Telescope Magnet Holder KS Tools 550.1004, 13 mm head, 178–675 mm telescopic shaft

The Telescope Magnet Holder KS Tools 550.1004, 13 mm head, 178–675 mm telescopic shaft is a compact extendable retrieval tool designed to pick up ferrous parts from confined or hard-to-reach spaces. The tool features a 13 mm magnetic head attached to a telescoping shaft that adjusts smoothly between 178 mm and 675 mm, enabling controlled extension and retraction for tasks in workshops, garages and maintenance environments. The magnet secures small metal components such as screws, nuts and washers for safe removal without direct hand contact.

Advantages

The 13 mm magnetic head provides focused holding power for small ferrous items while the telescopic shaft allows precise reach and access in narrow gaps. The compact collapsed length facilitates storage and portability, and the extendable design offers versatility across different working distances. The lightweight construction supports single-handed use and reduces fatigue during repetitive retrieval tasks.

Suitable for

• Retrieving dropped screws, nuts and washers from engine bays or machinery
• Accessing fasteners and metal debris in confined or recessed areas
• General workshop and garage maintenance tasks where magnetic pickup is needed
• Assembly and repair work that requires safe removal of small ferrous components

Key specifications

• Magnetic head diameter: 13 mm
• Telescopic shaft length: adjustable from 178 mm to 675 mm
• Construction: lightweight extendable shaft with magnetic tip
• Primary function: retrieval of ferrous metal parts from confined spaces

How to use

Extend the telescopic shaft to the required length by pulling the sections apart until reaching the desired extension, then position the 13 mm magnetic head near the target metal object. Bring the magnetic head into contact with or close proximity to the ferrous item so the magnet can capture it. Retract the shaft carefully while holding the retrieved item, and collapse the tool for storage after use. Use steady, controlled movements to avoid losing the item during retraction.

Recommendations

Ensure the magnetic head is clean and free of debris for optimal holding power. Avoid using the tool near sensitive electronic devices or magnetic media. Do not use the magnet holder to lift loads beyond its intended small-part retrieval capability.
