Switchable Magnetic Ground Clamps
Next generation ground clamps from Magswitch Technology offer higher amperage clamping and stronger hold to let welders quickly setup, weld and move on to the next job.
Posted: April 4, 2016
Magswitch Technology, Inc. (Lafayette, CO), a worldwide leading manufacturer of switchable magnets, is introducing a new and improved line of magnetic ground clamps that further revolutionize the welding and fabrication industry, one tool at a time. The second generation of the Magswitch Ground Clamp Series has an all new fin design with increased surface area that lowers temperature by almost 27 percent. This generation offers higher amperage clamp including 300 amp, 600 amp and 800 amp. These clamps all have a stronger hold in the shear or vertical position.
The improved ground clamps let welders quickly setup, weld and move on to the next job. Simply place the clamp on a clean surface, turn it on and instantly ground on flat or round surfaces. These revolutionary clamps have the ability to attach to surfaces where traditional clamps cannot. This provides instantaneous grounding once turned on, increasing welding efficiency by eliminating the need for welding tabs. Their complete ON/OFF technology allows the grounding clamp to stay clean. Turn off the ground clamp and watch the debris fall away after each use!

Using thermal analysis, engineers found ways to improve upon an already proven design. The fin design on the new ground clamps reduce the size of high temperature zones around the magnets. The reduction in temperature reduces the amount of heat that the magnet is subjected to and extends the life of the tool. With the new model, the fins reduce the temperature through the unit resulting in a significantly cooler handle temperature.
Magswitch Technology provides simple solutions that encompass safety, as well a commitment to green technology, by utilizing the enduring power of rare earth magnets without electricity. Every product is proudly designed, developed, manufactured and tested to ISO 9001:2008 standards.
