FAQ
FAQ
What is this ceiling magnet typically used for?
It’s ideal for quick, removable mounting of hooks, cables, signs, or small fixtures on ferromagnetic steel surfaces. It’s commonly used in workshops, retail displays, and light-duty installations.
How do I install the magnet?
Place the magnet on a clean steel surface and screw your accessory onto the threaded end. Hand-tighten for a secure fit and check that the magnet sits flat.
Which thread sizes are compatible with this magnet?
The threaded end uses a metric thread in either M4 or M6. Match your accessory to the thread size used on your specific version.
Can I use it on stainless steel, aluminum, or wood?
It works best on ferromagnetic steel surfaces. Performance depends heavily on the base material and whether it attracts a magnet.
Does surface thickness or paint affect holding strength?
Yes-thin steel, coatings, paint layers, and uneven surfaces can reduce magnetic grip. For best results, use a flat, clean steel surface.
What’s the advantage of a pot magnet design?
The steel pot focuses the magnetic field toward the contact surface, which helps deliver stronger holding power for its size. It also offers added protection around the magnet.
Can I rotate or reposition it after mounting?
Yes, you can reposition it by sliding or lifting it off and placing it again. If you need to rotate an attached part, loosen it slightly first to avoid twisting the magnet on the surface.
How do I remove the magnet safely?
Avoid pulling straight up if it’s strongly attached; instead, slide it to an edge or tilt it to break contact gradually. This helps protect both the surface and your fingers.
How should I clean and maintain it?
Wipe the contact surface with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and metal particles. Keeping the surface clean helps maintain a consistent grip.
Is this suitable for hanging items from a ceiling?
It can be used for overhead applications when mounted to a suitable steel surface and used within a safe working load. Always test the setup and include an extra safety margin for dynamic loads.
