Six magnets for €20: they hold a corner square while you tack, and they are not clamps.
Six magnets for €20: they hold a corner square while you tack, and they are not clamps.
Best for: Holding a frame square long enough to tack it
The sequence that works: magnet to set the angle, tack both ends, remove the magnet, clamp mechanically, weld. Skipping the middle steps is the commonest reason a « square » frame is not.
It is enough for light section and nothing more. On heavy steel, magnets of this size position the work and rely on you to hold it.
Every figure above comes from the manufacturer’s published specification for this reference. Fields the listing does not publish are left out rather than estimated. Market availability was verified per market on the EAN.
Because a cooling weld shrinks with far more force than 13 kg (28.7 lb), and because heat weakens the magnet itself. What magnets do is hold parts in position while you place tacks. Once tacked, mechanical clamps take over. Trusting a magnet through a full bead is how a frame comes out of square.
Wrap them or keep them away from the grinding area, and wipe them before use. A magnet coated in grinding dust holds badly and marks the work, and the dust is very hard to remove once it has migrated into the seams of the casing.
Nearly double the hold of the cheap sets — which changes what section they can position.
Best for: Positioning heavier box section and plate before tacking
A vice that drops into a 16 mm (0.63 in) fixture-table hole — clamping where the work is, not at the bench edge.
Best for: Owners of a fixture table who need to grip rather than just clamp down
Three big locking clamps that publish both the figures that matter — a 7.8 in throat and a 6.3 in opening, the deepest and widest in this hub.
Best for: Clamping a plate or a frame well in from the edge, where a short-throat clamp cannot reach the seam
A True Color lens: the green cast disappears and you can see what the weld pool is actually doing.
Best for: Anyone welding TIG or stainless, where seeing the pool clearly is the whole job
The parts that wear out on a TIG torch, in every size, in one box.
Best for: A new TIG owner who does not yet know which sizes they need
A hundred and eighty-five rods in a box — the format for a project rather than a repair.
Best for: A project with a lot of welding in it, at 5 mm (0.20 in) and above
