Hull Magnet
Heavy-Duty Magnet for Marine Spill Response
The Canflex Hull Magnet is a powerful heavy-duty magnetic anchor designed for rapid, secure attachment of oil containment boom or sorbent boom directly to the steel hull of a ship. Built for emergency spill response, it provides responders with an instant, stable attachment point anywhere on a vessel’s hull, enabling faster isolation of spill sources and more efficient containment operations.
With its durable Ceramic-8 construction and 1,500-lb holding capacity, the Hull Magnet is a critical tool for marine spill response teams and meets MARPOL and SOPEP readiness requirements.
Designed for Fast, Reliable Boom Attachment
✔ Instant Attachment to Any Steel Hull — Creates a secure anchor point for oil containment boom during bunkering, transfers, or emergency spill events.
✔ Speeds Up Spill Isolation — By anchoring boom directly to the vessel, responders can block, isolate, and control spill pathways quickly and safely.
✔ Versatile Emergency Tool — Ideal for temporarily securing accommodation ladders, gangways, and floating work platforms to a ship’s hull.
✔ MARPOL & SOPEP-Friendly — Designed to assist vessel operators in meeting onboard oil pollution prevention equipment requirements.
✔ Drop-Safe Design — Includes a bright tethered float in case the magnet is accidentally dropped overboard.
