How much weight can these handy hooks support? It depends, especially on what type of surface it is sticking to. As described in How Much Will a Magnet Hold, it depends very much on the friction between the two surfaces, which is difficult to predict. Here are the results from a few measurements we made:
Surface | Supported Load [lb] |
Thick (1") steel plate, cold rolled steel | 20 - 24 |
Steel Door, Painted | 10 |
Refrigerator (painted steel) | 7 - 8 |
Filing Cabinet | 12 - 14 |
