StrongHand® Grasshopper Magnetic Welding Finger AGH230

Extremely versatile, the Stronghand Grasshopper Magnetic, is a seriously handy gadget to steady the work piece ready for welding.  Sometimes referred to as a welders third hand, the magnetic grasshopper uses a magnetic base to fasten to the workbench or workpiece and a spring loaded arm to hold the component / part in place.

The magnet is ideal for positional work too. It can be used to hold tabs and parts to be tacked in the vertical and overhead positions rather than just flat.  Simply magnetise the base to the job and place the part under the sprig loaded arm to hold it in place.  A tack can then be performed with both hands free.

Steady small parts, such as: bolts, nuts, and thin plates for tack welding at odd angles with full welding clearance.

Many welders will make a third hand as a first project, but for the price, these Grasshopper magnetic models are cost efficient.  By simply resting the arm / prong onto the item being stabilised, weight is applied to hold it in place.
