Product Information

Full details

This guide is for DIY enthusiasts, retail display installers, and anyone needing a strong, reliable holding solution. The B&Q Hook Magnet offers an impressive 20kg vertical pull force, making it ideal for hanging displays or securing items. A potential limitation to consider is that the stated weight capacity is for flush contact with a sufficiently thick steel surface.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight this magnet can hold?

The magnet can support up to 20kg vertically when in direct, flush contact with a sufficiently thick mild steel surface. The actual holding power may vary based on surface conditions.

What material is the magnet made of?

It uses Neodymium rare earth magnets embedded within a steel pot.

Is the hook permanently attached?

No, the hook is removable and attached via an M4 thread.

Can this magnet be used outdoors?

While durable, it is best used in dry conditions. Prolonged exposure to moisture may affect performance and appearance over time.

Will this magnet damage painted surfaces?

When applied and removed carefully, it is unlikely to cause significant damage to intact paint. However, repeated strong applications or forceful removals on weak paint could potentially cause marks or chips.

What are the dimensions of the magnet?

The magnet has a diameter of 25mm and a height of 36.5mm including the hook, or 17mm excluding the hook.

What is the internal diameter of the hook?

The internal diameter of the hook is 7mm.

Troubleshooting

Magnet not holding items securely.

Ensure the surface is clean, flat, and made of mild steel. Verify the surface thickness is sufficient. Check that the magnet face is free of debris and making full, flush contact.

Hook feels loose.

Gently tighten the M4 screw connecting the hook to the magnet base. Ensure it is properly seated.

Magnet is difficult to remove.

Slide the magnet sideways to break the magnetic seal rather than pulling directly away, especially after significant load.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional holding power for its size (20kg vertical pull).
  • Durable construction resistant to chipping and cracking.
  • Versatile for hanging and holding applications, especially in retail.
  • Neodymium magnets ensure a strong and consistent magnetic field.
  • Professional and unobtrusive white finish.

Cons

  • Maximum weight capacity is dependent on surface material and thickness.
  • The hook may not be suitable for all hanging requirements.
  • Primarily designed for use on ferrous metal surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the target surface is clean, dry, and free from grease or debris.
  2. The surface must be made of a ferrous metal (like steel) for the magnet to adhere.
  3. Align the magnet with the desired location and press firmly to ensure full contact.
  4. If using the hook, ensure it is securely attached to the magnet base via the M4 thread.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with all clean, flat, ferrous metal surfaces.
  • The effectiveness will be reduced on painted, coated, or significantly thin metal surfaces.
  • The hook's internal diameter is 7mm, suitable for hanging items with a corresponding loop or hole.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • While resistant to chipping, prolonged or forceful impacts should still be avoided.
  • Store in a dry environment. Keep away from sensitive electronic devices.
