Overview - Magnetic Base with Toggle Switch

Versatile and Secure Magnetic Base

The Magnetic Base with Toggle Switch is a controlled magnetic holding solution designed for precision fixturing, tool mounting, and secure attachment on ferrous surfaces in workshop, industrial, fabrication, inspection, and assembly environments. This magnetic base features a powerful permanent magnet core combined with an integrated toggle switch mechanism, enabling users to engage or disengage the magnetic field easily without the need for electrical power or tools.

When the toggle switch is set to the ON position, the magnetic base delivers a strong, dependable hold on steel and other ferrous materials, providing stability for mounted tools, gauges, lights, fixtures, or accessories. Flipping the switch to the OFF position significantly reduces the magnetic attraction, allowing quick repositioning, removal, or adjustment of the base without lifting against full magnetic force.

Built with durable materials and precision engineering, this magnetic base is suitable for a wide range of applications where controlled magnetic engagement and reliable holding force are essential.


Typical Applications

The Magnetic Base with Toggle Switch is commonly used for:

  • Mounting dial indicators, test equipment, and gauges during inspection and measurement

  • Supporting lights, cameras, and accessories on steel machinery and frames

  • Positioning jigs, fixtures, and assembly aids

  • Temporary fixturing in machining, welding, and fabrication tasks

  • Organising magnetic tools and components on workshop surfaces

Its switchable magnetic control and sturdy design make it ideal for environments that require frequent adjustment or repositioning of magnetic attachments.


Why Choose a Magnetic Base with Toggle Switch

A Magnetic Base with Toggle Switch offers precise magnetic control, strong permanent magnet hold, and ease of use in a single versatile solution. The toggle switch allows users to turn magnetic attraction ON or OFF instantly, eliminating the need to fight against strong magnetism when relocating the base. This makes it an excellent choice for machinists, technicians, engineers, and hobbyists who need fast, flexible, and secure magnetic mounting during setup, inspection, and assembly.


Key Benefits

  • Toggle switch control – engage or disengage magnetic hold without tools or power

  • Strong permanent magnet – dependable holding force on ferrous surfaces
