Neodymium Recovery Magnet GEKO 170 kg with 20 m Rope and Protective Gloves (set)

GEKO neodymium recovery magnet with a rated pull force of 170 kg comes as a ready-to-use kit including a 20 m retrieval rope and a pair of protective gloves. The magnet is a rare-earth neodymium type designed for magnetic fishing, metal recovery and salvage work in outdoor environments such as rivers, lakes and shorelines. The set combines a strong single-piece magnet housing, a long rope for reach and a basic set of gloves to allow safe handling of recovered ferrous objects.

Advantages

The GEKO 170 kg neodymium magnet offers a high magnetic attraction relative to its compact size, enabling retrieval of heavy ferrous items from water and difficult-to-access spots. Supplied as a set with a 20 m rope and protective gloves, it reduces the need to source accessories separately and facilitates immediate use. The included rope provides extended reach for deeper or wider retrievals, while the gloves protect hands from sharp or rusted metal.

Suitable for

• Magnetic fishing and hobbyist recovery of nails, bolts, tools, and metal debris from rivers and lakes
• Search and salvage tasks on shorelines, docks and small piers
• Site clearing of ferrous scrap and accidental metal contamination in outdoor areas
• Light salvage work where a single strong magnet and manual retrieval is sufficient

When it may not be suitable

This magnet set is not intended for lifting people or for certified industrial lifting operations that require safety-rated lifting gear and formal inspection. It may be less effective on non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, brass or stainless steel with low magnetic permeability. Performance can be reduced when debris, mud or scale prevents direct contact between the magnet and target metal.

Key specifications

• Magnet type: neodymium (rare-earth)
• Rated pull force: 170 kg (approximate, under ideal conditions)
• Rope length: 20 m
• Accessories: one pair of protective gloves included
• Intended environment: outdoor use — freshwater, shorelines, docks

How to use

Attach the 20 m rope securely to the magnet’s eyelet following the manufacturer’s guidance, put on the protective gloves and lower the magnet into the water or target area. Move the magnet slowly along the bottom or sweep across likely locations, allowing it to make contact with ferrous objects. Retrieve the magnet by hand using the rope, keeping fingers clear of recovered items and using the gloves to handle sharp or rusty metal. After use, rinse the magnet and rope with fresh water, dry and store in a dry place to reduce corrosion risk.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that a 170 kg pull force matches the expected size and weight of items you plan to recover
• Consider whether a longer or shorter rope or additional lifting equipment is required for your sites
• Be aware that effectiveness depends on direct contact with ferrous metal and may be reduced by mud, scale or coatings
• Check local rules and permissions for magnetic fishing or salvage in waterways and shorelines

Usage recommendations

For safer recovery operations, always wear the supplied protective gloves, inspect the rope attachment before each use, and avoid sudden jerks when lifting heavy items. Rinse and dry the magnet after exposure to water and store away from sensitive electronic devices and magnetic media.
