Bunting® Overband Magnets, also known as Crossbelt Magnets, are powerful, self-cleaning magnetic separators built to remove tramp ferrous metal from conveyed material. Installed inline or across the belt, they protect crushers, shredders, and other downstream equipment from costly metal damage and keep operations running without unplanned stops. Offered in permanent or electromagnetic models, Bunting Overband Magnets are widely used in mining, aggregates, recycling, and other heavy industrial applications around the world.

The most economical and low-maintenance option for continuous tramp metal separation. These self-cleaning magnets use high-strength permanent magnet blocks to extract ferrous metal from conveyed materials.

This high-intensity electromagnetic separator is 185% stronger and 25% lighter than conventional permanent overband (crossbelt) magnets . Ideal where weight, space, and enhanced metal separation are critical.

Engineered for heavy-duty applications where maximum separation strength is essential. Oil-cooled electromagnets achieve deep field penetration for removal of large tramp metal pieces from deep burden depths.

Engineered for demanding environments where reliability and low maintenance are critical. The heavy-duty air-cooled electromagnetic overband range is available in over 300 sizes, providing powerful tramp metal separation without the need for oil circulation systems.
