Ullman HT-55FL Extra Long Flexible Magnet Pick-Up Tool

Grabe with magnet

Simply the best one available, Easy to use with a good strong magnet definitely built to last ,arrived quickly too Very pleased.

I am a Locksmith and this tool is a great addition to doing lock outs in vehcles that have the keys setting on the seat or console. The magnet is very strong and I can fish the magnet around to reach lots of places in the car. Excellent buy.

I had dropped a Toyota battery clamp bolt, of length 10", into an engine compartment. I needed to reach 7" past a hole about 9/8" wide to grab the bolt. The bendable shaft was crucial, in that it gave me control over the angle of the head as I drew the head back through the hole. I unsheathed the magnet, because this improved the grip on the bolt. The sheath is a hollow metal cylinder, not shown in product pictures. One can place it over the magnet to avoid magnet sides catching other metal, or one can remove it for maximum grip. While the shaft length was overkill in the end, I was glad to have it. If I had struggled to get the bolt back through the hole, the length gave me the option to instead navigate the bolt to the ground. I did pick up a 5lb weight plate, confirming that much lifting capacity. That experiment required care: gripping the plate anywhere off the center of gravity led to the magnet slipping against the plate. For a working load weighing the full 5lb, I'd want a far-stronger magnet.

Excellent
