Strong Hand Tools MLD600 90° Magnetic Square – Inside/Outside Magnets, 6" Weld Fixture, 40 lbs Pull

Overview

The Strong Hand Tools MLD600 is a compact, 6-inch fixed-angle magnetic square designed to streamline metalworking and welding setup. With two independent magnets that adapt to both inside and outside orientations, this fixture delivers consistent magnetic force across different work angles. A robust 40 lb pull helps keep stock steady while you align components, trim, or tack weld, providing a reliable reference point without sacrificing visibility or clearance where you need it most.

In practice, the MLD600 supports clean, repeatable positioning for a range of stock, from sheet metal and tubes to square and flat profiles. The design emphasizes flexibility: hold stock from the outside to leave space for inside welds, or flip to hold from the inside for outside welds. This versatility makes it a practical addition to any fabrication or repair shop where accuracy and workflow speed matter.

What it Holds and How It Works

• Holds and positions sheet metal, round pipes, square, angled, and flat stock with steady magnetic support.
• Independent inner and outer magnets provide consistent holding force for both inside- and outside-weld setups.
• Mounting holes allow linking two magnets together, enabling simple fixturing elements for quick repeats.
• Magnet includes a hex hole for breakaway leverage, aiding quick adjustments without rework.
• Designed with 90° geometry and 30°/60° reference angles for fast, repeatable alignment.

Real-World Uses

Imagine forming brackets or mounting tabs where precise edge alignment is critical. The MLD600 helps you establish a true reference plane, then holds components steady as you tack or weld a seam. Its 6-inch footprint fits neatly in cramped bays or along lengthy profiles, while the 40 lb pull keeps parts in place during light pressure setups. For fixturing tasks, you can link magnets to create a simple, reusable jig that speeds repetitive work without sacrificing accuracy.

Why Choose the MLD600

• Versatility: switch between inside and outside magnet configurations to suit weld access and clearance needs.
• Stability: a dependable 40 lbs of magnetic pull helps control movement during setup and tack welding.
• Practical design: 6" length with 90° + 30°/60° reference angles supports quick alignment in tight spaces.
• Fixturing-friendly: mounting holes enable simple linkage of magnets for repeatable fixtures.

Note: The MLD600 is intended to assist with alignment and positioning. Benefits are described as possibilities to enhance workflow and accuracy, not guarantees of result. Use as part of a broader shop setup to optimize your welding or fabrication process.
