Full details
The SE Tools Flex Wire Magnet (900WF) is designed for mechanics, DIY enthusiasts, and anyone needing to retrieve small metal objects from tight or inaccessible spaces. Its primary benefit is the 19-inch flexible copper section, allowing it to bend and reach around obstacles to capture dropped items. A potential caveat is its 3 lb. lift capacity, which may be insufficient for heavier objects.

Troubleshooting
Magnet not picking up item
Ensure the item is made of a ferrous metal and is within the magnet's 3 lb. lift capacity. Check that the magnet's surface is clean and free from debris.
Flexible section is stiff or won't hold shape
Gently flex the copper section back and forth to loosen it. If it was bent very sharply, it might need gentle reshaping. Avoid extreme bending.
Magnet appears weak
Clean the magnet surface thoroughly. If the magnet has been exposed to extreme heat or strong opposing magnetic fields, its strength may be permanently reduced. Ensure it's not being held near other large magnetic sources.
