OVERVIEW

Precision Layout Tool for Industrial Fabrication

The Techniweld M062 Magnetic Square is a fundamental tool for any industrial supply inventory, catering to professional fabricators, pipefitters, and metalworkers who require reliable work-holding solutions. In the realm of welding and assembly, precision is paramount, and the ability to quickly secure ferrous metals at standard angles significantly reduces setup time and labor costs. This medium-sized magnetic square is engineered to provide a robust 50lb holding capacity, making it sufficiently powerful to stabilize steel plates, tubes, and profiles during the critical tack-welding phase.

Designed with versatility in mind, the M062 features a classic arrow shape that allows for three distinct angle configurations: 45 degrees, 90 degrees, and 135 degrees. This multi-angle capability ensures that a single tool can handle the majority of framing and layout requirements found in structural steel and general repair shops. The unit is constructed with heavy-duty steel plates riveted securely to encase the magnetic core, providing durability against the rough handling typical of industrial environments. Unlike mechanical clamps that require threading and specific anchor points, this magnetic square adheres instantly to any flat ferrous surface, streamlining the workflow.

For supply chain managers and procurement specialists, the Techniweld M062 represents a high-turnover consumable accessory that complements welding machine and filler metal sales. It is an essential safety and efficiency aid; by holding the workpiece autonomously, it allows the welder to keep their hands free to operate the torch and filler rod, thereby improving weld quality and reducing the risk of injury. Its medium form factor ensures it is large enough to be effective on structural components but compact enough to fit into a standard toolbox or work on smaller benchtop assemblies.

The magnet's construction is designed to resist the heat generated during tacking, though direct contact with the weld pool should be avoided to maintain magnetic integrity over the long term. As a static fixture, it requires no power source or maintenance, offering a long service life with a high return on investment for the end-user. Whether used for aligning corners for frames, setting up pipe flanges, or simply holding a piece of scrap steel for a quick repair, the M062 delivers consistent performance synonymous with the Techniweld brand.

FAQ

The Techniweld M062 has a maximum pull force of approximately 50 lbs (22.6 kg) on flat, clean, thick ferrous steel.

The arrow-shaped design allows for accurate positioning at 45°, 90°, and 135° angles.

No, the M062 is a standard fixed magnet. It is always 'on'. For switchable magnets, you would need to look at different specialized models.

No, magnetic squares only work on ferrous metals like carbon steel. They will not adhere to aluminum or stainless steel (unless the stainless is ferritic).

Prolonged exposure to extreme heat can demagnetize the tool. It is designed for tack welding; once the tack is made, the magnet should be removed before completing the full weld.

Since it is a fixed magnet, shavings will stick. The best method is to wipe them off with a heavy rag or use compressed air, though some fabricators wrap the magnet in paper or tape for easier cleaning.

While exact dimensions vary slightly by batch, medium welding magnets are typically around 3.5 to 4 inches in height and width.
