FAQs

What types of items can this bowl hold?

It is best suited for small metal parts such as nuts, bolts, screws, washers, and screwdriver bits.

How strong is the magnetic hold?

The magnetic hold is designed to keep small parts in place on a suitable metal surface. Its effectiveness depends on the cleanliness and flatness of the surface and the size/weight of the parts.

Can I use this bowl with solvents?

The bowl is constructed from stainless steel mesh and is suitable for water-based cleaning solutions. For solvents, check their compatibility with stainless steel and ensure adequate ventilation and safety precautions are followed.

What are the dimensions of the bowl?

The dimensions are approximately 28.60cm x 28.60cm x 13.10cm (Length x Width x Height).

Is this product electric?

No, this is a non-electric, magnetic parts washer bowl.

How do I clean the bowl?

Rinse with water and dry thoroughly. For stubborn dirt or grease, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What is the weight of the bowl?

The bowl weighs approximately 0.69kg.

Troubleshooting

Bowl not sticking to surface

Ensure the magnetic base and the surface it's applied to are clean and free from grease, dirt, or metal shavings. The surface must be ferrous metal.

Small parts falling out

Ensure the bowl is on a level surface and not being jostled. For very fine parts, consider placing a liner inside the mesh bowl if the magnetism alone is insufficient.

Rust appearing on the bowl

The stainless steel mesh is durable, but prolonged exposure to moisture without drying can cause surface rust. Ensure the bowl is dried thoroughly after each use, especially if used with water-based cleaners.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Securely holds small metal parts with magnetism.
  • Magnetic base adheres to various metal surfaces for convenient placement.
  • Durable stainless steel mesh construction is suitable for cleaning solutions.
  • Prevents loss of small components during cleaning and repair.
  • Non-electric and easy to use.

Cons

  • Magnetic strength may vary on uneven or painted surfaces.
  • Primarily designed for small metal parts; larger items may not be held effectively.
  • Requires a ferrous metal surface for optimal magnetic adhesion.
  • Mesh design might not be suitable for very fine dust or debris without a liner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No setup is required. Simply place the bowl on a clean, flat ferrous metal surface. Ensure the magnetic base is free of debris for maximum adhesion.

Compatibility: The magnetic base adheres best to clean steel surfaces. It is compatible with water-based cleaning solutions. It is not designed for use with highly corrosive chemicals that could damage the stainless steel or the rubber base.

Care: After use, rinse the bowl thoroughly with water and dry it completely to prevent rust. Clean the magnetic base regularly to maintain its adhesion. Wipe with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
