Magnetic Tools

Magnetic tools are practical measuring and holding accessories that use permanent magnets to secure instruments and workpieces on ferrous surfaces. They are widely used for fast indicator setup, alignment, runout checks, and repeatable positioning during inspection and machine setup, helping reduce vibration-related errors and speeding up changeovers.

This collection includes magnetic bases for dial indicators and digital comparators, magnetic V-blocks, magnetic plates/clamps, and articulated arms for precise positioning. Key specifications to consider are holding force, on/off switching, arm rigidity, contact surface quality, and compatibility with common indicator stems, threads, and mounting interfaces. Options from Insize and Ece support everything from general workshop use to demanding metrology tasks.

These tools are used by machinists, maintenance teams, and QC specialists in machining, metal fabrication, mold making, and production environments, where reliable fixture-free mounting is needed on lathes, mills, inspection benches, and assembly lines.
