Description

The Gedore magnet extension with 1/2″ drive (1990M 2697920) is a high-quality magnetic extension tool designed to work with hand-operated sockets. It securely holds bolts or nuts in place using a powerful built-in permanent magnet, ensuring they stay centered and fixed during tightening or loosening tasks—especially in tight or hard-to-reach areas. Eliminates the common frustration of dropped fasteners during assembly or disassembly. It increases productivity, reduces the risk of losing parts, and ensures faster, smoother operations—even in limited space or at awkward angles. It’s especially valuable for professionals working on high-stakes tasks where precision and efficiency are critical.

Key features:
– Magnetic holding system: Integrated strong permanent magnet holds screws or nuts firmly inside the socket—ideal for overhead or awkward positions.
– Hands-free centering: The magnetic field centers fasteners in the socket automatically without requiring direct contact or adjustments.
– One-handed operation: Enables fast, single-handed use—just attach the fastener, and you’re ready to go, saving time and effort.
– Compatibility: Designed for use with sockets that conform to DIN 3120 and ISO 1174 standards. Fits sockets with through-hole and square drive connections, using a ball locking device for secure attachment.
– Durable construction: Made from Vanadium steel (31CrV3) with a chrome-plated finish for enhanced strength, wear resistance, and long-term durability.
– Compact and efficient: Specially suited for confined or hard-to-reach spaces, where traditional fastening methods may be difficult or impractical.

Uses and applications:
– Automotive repair and assembly.
– Industrial maintenance.
– Mechanical engineering.
– Construction.
– Home improvement and professional handyman work

Ideal for:
– Fastening nuts and bolts in engine bays.
– Assembly work where parts may drop or shift.
– Tightening screws in enclosed machinery or equipment.
– Overhead installations where both hands are not easily available.
