Retrieval Tool Flex 4 Jaw

The Mag-Mate flexible retrieval tool uses four spring-steel jaws to grip dropped parts in tight engine bays or machinery. A spring-plunger handle extends the flexible shaft to a 13.5 in reach. Magnetic pull capacity reaches 10 lb for ferrous items. Jaw capacity is 1 in and head diameter is 1/2 in.

Manual Operation Low Effort

No power source is required so there is no heat, noise or electrical draw. The steel shaft and jaws transmit hand force directly to the target. Springs return the jaws automatically after each grab. Operation stays quiet and cool in any workshop environment.

Upgrades Rigid Pick-Up Tools

This tool replaces rigid magnetic wands or fixed-jaw grabbers that cannot snake around obstacles. The flexible section reaches past brackets and hoses where straight tools fail. Buyers who need more than 10 lb magnetic lift or a longer reach than 13.5 in should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do you extend the 4-jaw head through the 4-1/2 in flexible section without bending the steel shaft?

Push the spring-plunger handle to advance the jaws; the fixed steel shaft transmits the motion while the flexible section curves around obstacles.

What part of the Mag-Mate Retrieve Tool Flex 4 Jaw 13.5 L 1.5 Cap wears out first and needs replacement?

The four spring-steel jaws and the internal spring-plunger mechanism are the service items; the fixed steel shaft and handle rarely fail.

At what weight does the magnetic pull release during sustained vertical lifts?

The magnet lets go at its 10 lb maximum pull capacity, which is the first limit reached under continuous load.
