Magswitch MagSquare 165
P/N: 8100494
Welders and fabricators are raving about all the uses, convenience and time savings with
Magswitch MagSquares. MagSquares are extremely powerful magnetic blocks with strong
holding force available on all sides. Welders have never enjoyed this complete control over
incredibly strong magnets. You can precisely position the MagSquare and material, and then turn
the magnet on. MagSquares feature multi-plane workholding capability. It takes away the need
for time consuming manual clamping on so many jobs, and works anywhere there is steel; you
don’t need and edge like you do with C-Clamps. All MagSquares are machined at 90 degrees,
have pre tapped holes on all sides for mounting tools, jigs and fixtures. Fast 180 degree turn of
the knob turns the MagSquare on and off. When off, nothing sticks to them. Once you
understand all the uses, the time savings in set ups, and the ability to control these powerful
magnetic blocks – you will want the entire range.
