MS2-80 - Strong Hand Adjust-O Dual Switch Magnetic Welding Square 120lb

Heavy-Duty Precision with the Strong Hand MS2-80

For professional fabricators and industrial welders, precision in setup is just as critical as the weld itself. The Strong Hand Tools MS2-80 Adjust-O Dual Switch Magnet is engineered to streamline the fixturing process, offering a robust solution for holding workpieces at a perfect 90-degree angle. Unlike standard magnets that fight you during positioning, this heavy-duty tool features two independent ON/OFF switches. This patented design allows you to turn off the magnetic force completely during setup, ensuring you can align your materials without fighting magnetic attraction. Once positioned, simply flip the switch to engage the powerful 120 lb (55 kg) hold.

The MS2-80 is not limited to flat plate fabrication. Thanks to its precision-machined V-groove surfaces, this magnetic square is exceptionally versatile, capable of securely gripping round and square tubing as well as angle iron and flat stock. This makes it an indispensable tool for pipe welders and frame builders who require stability across various material profiles. The ability to control each axis independently means you can secure one workpiece, fine-tune the alignment of the second, and then lock it in place, effectively acting as a third hand that never tires.

Durability is key in industrial environments, and the MS2-80 is built to last. It features a nickel/chrome plated body that resists corrosion and wear. Furthermore, the ON/OFF functionality serves a dual purpose: maintenance. When the magnet is turned off, metal shavings and debris simply fall away, keeping the tool clean and ensuring maximum contact area for the next job. Whether you are tacking frames or aligning heavy pipes, the MS2-80 provides the hold and control necessary for high-quality fabrication.

Key Applications

• Structural Fabrication: Holding steel beams and plates at 90-degree angles for tack welding.
• Pipe Welding: Utilizing the V-groove to secure round pipes and tubing during fit-up.
• Maintenance & Repair: Quick setup for on-site repairs where clamps are difficult to position.
• General Assembly: Acting as a temporary fixture for layout work before final welding.
