The Facom Magnetic Pick-Up Tool (827B) is an essential retrieval accessory for automotive mechanics, maintenance professionals, and DIY enthusiasts who frequently work with small metallic hardware in confined, hard-to-reach areas. Its primary benefit is the combination of a flexible shaft and strong magnetic pull, allowing users to effortlessly recover dropped screws, nuts, or bolts from tight engine bays or machinery crevices; however, users should note that its reach is limited to 560 mm, which may not suffice for extremely deep industrial access points.

Not all stainless steel is magnetic. It will only pick up stainless steel grades that possess ferromagnetic properties.
The total length of the Facom 827B is 560 mm.
No, 850 grams is the maximum rated lifting capacity. Exceeding this weight may result in the item dropping.
No, it is a purely mechanical, permanent magnet device with no electronic parts.
The head is integrated into the shaft design and is not intended to be replaced individually.
Ensure the object is magnetic and not made of stainless steel, aluminum, or brass. Also, wipe the head clean to ensure direct contact with the target.
The shaft is designed for durability; however, ensure you are bending it gradually rather than forcing sharp angles to maintain its structural integrity.
This tool requires no formal setup or assembly—it is ready for use immediately upon unboxing. Compatibility is universal for any ferrous metal objects that fit the 12 mm diameter constraints. Regarding care, keep the magnetic tip free of metal filings and debris using a dry rag after each use to maintain maximum pull strength. Avoid exposing the magnet to extreme heat, as this can degrade its magnetic properties over time. Store the tool in a clean, dry location, ideally by hanging it to prevent the flexible shaft from developing a permanent kink.
