In heavy industry, wind & energy and oil & gas, the same challenge keeps coming up:
You need to mount equipment on steel surfaces – quickly, safely and without damaging the structure.
• drilling weakens the structure and takes time
• welding is permanent and requires preparation
• temporary solutions are often unstable
This applies on construction sites, in ports, on offshore installations and across energy projects.
The solution
V-MAG industrial magnets offer a simple solution:
Mount directly onto steel – no tools, no modifications and no waiting time.
Place the magnet → it holds → your installation is ready.
Why does it create value in practice?
It’s not about the magnet – it’s about what you save:
• faster installation → less downtime
• no permanent modifications → keep full flexibility
• easy to reposition → adapt your setup as needed
• no surface damage → reduced maintenance
In environments where things change daily, flexibility isn’t a benefit – it’s a requirement.
Typical applications in industry
V-MAG is widely used for:
• cables and temporary installations
• work lights and floodlights
• sensors and measurement equipment
• cameras and surveillance
• smaller technical components
It is especially relevant when the installation is not permanent – or when the position needs to change over time.
Use in wind & energy and oil & gas
In the energy sector, the requirements are even higher:
• temporary setups during installation and service
• cable routing on containers and technical units
• mounting without affecting coating, structure or approvals
In both wind & energy and oil & gas, the ability to work fast – without permanent modifications – is critical.
Which version should you choose?
Typically, you choose between:
• 70 kg holding force (pull force) – for lighter installations such as cables, small lights and sensors
• 340 kg holding force (pull force) – for heavier equipment, larger setups and demanding environments
The right choice depends on load, safety requirements and the environment.
In short
When working with steel surfaces, the question isn’t if you need to mount something –
but how to do it in the smartest way.
V-MAG allows you to mount quickly, flexibly and without locking yourself into a permanent solution.
Q&A
Can the magnet really hold that much?
Yes – the stated holding force (e.g. 70 kg or 340 kg) is measured under optimal conditions. In practice, it depends on the surface, contact area and load direction.
Can I use the magnet on all types of steel?
It works best on clean, flat steel surfaces. It does not work on aluminium and only partially on certain types of stainless steel.
Is it a safe solution in practice – also in offshore and industrial environments?
Yes – as long as it is used correctly. It is especially suitable because it avoids drilling and welding, meaning no impact on structure or coating.
