Product Information

Full details

The BlueSpot Tools Telescopic Magnetic Pick Up Tool is an essential retrieval instrument for automotive mechanics, DIY enthusiasts, and homeowners who frequently drop small metallic objects in confined spaces. Its primary benefit is its extendable reach and compact profile, which allows for effortless recovery of lost fasteners, washers, or screws. While highly efficient for lightweight components, users should note that it is limited to a maximum lift capacity of 0.9kg (2lb), making it unsuitable for heavier hardware or tools.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this tool pick up stainless steel?

Most grades of stainless steel are non-magnetic and will not be attracted to the magnet.

How far does the tool extend?

The tool extends from a starting length of 125mm up to a maximum length of 635mm.

Is the magnet strong enough to hold a wrench?

Only if the wrench weighs less than 0.9kg; heavier tools will likely exceed the magnet's capacity.

What is the diameter of the magnetic tip?

The magnetic tip measures 6mm (1/4 inch) in diameter.

Can I use this to retrieve items from a drain?

Yes, provided the item is magnetic and the path is clear of obstructions; however, ensure the tool is cleaned thoroughly after use.

Is the finish rust-resistant?

The black chrome finish provides good durability and protection against typical workshop corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Tool shaft does not stay extended

Ensure the friction locks are fully engaged by pulling the segments firmly; if it persists, check the shaft for debris that may prevent proper locking.

Magnet fails to pick up metal objects

Clean the face of the magnet with a dry cloth to remove metal shavings or dust that reduce surface contact.

Pros and Cons

  • Extremely compact and portable design
  • Durable black chrome finish protects against corrosion
  • Wide telescopic range covers most common recovery needs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No assembly is required for the BlueSpot Telescopic Magnetic Pick Up Tool; simply extend the shaft to the desired length to begin use. To maintain the integrity of the tool, wipe the telescopic shaft with a dry, clean cloth after exposure to oils or workshop grime. Avoid submersing the tool in water, as moisture can penetrate the shaft joints. Store in a dry environment to prevent surface oxidation, and ensure the magnet is kept away from credit cards, pacemakers, or sensitive electronic storage devices that may be affected by magnetic fields.
