Magnetic Hook

Magnetic Hooks · 12–55 kg

Grip steel by hand, leave no hole, and move the hook when the layout changes.

These are magnetic hooks: a neodymium pot magnet with a steel hook screwed into the cup.

Three body styles cover most orders, from a cruise cabin wall to a 55 kg workshop pull.

What a Magnetic Hook Actually Holds

A magnetic hook holds by contact, so the surface decides the result as much as the magnet does.

On a clean 5 mm steel plate the hook reaches its rated vertical pull. The moment the load is hung sideways, that figure drops to about a third, because the magnet resists sliding far less than it resists lifting.

On a painted ship bulkhead, a fridge door or a powder-coated rack, expect 50–70 % of the bare steel figure. The coating is an air gap, and an air gap is the enemy.

Three Magnetic Hook Styles Compared

Same magnet cup, different hook and body. Pick by load direction and by how often it moves.

E type pot magnet hook with fixed steel hook

E-Type Pot Magnet Hook

A fixed hook sits on top of the cup. The simplest body, with nothing to rotate or wear.

Pull12 – 40 kg

Best forStatic hanging
Magnetic hook body with through hole for a swivel hook

Swivel Magnetic Hook

The hook turns in the cup, so a hanging load always settles vertical. Suits cables and lanyards that swing.

Pull12 – 34 kg
Hook360° swivel
Best forCables, lanyards
Heavy duty magnetic hook with external threaded stud and large cup

Heavy Duty Magnetic Hook

A larger D48 cup with a thicker hook shank, built for workshop loads rather than cabin walls.

Pullup to 55 kg
HookFixed, 8 mm
Best forTools, tarps

Not sure which body fits? The pot magnet range lists the same cups without a hook, which is often the cheaper route if you already have a hook.

Magnetic Hook Pull Force by Cup Size

Vertical pull on 5 mm ground steel. Side slide is roughly one third of these figures.

Cup diameter Vertical pull Side slide Hook opening Typical load
D25 12 kg 4 kg 10 mm Keys, small bags, cables
D32 22 kg 7 kg 12 mm Towels, jackets, tools
D36 29 kg 10 kg 14 mm Most cruise and home use
D42 40 kg 13 kg 16 mm Heavy bags, hoses
D48 55 kg 18 kg 20 mm Workshop tools, tarps

These are holding figures, not lifting ratings. Never use a magnetic hook above a person or as a fall-arrest point.

Where Heavy Duty Magnetic Hooks Are Used

Four settings account for most of the volume we ship.

Cabin icon for magnetic hooks on cruise ship steel walls

Cruise Cabins

Cabin walls are steel and drilling is forbidden, which is why magnetic hooks for cruise cabins outsell every other fixing. A D36 hook carries a wet jacket without a mark.

Gear icon for magnetic hooks in workshops and tool racks

Workshops

Industrial magnetic hooks hang spanners, hoses and jigs on a steel rack and move when the bay is reorganized.

Painted Vehicles

Swap the bare cup for a rubber coated magnet body so the paint stays intact.

Warehouse Racks

Mark bays and hang signage on steel shelving without adhesive that fails in the cold.

Mounting Tips That Keep the Rating

Three things that quietly halve the load

  • Thin sheet. Below about 1.5 mm the steel saturates and the magnet cannot develop full flux. Add a backing plate or step up a size.
  • Side load. Hanging on a wall turns a vertical pull into a shear load. Derate to one third and add a lip if the hook must stay put.
  • Heat. A standard N grade loses holding force above 80 °C. Near ovens or engines, switch to an H or SH class cup.

Check the actual figure before you specify: the magnetic pull force calculator accounts for plate thickness and gap.

Magnetic Hook FAQ

Will a magnetic hook hold on a stainless steel fridge?
Usually yes, because appliance panels are ferritic. Test with a kitchen magnet first: if a small magnet sticks hard, a hook will hold.
How much can a magnetic hook hold on a cruise cabin wall?
Treat a D36 hook as good for 8–12 kg there. The wall is thin painted steel, so the bare-steel rating does not apply.
Can the hook be removed and reused?
Yes. Slide it sideways rather than pulling straight off, which is easier on the coating and on your fingers.
Do you make hooks with a custom thread?
We do. Send the thread callout and we match it to a standard cup where one exists, or machine a stud to suit.
