A magnetic tool organizer offers a simple storage solution to keep metal tools in a neat, tidy manner. Ideal in a garage or workshop in need of a tidy-up, with its ability to hold tools off the floor, and as a result much easier to find.
A magnetic strip, with heavy-duty magnet, comes designed to hold a vast array of tools, with such common hand-tools as a screwdriver, pliers, drill bits, and hex wrench all held with ease. A high-performance bar offers an ability to secure tools up to 10lbs in weight.
Some of the mounting options include attaching to a shelf, ladder, workbench, or wall space for a flexible and versatile tool storage organizer. A magnetic strip is often finished with a powder coating to prevent scratch marks to tools.
Holders come in multiple sizes, with common size strips ranging in length from 8 to 24-inches, and 1 to 2-inches in width. A total payload can often reach a notable 50 to 240 lbs of various sized tools. As an extra option, hanging loops often feature to assist in holding non-magnetic items.
Other magnetic tool storage options include a circular or square shaped tray for placing loose bolts or screws when working in a busy workshop. A compact-sized bowl offers an effective measure to avoid losing small parts, and comes with a magnetic strip similar to the tool bars.
A wrist or tool mounted strap-on holder offers another variation of the magnetic holder. These come with a large surface area, neodymium magnet, Velcro loop, and comfortable strap for ease in securing drill bits, driver tips, screws, and similar such fasteners close to hand.
All in all, a magnetic tool holder offers a cost-effective piece of kit to store a selection of the most required tools on a hard-wearing rack in a workshop, garage, or even kitchen.
