Why Choose Gator?
When Gator Magnetics says “Holds up to 25 lbs,” it means real performance. Unlike most brands that measure pull force (how hard it is to lift the magnet straight off a surface), we test shear force—the downward pressure of actual items pulling on the hook. This ensures dependable results under real conditions.
Most magnetic hooks are rated using 1.5-inch-thick steel plates, which don’t reflect what’s in most garages or workshops. We test on 16-gauge steel, roughly 0.06 inches thick, so our numbers match the steel walls, cabinets, and beams found in everyday use.
Our patented magnetic technology ensures consistent grip strength, clean removal, and long-lasting reliability. Gator Magnetics redefines what magnetic hooks can do—strong, safe, and built for real life.
Have Questions About Your Surface?
All Gator Magnetics products are tested on 16–28 gauge steel—the same type used in real garages, sheds, and pole barns. Results may vary slightly based on surface thickness, coatings, or paint layers.
If you’re unsure about your surface, we’re here to help. Email customersupport@gatormagnetics.com and our team will guide you in confirming compatibility and setup for the best results.
