all benefit; the FS series even works through water.

Is there a mini sweeper for home or office use?

Yes, the SM series is a rectangular mini sweeper in 14.5" or 27" widths, sized for home, shop or office use.

What's the strongest sweeper in the range?

The SH-12 hang-type model, rated up to 135kg lifting capacity, built for forklift-mounted heavy debris collection.

Case Study: A Custom Sweeper Built for Port-Scale Operations

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Limited

Custom Magnetic Tow Sweeper, heavy-duty, trailer-mounted, port road-surface cleaning

Problem: Adani Ports needed an efficient way to remove ferrous metal debris from operational port road surfaces. Manual collection was slow and ineffective for small ferrous particles, and the site needed a robust, towable magnetic sweeper capable of covering large areas efficiently while improving cleanliness and safety.
Solution: PML engineered a heavy-duty, custom-built Magnetic Tow Sweeper for port infrastructure conditions. Two magnetic configurations, NdFeB and Ferrite, were developed and evaluated, in a trailer-mounted design with an easy unloading system for efficient large-area collection with minimal manual effort.
Result: Both configurations proved effective at ferrous metal collection under real operating conditions, improving debris recovery and enabling reliable, mechanized sweeping across the port's road network, reducing manual effort while supporting safer, cleaner site operations. PML has since supplied this custom Tow Sweeper design to multiple Adani port facilities, including Adani Vizhinjam Port.
