48D309 - Walter Magnetic Stick Chip Collector

Efficient Metal Debris Removal with Walter Magnetic Stick

The Walter Surface Technologies Magnetic Stick (48D309) is an essential safety and maintenance tool designed for industrial environments where metalworking generates sharp debris. Known as the "Magstick," this tool utilizes a high-power permanent magnet to attract and hold steel filings, chips, and swarf, allowing operators to clean machinery and workspaces without ever touching hazardous materials with their hands.

Engineered for durability and ease of use, the Magnetic Stick features a simple yet effective design. The magnetic core is housed within a non-corrosive, durable tube. To use, simply wave the stick over the metal debris to collect it instantly. When ready to dispose of the collected material, the operator pulls the plunger handle, which retracts the magnet away from the tip, causing the debris to fall off cleanly into a recycling bin or waste container. This mechanism ensures that the magnet itself remains clean and free of buildup.

This tool is particularly valuable for cleaning hard-to-reach areas such as T-slots on milling machines, blind holes, and around drill press tables. By keeping hands away from sharp edges and hot chips, the Walter Magnetic Stick significantly reduces the risk of cuts and burns, promoting a safer workplace culture while maintaining equipment hygiene.

Key Applications

• Machine Cleaning: Removing chips from lathes, milling machines, and drill presses.
• Workspace Maintenance: Clearing workbenches and floors of ferrous debris.
• Parts Retrieval: Recovering small steel parts dropped in confined spaces.
• Safety Compliance: Reducing direct contact with sharp industrial waste.
