Overview - Switchable Magnetic Welding Clamps

Magnetic Switchable Welding Clamps

The Quick Holding Clamp (Switchable) is an innovative magnetic clamp solution designed to provide fast, secure workpiece holding with on-demand magnetic control. Combining a powerful permanent magnet core with a switchable magnetic on/off mechanism, this clamp allows users to engage or disengage magnetic force instantly without electrical power or additional tools. This makes setup, repositioning, and release both efficient and safe in workshop, fabrication, maintenance, and assembly environments.

When switched to the ON position, the magnetic clamp delivers a strong holding force on ferrous surfaces, enabling secure clamping of metal parts, tooling, fixtures, and components. When switched OFF, the magnetic attraction is minimised, allowing effortless repositioning or removal. This switchable capability enhances productivity and reduces downtime by eliminating the need to fight magnetic pull during relocation or adjustment.

Engineered for versatile and repeatable performance, the Quick Holding Clamp is ideal for a wide range of applications where reliable magnetic holding and rapid control are essential.


Typical Applications

The Quick Holding Clamp (Switchable) is commonly used for:

  • Temporary or repeatable workholding during machining, drilling, and grinding

  • Fixturing and positioning of metal components in fabrication and assembly

  • Inspection and measurement support for gauges and instruments

  • Clamping workpieces on machine tables, benches, and fixtures

  • Workshop and production environments where fast setup and release are needed

Its switchable magnetic control and robust holding force make it suitable for both professional technicians and DIY users.


Why Choose a Quick Holding Clamp (Switchable)

The Quick Holding Clamp (Switchable) combines instant magnetic control, strong magnetic holding, and ease of use in one versatile clamping solution. The ability to switch the magnet ON or OFF without tools or power improves workflow efficiency, simplifies repositioning, and enhances safety by reducing accidental drops or slippage. This makes it a valuable tool for operators, engineers, fabricators, and hobbyists needing quick, reliable magnetic clamping.


Key Benefits

  • Switchable magnetic control – engage or disengage magnetic hold instantly

  • Strong permanent magnet force – reliable clamping on ferrous surfaces

  • Easy repositioning – quick and tool-free adjustment

  • Durable design – built for workshop and industrial use

  • Versatile applications – workholding, fixturing, inspection, and assembly tasks
