MAG 2000

MAG 2000

The MAG 2000 is a robust, reusable impact indicator designed to detect and visually display mishandling events during shipping, storage, or transit. Built for freight over 500 lbs (226 kg), this heavy-duty ShockWatch solution is widely used for monitoring railcars, trucks, heavy equipment, and returnable containers.

Unlike disposable impact indicators, the MAG 2000 is fully resettable using a magnetic key and offers multiple sensitivity levels (0.5G to 20G). This flexibility allows manufacturers and shippers to calibrate monitoring for different cargo fragility levels, providing greater accuracy and control across the supply chain.

By delivering clear, tamperproof evidence of impact, the MAG 2000 helps reduce concealed damage, validate insurance claims, and hold carriers accountable. For companies in South Africa transporting high-value or heavy industrial goods, the MAG 2000 provides a cost-effective, reliable way to ensure accountability, reduce loss, and protect cargo integrity.

  • Returnable shipping containers

  • Heavy industrial or military equipment

  • Railcars and truck fleets

  • Machinery and tools in transit

  • Warehousing and long-term storage

  • Server racks, electronics enclosures

  • Mount the MAG 2000 onto your package or directly onto equipment using screws or included adhesive.

  • Unlock the device using the included magnetic reset key.

  • Rotate the internal cover and reposition the red magnet to the center.

  • Re-secure the cover and it’s ready for monitoring.

  • Upon delivery, inspect the red indicator pegs — if displaced, an impact has occurred.

  • Reset and reuse after inspection if needed.

Orientation Types:

  • HH: Horizontal mount for horizontal impact

  • VV: Vertical mount for vertical impact

  • VH: Vertical mount for horizontal impact
