Value Collection 285-2700 Magnetizer Demagnetizer

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 285-2700 is a handheld magnetizer and demagnetizer tool designed for quick, tool-free magnetizing or demagnetizing of screwdrivers, drill bits, and other small ferrous tools. The unit measures 9 inches in length and 1 inch in height, with a 2.5-inch round ring opening that accepts most standard tool shanks. A built-in handle allows for single-hand operation. Operating on 110 volts AC, this tool is suited for benchtop use in workshops, service vans, or maintenance facilities. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general maintenance professionals use this tool to add or remove magnetic charge from fastener-driving tools in seconds.

The 285-2700 is appropriate for residential and light commercial service environments where technicians frequently handle small fasteners in tight spaces. Magnetized screwdrivers and bits help retain screws during installation in panels, enclosures, and mechanical equipment. Demagnetizing is useful when working near sensitive electronic components, meters, or sensors where residual magnetism can cause interference or false readings. This tool covers both functions in a single compact unit, making it a practical addition to any service kit.

Key Features

• Magnetizes and demagnetizes ferrous tools using separate ring zones on the same unit
• 2.5-inch round ring opening accommodates standard screwdriver and bit shanks
• 9-inch overall length with integrated handle for stable single-hand grip
• Operates on 110 volts AC standard shop or outlet power
• Compact 1-inch profile stores easily in a tool drawer or bag
• Weighs 3 pounds for stable benchtop use without tipping

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard ferrous screwdrivers, drill bits, and small hand tools with shanks that fit within a 2.5-inch round ring opening. Not compatible with non-ferrous tools or materials.

Installation Notes

No installation is required. Plug the unit into a grounded 110-volt AC outlet before use. To magnetize a tool, pass it slowly through the designated magnetizing ring; to demagnetize, pass it slowly through the demagnetizing ring and withdraw gradually. Keep the tool away from credit cards, magnetic media, electronic components, and sensitive instrumentation during operation.
