Earth-Chain MagVISE blocks use a powerful, permanent, (rare earth) magnet to securely hold workpieces without manual fixturing or vise setups. According to Earth-Chain,
MagVISE uses no electricity, requires no maintenance, and is resistant to wear.
Each MagVISE block is rated up to 4,620 lbs. of holding power, with a 3.5X safety factor for over 16,000 lbs. of magnetic force.
MagVISE blocks can be grouped together to create custom workholding solutions. The holding power of the magnets is activated with a turn of a wrench.
