Magnetic Strips for Heavier Tools

[thinman]

Got a bunch of ratchets and some miscellaneous wrenches that I want to put on a magnetic strip that's mounted on a facing board under the top of my side workbench. Ratchets are kind of heavy, especially 1/2" drive.

What is the best magnetic strip for heavier tools?

HF has a really good heavy duty magnetic strip. Guy a work uses it to put his bigg *** snap on pry bar on.

Thank you Focus.Freak. Didn't know Harbor Freight had magnetic strips. At $4.99 a piece it would be hard to not come out okay.

I've use some from sears but not craftsman. Its just some off brand usually where they sell the peg board stuff. If remember they where about $14 they usually have a strip of yellow tape holding magnets in but I just put some silver tape over that.
Pardon the mess on middle of projects.



Have a good one, Gerard
