Product Information

Full details

The Sealey Magnetic Collector (AK2314) is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who need to keep small metal parts organized during disassembly and assembly. Its key benefit is the strong magnetic hold, allowing it to attach securely to any ferrous surface, even upside down, preventing lost bolts and nuts. A potential caveat is its reliance on magnetic surfaces for attachment, limiting its use on non-metallic materials.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What size are the magnets?

The collector features four Ø80mm magnets.

What is the size of the tray?

The tray measures 290 x 275mm.

Can this collector hold non-magnetic items?

No, the collector relies on magnetism to hold items, so it can only hold ferrous (magnetic) metal parts.

What is the weight of the collector?

The nett weight of the collector is approximately 1.40kg.

Will the magnets damage painted surfaces?

No, the magnets are equipped with non-marking covers designed to protect painted surfaces from scratches.

Can I use this collector on a vertical surface?

Yes, the collector is designed to function effectively at any angle, including vertically.

Is the tray made of plastic or metal?

The tray is made of durable stainless steel.

Troubleshooting

Collector not sticking firmly

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and made of a ferrous metal. Remove any dirt, oil, or debris from both the surface and the collector's magnets.

Magnets lose their strength over time

While rare with quality magnets, ensure the collector has not been exposed to strong opposing magnetic fields or excessive heat, which can demagnetize them. Clean the magnet covers regularly.

Tray is scratched

The stainless steel is durable but can be scratched by abrasive materials. Use caution when placing sharp objects in the tray and clean with non-abrasive cloths.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Securely holds small metal parts, reducing the risk of loss.
  • Attaches to a variety of ferrous surfaces, including toolboxes, car bodies, and workbenches.
  • Functional in various orientations, including upside down.
  • Durable stainless steel construction.
  • Non-marking magnet covers protect surfaces.

Cons

  • Limited to use on ferrous (magnetic) surfaces.
  • May not hold extremely heavy tools securely.
  • Requires a clean surface for optimal magnetic adhesion.
  • The size might be too large for very confined spaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No setup is required. Simply place the magnetic collector on a clean, dry ferrous surface. Ensure the surface is free from grease, dirt, or debris to maximize magnetic strength.

Compatibility: The collector is compatible with all ferrous (magnetic) metal surfaces. It is ideal for use with steel toolboxes, car panels, engine bays, workbenches, and machinery.

Care: Clean the stainless steel tray with a damp cloth. Ensure the magnetic covers remain free of metal filings or debris. Periodically check the magnets for any damage. Avoid exposing the collector to extreme heat or corrosive chemicals.
