2000lb Strong 360 Degree Fishing Magnet for Magnetic Fishing, Strong Heavy Duty Neodymium N52 Magnets for Salvage Treasure Hunting in Rivers, Oceans and Lakes

My family really enjoys using this fishing magnet. We haven’t found anything cool yet but the hunt is the most fun part and we’re doing it together so it’s quality time well spent. This thing is surprisingly strong. I do recommend buying a longer fishing rope for it so you have more line to play with. I also learned that this magnet is strong enough to remove the alarm sensors off clothing - figured this out on YouTube after Target didn’t take one off and it also didn’t alarm when I left.

Okay, so I had this and loved using it but let my grandson use it and he lost it. One needs to be very careful when using it around anything metal because it is so strong, it won’t come off. He got it stuck on the bridge and then couldn’t get it off. I night buy another but will wait until spring.

Very powerful magnet you fet within 2 or 3 inches from something metsl it will suck it right up!

We got it for magnet fishing and it works super nicely! It is that pretty heavy for me so my boyfriend always has to throw it in for me lol. It hasn’t rusted at all and we got out pretty frequently in the summer and spring. The magnet is incredibly strong and brings up lots of good stuff!

Lots of fun but it is strong

Super Strong! At first I was a little disappointed because of the size but I could not put that thing near any metal unless I wanted another big bang event! Be careful not to keep it around any Electronics. I ended up making a wooden box for it so that it's less attracted to nearby metals.

I was looking for a 360 degree magnet to add to my collection. I found this on Amazon for $75 and figured I'd give it a show. Some of the reviews state things like "Much Smaller than the picture makes it look" and "This thing can't hold 2,000 pounds!" Both of these are true statements. It's only about the size of a tennis ball but it is impressive. No, it can lift 2,000 pounds, but no 2,000 pound magnet can. In fact no 500lb magnet can lift 500lb. You need to understand these ratings before you rant about them. A single sided 1000 pound magnet should be able to move (not lift) a 1000 lb item. A 2 sided, 1000 lb magnet has the pulling strength of only 500 lb on each side. Not 1,000. And these numbers only apply in the most ideal situations, meaning locking an entire magnet surface onto a VERY flat metal surface made of one of the more magnetic metals. No 2000 pound magnet is going to lift the back of your car off the ground though. So let's get back to this one. I throw it into ocean harbors in my New England city. My previous magnet was a 2 sided 1,200 pound and it was pretty good. This thing blows it out of the water. It's small size is actually beneficial. Making it easier to throw and less likely to get snagged. Almost every single pull it comes back covered in metal on all sides. Just yesterday it pulled up a 4 foot long piece of metal that weighed 85 pounds. Now keep in mind that it was only making contact about a 1/2 inch x 14inch area of this 85 lb piece and it hauled it up with no problem. This is about as good of a magnet fishing magnet as you can get for under $100. I recommend pairing it with the Gear Aid 1100 (100ft) paracord/carabiner combo selling here on Amazon for $13. Together they are awesome. No, I have no affiliation with any of these products I'm just a guy from Massachusetts who likes magnet fishing and is happy to share what he learns.

This magnet is an overpriced joke. At first I was really cautious, not wanting to pinch my fingers. Then after trying a few small items, it became apparent this magnet was weak. I have magnets that are less than an inch on each side that are far, far, far stronger than this magnet. My young daughter can safely play with this, pull it off any high-ferrous steel surface, and not get pinched or hurt. I have other 5-10 dollar magnets that she can't pull off or that can pinch her. But this magnet (advertised as 2000 pounds, 360 degrees) is so weak it's completely child-safe in terms of pinching risk. There's just no strength. For example, a 10 pound pull removes it from a typical non-stainless steel service panel. Not at all what I expected from something advertised as 2000 pounds. The description of this product is enticing, but the product you get isn't what's in the description. You get a weak magnet wrapped in a thin stainless case with a nice stainless eyebolt. I paid ~$65 on sale and that was at least $55 too much. The only thing of value is the stainless eyebolt. The $120+ regular price for this magnet is absolutely outlandish. That's over a 10x markup. In short, don't waste your time if you need a strong magnet. What you will get isn't at all what is described.

I'm sure the companies have some sort of lab test to give magnets their ratings, but your shouldn't put too much faith in those numbers when using in the real world. The rated pull should correspond to how strong the surrounding magnetic field is and yet ... this unit can grab a free nail about 2" away. It is not at all difficult to remove any object stuck to it, so I don't see where their 1320 lbs. pull rating comes into play. Maybe under 'ideal and specific' conditions, but in practical use it's just another magnet.

Excellent. I actually have it stored, holding rope and gear from the I-Beam in my basement. Only way to get it off is with a pry bar. It’s the bits, yeah.

Let me tell you about this guy. It’s small easy to carry but don’t let it get too attached to your car. This thing attracts to metal the way how Cupid attaches couples. Havent found any cons yet about this yet.

Colis refuser car pas l aimant dedans , je devais être remboursé et toujours pas fait , boîte pas sérieuse ATTENTION

I purchased this magnet with 1 project in mind. I had a heavy chain to retreive from the bottom of a lake. I had my doubts that the magnet would work but boy oh boy was I wrong. This magnet hooked on and did not let go easily. I am extremely satisfied.
