This magnet is cool, and fun, but I do not know how much it can lift.

It weighs about 130 lbs, so I figure, it would be rated at 2,500 lbs,
but that's only a guess and knowing who made it would make a
difference.

The lifting eye on it is Crosby-Laughlin.

That is an ACME Liftall 9000 magnet. I saw it featured in episode 9 of the
Roadrunner / Wile E. Coyote show.

I've been all through "The ORIGINAL Illustrated Catalog Of ACME
Products", http://home.nc.rr.com/tuco/looney/acme/acme.html ,
and didn't see such a magnet anywhere in it. Must have been
episode 9 of some other series, maybe Superman, and not an ACME
product at all.

Hmmmmmmm, Well if it wasn't it should have been!

I don't think so, but perhaps mechanical sizes might give a rating.

There is a label on the side of yours - what is it ? a bar code ??

Yes, I think that mine matches their 10" version. Both by size and
weight.
