Magnetic Alignment Pin

Product Overview


The Strong Hand Tools Magnetic Alignment Pin (MAP200) is a compact (0.72 kg) pipe-fitting tool engineered from CNC-machined, anodized aluminum to streamline the leveling and alignment of ferrous pipe flanges.

Designed for efficient operation even while wearing heavy welding gloves, it utilizes spring-loaded, self-aligning pin heads that drop directly into adjacent bolt holes while integrated, ultra-strong magnets instantly lock the unit securely to the steel surface.

Featuring a built-in bubble vial for fast horizontal calibration, the adjustable design accommodates pin diameters from 12.7 mm to 50.8 mm and center-to-center hole spacings from 79.8 mm to 177.0 mm. This makes it highly versatile across standard flanges ranging from 12.7 mm to 508.0 mm, and it comes complete with a rugged, protective foam storage case to safeguard its precision components between tasks.

Adjustable Pin Span

Slides smoothly to accommodate a center-to-center distance from a minimum of 79.8 mm up to a maximum of 177.0 mm.

Magnetic Pull Force

A strong 2.0 kg magnetic hold that locks the tool tight against the steel flange face so it won't slip or sag.

Body Material

Premium CNC-machined, anodized aluminum construction built to survive rough field drops while maintaining exact geometric tolerances.

Storage

Ships in a custom-fit protective foam case to shield the precision vial and machined surfaces from being scratched up in a heavy job box.

No-Fumble, Threadless Setup

Eliminates the frustration of spinning dirty, slag-covered nuts or dealing with crossed threads.

One-Handed Operation

Designed to be used completely while wearing heavy welding gloves. You simply snap it in and go to work.

Simultaneous Leveling

Features an integrated horizontal bubble vial right in the center frame, allowing you to align the holes and check your level in one movement without grabbing a separate torpedo level.

Spring-Loaded Self-Centering

The tapered pin heads instantly seat themselves firmly against the edges of the bolt holes for perfect concentric accuracy.

Why a fabricator needs in their workshop

Traditional alignment pins turn a simple fit-up into a multi-step balancing act: you insert the pins, struggle to tighten them down with slick gloves, grab a separate level, and constantly tap the flange into place. If you drop a loose nut down a pipe or into the dirt, your momentum stops entirely.

The MAP200 turns this into a 5-second task. Because it uses internal springs and powerful rare-earth magnets, it clamps itself flush against the ferrous flange face automatically. It dramatically reduces setup time on repeat weldments, freeing up your hands to position the pipe, check your square, and lay down your tack welds without fighting your tools.

This new Sawhorse kit is unreal! For someone like me who is always working in and out of the shop, these fixture horses are next level! I can’t wait to get 3 more so I can clamp down some big gates on job sites and bang them out way faster than ever.

We purchased these specifically to help with an upcoming project, as well as future builds. We just got our tables and couldn't be happier with the quality. Assembly was easy once we got the orientation of everything right.

This is a very handy tool to help you with locating the degree you need on a round tube or pipe instead of having to assume you’re in the right spot. Plus the magnetic base helps tremendously by staying where you place it and not moving or falling off. Great tool!
