M062 - Techniweld Medium Welding Magnet 50lb Pull

Your Third Hand in the Welding Shop

Every welder knows the frustration of trying to hold two pieces of steel together with one hand while trying to strike an arc with the other. The Techniweld M062 Medium Magnetic Square is the solution to that daily struggle, effectively acting as a "third hand" that never gets tired and doesn't complain about the heat. With a solid 50lb pull force, this magnet grabs on tight to carbon steel, holding your joints perfectly in place so you can focus entirely on laying down a high-quality tack weld. It is an absolute must-have for anyone doing fabrication, from custom automotive work to farm repairs and structural framing.

The beauty of the M062 lies in its simplicity and effectiveness. The arrow design isn't just for looks; it gives you instant access to the most common angles you need: 90° for square corners, 45° for miter joints, and 135° for open angles. Whether you are building a table frame, welding up a bumper, or running square tubing for a rack, this magnet ensures your angles are true before you commit to the final weld. The medium size is the "Goldilocks" of welding magnets—strong enough to hold heavier stock than the mini magnets, but not so heavy and overpowering that you can't easily pull it off when the job is done.

Durability is key in a welding environment, and Techniweld has built this tool to last. The magnetic core is sandwiched between heavy-gauge steel plates, protecting it from impact if dropped. While you should always try to keep your magnets clean, the smooth surface makes it relatively easy to wipe off metal shavings and grinding dust. Using magnetic squares also improves safety; by stabilizing your workpiece, you reduce the chance of heavy steel slipping and falling, and you keep your gloved hands further away from the arc and the heat zone.

This tool is incredibly versatile. Beyond just holding parts for welding, you can use it to hold steel in place for marking layout lines, support a piece of sheet metal against a vertical surface, or even quickly retrieve dropped bolts from the floor. It is compatible with plate, pipe, and square tubing. Just stick it on, check your square, tack it up, and move on to the next joint. No fumbling with C-clamps or locking pliers where they won't fit.
