Add This Tool to Your Truck Today

Valve box covers rarely cooperate. Dirt, debris, corrosion, and years of road wear can turn a simple lift into a frustrating and time-consuming job.

The Magnetic Valve Box Cover Lifting Tool with Pick & Hammer Handle is built to solve that problem.

Designed specifically for waterworks and utility professionals, this rugged multi-purpose tool helps crews locate buried valve boxes, clear debris, and lift metal covers safely and efficiently using a single tool.

At the center of the design is a heavy-duty high-strength magnet that securely grips metal valve box covers, allowing operators to lift them with minimal strain and reduced risk of injury. No prying. No slipping tools. No unnecessary strain on crews.

The integrated tapered pick helps quickly locate buried boxes and clear dirt around the lid, while the reinforced hammer-style handle provides additional leverage for tapping and loosening stubborn covers.

Constructed from heavy-duty steel with a corrosion-resistant finish, the tool is engineered to withstand harsh jobsite environments and the daily demands of municipal water crews, contractors, and public works departments.

Instead of carrying multiple tools and wasting time on every service stop, crews can simply locate it, clear it, lift it, and move on.

If your team services water, sewer, or underground utility valve boxes, this is a tool that should already be on the truck.
