Permanent magnetic base M8 (M208.126) — 36 kg holding force, 80 mm diameter

The Permanent magnetic base M8 (M208.126) is a compact magnetic foot for positioning stands and measuring rods on flat iron and steel surfaces across workshop and metrology applications.

• 36 kg magnetic holding force
• M8 threaded mount for standard posts
• 80 mm diameter, low 13 mm profile
• Secure on flat iron and steel surfaces

Reliable mounting for precise measurement

A strong permanent magnet with a 36 kg holding force ensures that measuring posts and indicator stands remain securely fixed during inspection and set-up operations. The low profile of 13 mm reduces lever action at the base, improving rigidity and limiting movement that can distort readings. This combination of force and compactness supports consistent measurement conditions in busy workshop environments, helping to reduce rework and downtime.

Fast connection to standard stands and posts

The integrated M8 thread provides a conventional mounting point for a wide range of measuring rods and support posts, allowing quick assembly without adapters. Compatibility with common threads speeds up changeovers between tasks and simplifies tooling logistics in the workshop. The threaded interface is optimised for mechanical stability, facilitating reliable clamping of dial indicators, test indicators and small fixtures.

Compact round base with effective contact area

With an 80 mm diameter round contact face the base offers a good balance between adhesion and manoeuvrability. The circular geometry distributes magnetic force evenly, which is advantageous when attaching to flat iron or steel surfaces where full-surface contact improves grip. The unit’s moderate mass and footprint allow placement in constrained spaces while still providing dependable support for measuring equipment.

Practical workshop resilience and versatility

Designed as a straightforward, maintenance-free magnetic foot, the device fits into inspection rigs and general workshop stands where a permanent magnetic hold is preferred over mechanical clamping. Suitability for measuring rods on flat iron and steel surfaces makes it well suited to routine set-ups in metalworking and quality-control stations. The robust construction supports repeated daily use, enhancing operational reliability without complex handling.
