Product Description
Eliminate NPT with the Industry's Most Powerful 24" Ditch Magnet
Protect your mud pumps and drilling equipment from costly damage. The 24" Xtreme Neo Ditch Magnet is engineered for high-volume drilling operations where capturing fine metal debris is critical. Utilizing high-grade N52 Neodymium magnets, this tool is up to 8x more effective than traditional ceramic magnets, ensuring even the smallest ferrous particles are trapped before they reach your shale shaker or pumps.
Maximum Power Meets the Quickest Clean Design
High-volume drilling shouldn't be slowed down by tedious equipment maintenance. Our Quickest Clean Design features a precision-engineered sliding wiper that strips metal debris in a single pass.
-
Flip for Depth: Use the off-center core to toggle between 2" and 5" clearance to match your mud flow.
-
Clean in Seconds: Regardless of which height you use, the integrated non-ferrous wiper ensures your crew spends less time cleaning and more time drilling.
Deep Flow Application: 10-Inch Vertical Coverage
For deep mud returns where a single magnet might allow debris to bypass, the Xtreme Neo offers a modular solution. By utilizing two units in a staggered "low-high" configuration, you can create a comprehensive magnetic curtain:
-
The Setup: Position one unit at the 2" height and the second unit flipped to the 5" height.
-
The Result: This creates a continuous 0" to 10" high magnetic field, effectively covering a 10" to 11" high flow area.
-
The Goal: Eliminate bypass and ensure every gallon of mud is scrubbed of ferrous contaminants before reaching your expensive downstream equipment.
Advanced Engineering: Patent-Pending Maintenance System
The Xtreme Neo Ditch Magnet features a revolutionary, patent-pending design focused on long-term field durability. Unlike traditional magnets that require complete disassembly for maintenance, our heavy-duty open-concept handles and end plates allow captured ferrous metal to pass through freely during the cleaning cycle.
Furthermore, the high-performance wiper is engineered for maximum uptime; it is capable of being installed, removed, and replaced without removing the handles or end plates on either end of the magnetic bar. This ensures your equipment stays in the mud flow longer with zero specialized tools required for wiper maintenance.
Key Benefits for Drilling Operations
-
Maximum Debris Capture: The "Xtreme" magnetic field reaches deep into the mud stream to capture mill cuttings, metal shavings, and fine debris.
-
Reduced Non-Productive Time (NPT): Our proprietary Quick-Clean Wiper design allows your crew to clear the magnet in seconds, keeping operations running without the mess of manual scraping.
-
Rugged Durability: Encased in heavy-duty stainless steel to withstand the corrosive environments of oilfield and industrial milling.
-
Lightweight & Portable: Despite its power, the Neodymium core is lighter than ceramic alternatives, making it easier for one person to install and move.

Who is this for?
Ideal for drilling engineers and mud system operators who need a reliable, high-strength solution to remove metal contaminants during milling operations, wash-overs, or standard drilling cycles.
Q: Does the dual-height feature make the magnet harder to clean?
A: Not at all. Even when flipped to the 5" height setting, the Xtreme Neo maintains its quickest clean design. The internal wiper operates smoothly in both orientations, allowing you to clear the magnetic core of all ferrous debris in seconds without special tools.
