Can the magnetic pick-up tool really lift 16lb in weight?
No. It's not intended for lifting heavy objects. To clarify, it has a magnetic attractive force of 16lb, meaning it can pull 16lb from side to side, not lift. Its â… inch magnet is designed to retrieve, rather than lift, and has a maximum lifting capacity of 8.2lbs (great for picking up a fallen wrench or hammer). Lifting heavy items when the tool is fully extended might cause it to bend or break.
Which materials will the magnet pick-up tool work best on?
Pick up items made of iron, cobalt, hematite, nickel, and some forms of steel (generally, stainless steel is generally not magnetic, but in some cases it can be - depending on its mixture). However, it will not work on copper, aluminium, silver, gold, brass, chrome, lead, pewter, tin, and zinc.
What sized objects can I pick up using the flex claw grabber tool?
Fully pressing the finger friendly push and release handle will open the claw to its maximum diameter of 1 inch. The tool can then be used to grab onto an object, big or small. To avoid any confusion, the claw is non-magnetic. Its fully flexible arm of only 15/64in diameter from top to tip means it can reach down drains or in vents - great for unclogging drains, vacuum hoses, retrieving lost keys or jewelery.
