The magnetic sweeper that started it all and is chosen by more companies over any other brand.
Fact: Magnetic Sweepers reduce maintenance costs and eliminate flat tires by over 70% at airport terminals, loading docks and work sites. Magnetic sweepers eliminate dangerous ferrous metal debris while service vehicles perform daily duties. Commonly referred to as “FOD Magnets” (Foreign Object Debris) in the military and aviation world, you can learn more by reviewing improvements in US Air Force FOD incidents using Shields FOD Magnets. See our Market Data to learn more.
