Magnetic V Block by Taytools 2.875″ x 2.25″ x 3.5″ Triple-Side Magnet

Description

Product Overview

The Taytools Magnetic V Block is engineered for professionals who demand reliability and precision in dimensional calibration and light machining operations. Constructed from hardened steel, the block provides a robust, wear‑resistant foundation that endures the rigors of daily shop floor use. Integrated within the block are three powerful neodymium magnets—one on the upper surface, one on the lower surface, and one along the V‑channel—each activated by a convenient on/off switch. This triple‑side magnetic configuration enables the block to cling securely to any ferrous workbench, jig, or fixture while simultaneously attracting a workpiece into the V‑groove for hands‑free handling. The dimensions of 2.875 inches in height, 2.25 inches in width, and 3.5 inches in depth create a compact yet spacious profile that accommodates a wide range of part geometries, from small machined components to irregularly shaped items. All contact faces are precision‑ground flat and smooth, ensuring consistent alignment and minimizing surface damage. The block’s weight of 3.84 pounds adds stability without sacrificing portability, making it an ideal addition to both stationary workstations and mobile tool kits.

Usage

Designed for versatility, the Magnetic V Block excels in a variety of industrial and scientific environments. In a machine shop, technicians can place the block on a steel workbench, engage the magnets, and quickly secure a workpiece for drilling, tapping, or grinding without the need for clamps or fixtures. In calibration labs, the block serves as a reliable reference surface for dimensional inspection, allowing inspectors to hold test pieces steady while measuring with micrometers, calipers, or coordinate‑measuring machines. The magnetic hold is especially useful when working with delicate or oddly shaped components that would be difficult to clamp conventionally. Because the magnets can be turned off, the block can be easily repositioned or stored without residual attraction to nearby metal surfaces. Its compact size also makes it suitable for field service technicians who need a portable, magnetic work‑holding solution for on‑site repairs or adjustments. Whether you are a machinist, a quality‑control engineer, or a hobbyist fabricator, the block provides a quick, secure, and repeatable method for positioning workpieces in a wide range of applications.

Why Choose Us

Choosing the Taytools Magnetic V Block means selecting a product backed by rigorous manufacturing standards and a commitment to customer satisfaction. Taytools sources high‑grade steel and subjects each block to a heat‑treatment process that hardens the contact surfaces while preserving magnetic strength. The triple‑side magnet design is a proprietary feature that delivers unmatched holding power compared to single‑magnet V blocks, reducing the risk of workpiece slippage during critical operations. Each unit undergoes a final inspection to verify dimensional accuracy, magnetic functionality, and surface finish, ensuring that you receive a tool that performs exactly as advertised. In addition, Taytools offers responsive after‑sales support, including technical assistance, warranty coverage, and easy access to replacement parts if needed. By investing in this block, you gain a durable, high‑performance work‑holding solution that minimizes downtime, improves repeatability, and enhances overall productivity in your workshop or laboratory.

FAQ

Can the magnets be turned off?

Yes, the block includes an on/off switch that allows you to disengage the magnets instantly, making it easy to reposition or store the block without it sticking to nearby metal surfaces.

What type of steel is used for the block?

The block is made from hardened tool steel that has been heat‑treated to provide a hard, flat surface while maintaining the magnetic properties needed for strong attraction.

Is the block suitable for use with non‑ferrous workpieces?

The magnetic attraction works only with ferrous (magnetic) surfaces. For non‑ferrous workpieces, you can still use the block as a stable platform, but the magnetic hold will not engage.

How much weight can the block support?

While the block itself weighs 3.84 lb, it can securely hold workpieces up to approximately 10 lb when the magnets are engaged, depending on the shape and distribution of the load.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Taytools provides a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects, ensuring that any issues related to material or workmanship are addressed promptly.
