Forklift magnetic sweepers MZ-VZV
The magnetic broom for forklifts is designed to remove any unwanted, hazardous ferrous debris (such as swarf, nails, tacks, nuts, bolts, screws, paperclips, metal shavings, wires, scrap metal etc.) from large areas. It is ideal for clearing car parks, large industrial areas, factory floors, warehouses, scrap yards (where metals are bought and recycled) and in general it is used at all places where nails and other ferrous particles can occur and cause flat tires. There is a simple rule - collect the nails before they cause you a puncture!
These hanging magnetic sweepers are distinguished by an extremely large working area of 1400 x 200 mm! That is why they can capture a really big amount of metal particles and the interval needed for broom cleaning is prolonged = speeding up work and reducing costs.

We produce two types of forklift mounted magnetic sweepers, as we fit them either with ferrite or very strong neodymium magnets. The magnetic broom sweeper with neodymium magnets allows you to attract ferrous particles from a larger distance (it has a deeper magnetic field). The main advantage: these strong front mount magnetic sweepers make the collection of ferrous particles even at higher forklift speed possible, what has a beneficial effect on the speed and efficiency of the work.
Installation of the magnetic broom on a forklift
The forklift magnetic sweeper can be easily attached to the standard forks using two pockets. Once mounted onto forks, the sweeper is fixed into position with two safety brackets. Installing a broom on a forklift is very quick and comfortable - it couldn't be simpler!
Cleaning a forklift magnetic sweeper
It is quick and easy - release the safety brackets, lift up the cover and the trapped ferrous debris will fall off.

The forklift magnetic sweeper MZ-VZV is designed to collect metal debris — nails, wires, swarf and similar objects — from large surface areas using a forklift truck. Typical applications include car parks, industrial premises, scrap metal dealers and recycling facilities, and logistics centres — anywhere where loose metal debris poses a risk of tyre punctures on forklift trucks.
The sweeper is equipped with a clamping mechanism dimensionally compatible with standard forklift forks. Slide it onto the forks and secure it with two bolts — no tools or modifications to the forklift are required.
The ferrite magnet version (magnetic induction 1,300 G) is sufficient for standard collection of nails, screws and wire. The neodymium magnet version (up to 3,000 G) has a deeper magnetic field — it picks up debris from a greater height and allows operation at higher forklift speeds, directly improving the efficiency and speed of cleaning large areas.
The working width of the MZ-VZV sweeper is 1,400 mm and the effective area reaches 1,400 × 200 mm. This large surface area allows the sweeper to capture a significant amount of debris in a single pass, extending the cleaning interval and reducing overall maintenance costs.
Cleaning is quick and straightforward — release the locking pins, flip open the cover plate and the collected metal debris falls away on its own. The sweeper body is made of EN AW 6060 aluminium, the cover plate from AISI 304 stainless steel, and the brackets from painted steel (RAL 3000) — ensuring durability even in demanding operating conditions.
Selected models are available for immediate collection. Please contact our sales representative for current stock availability of a specific version.
