Mag-Shield® Magnetic Filtration
Mag-Shield® protects your hydraulic system from the impact of ferrous contamination to improve the reliability and lower operating costs of your equipment.
Mag-Shield® uses the most advanced magnetic technology and is placed in the hydraulic reservoir. The design and location direct all the returning fluid flow through an inescapable magnetic field without restricting or altering flow to the suction side.

At installation, a new Mag-Shield® looks like this.
Mag-Shield® During Operation
Particles missed by OEM filters are picked up by Mag-Shield®, prolonging component life.
Mag-Shield® Following a Failure
Without Mag-Shield®, this thick layer of iron debris would end up in the hydraulic system.
Designated an official reliability strategy by our customers.
Mag-Shield®’s inescapable capture path
Mag-Shield® can be used in most oil-based fluids such as hydraulic fluids, lubricating oils and fuels. Mag-Shield® kits are installed simply and safely inside the reservoir with no modification or fabrication required.
Why choose Mag-Shield® magnetic filters?
Extend component life
Mag-Shield® filters capture ferrous particles that are too small for OEM filters to catch. Components last longer in machines with Mag-Shield®.
Reduce your repair bill
Not all failures are preventable. Mag-Shield® reduces the costly impact of failures by capturing a significantly higher quantity of ferrous contamination than OEM filters alone.
Get back to work faster
The use of the Mag-Shield® helps reduce system clean up time after a failure and allows your machine to get back into service sooner.
Reduce follow-on failures
By capturing the contamination when a failure occurs and by filtering 100% of the fluid when a machine is restarted following repairs, Mag-Shield® dramatically reduces follow-on failures.
Low maintenance
Mag-Shield® patented filter technology does not require maintenance outside of existing preventative and reactive maintenance programs.
One-time investment
Mag-Shield® is designed to protect your machine for its full life cycle.
More than 50 applications are available for excavators, shovels, trucks, loaders, dozers and drills across most major brands. New kits are continually being developed.
