Pow-R-Lite

 

oh_color11_powrlite2.jpg (434964 bytes)The Pow-R-Lite series of lifting magnets are high duty-cycle, mechanically tough pieces of equipment that deliver low initial investment, high productivity and low maintenance costs for years. Ohio completes the system with factory-matched magnet generators and controllers. It's all there, from the diesel or gasoline-driven generator to the magnet controller to the tough Pow-R-Lite Lifting Magnet. Each component is built to go the distance.
