Hanging a tool bag with magnets

Our magnets are perfect solutions for our customers problems, and we love nothing more than seeing the clever ways in which are magnets can be used to make day to day life easier.

One of our customers recently got in touch to show us how our magnets have made their working life easier. Duncan, an electrician from Scotland, has been able to modify his tool pouches with magnets so they can be hung at a more suitable height for working.

Having first seen the idea on an Instagram post one day Duncan purchased two different strength magnets, one 25mm and one 32mm Neodymium Pot Magnet with Carabiner.

These strong Neodymium pot magnets with easy clip carabiner  are ideal for holding signage, tools, ropes and more. The carabiner is spring loaded, providing easy on-off holding.

He attached them to his tool pouches and was able to hang his pouch, until a few months ago when the handle on his tool pouch broke.

Duncan decided that creating a new braided handle out of paracord would be a fun project.

Once he had the handle, Duncan made extensions for the magnets to allow them to reach more awkward areas when he is working and still months later Duncan is still using our magnets daily to help make his working life easier.

“FIRST4MAGNETS have been the best for the job, I have tried another brand, but they ended up cracking.”

“This proved to me that F4M were the best purchase as they are much more durable and reliable. I recommend these magnets to anyone, especially those who work in industrial environments.” Duncan said in his message.

We would like to thank Duncan for getting in touch and sharing his story with us. If you are currently working on a project or could use some advice, our team would love to hear from you! Contact our experts on 0845 519 4701 or email sales@magnetexpert.com
