OVERVIEW

Precise Angular Holding for Professional Fabrication

The Strong Hand Tools MS45 Standard Magnet Square is a fundamental tool for welders and fabricators requiring quick, accurate setup for 45-degree and 90-degree joints. Designed to hold ferrous metals securely in place, this magnetic square acts as a third hand, allowing operators to focus on tacking and welding without the need for manual holding or cumbersome mechanical clamps. With a maximum pull force of approximately 65 lbs, it provides sufficient grip for a wide range of light-to-medium duty applications in soldering, brazing, and welding.

Durable and User-Friendly Design

Durability is key in industrial environments, and the MS45 addresses this with a fully enclosed construction. Unlike open-magnet designs that trap metal shavings and grinding dust, the enclosed housing of the MS45 makes it incredibly easy to wipe clean, preventing debris buildup that can interfere with work surfaces. The unit also features a large center hole, specifically engineered to make the magnet easy to grab, reposition, and remove, even when the user is wearing thick welding gloves.

Versatility in Application

Beyond simple corner holding, the MS45 is designed for versatility. It includes two riveted holes that allow users to link multiple magnets together using bolts or rods, creating custom fixtures or increasing the total holding power for larger workpieces. Its compact dimensions (4-3/8" x 3-3/4" x 3/4") ensure it can fit into confined spaces where larger clamps would be impractical. Whether used for tube framing, sheet metal work, or general assembly, the Strong Hand MS45 delivers reliable performance and improved workflow efficiency.

FAQ

The MS45 is designed to hold ferrous metals at standard 45-degree and 90-degree angles.

No, the MS45 is a standard magnetic square and does not feature an on/off switch. For switchable magnets, look for Strong Hand's Adjust-O series.

The Strong Hand MS45 provides a maximum pull force of approximately 65 lbs (approx. 30 kg).

Yes, the MS45 features a fully enclosed design which prevents metal filings and fuzz from getting inside, making the exterior easy to wipe clean.

No, this is a magnetic tool and will only hold ferrous metals like steel and iron. It will not work on aluminum or stainless steel.

The magnet measures approximately 4-3/8 inches x 3-3/4 inches x 3/4 inches.

Yes, the unit has two riveted holes that allow you to link magnets together to create a stronger hold or a custom fixture.

The center hole is designed to provide a grip point, making it easier to position and remove the magnet while wearing welding gloves.
