Purelux Pro Magnet Vertical Magnetic Light Mounts, Set of 2

An LED bar on the roof usually means four holes in the panel and a decision you live with for years. That is not always an option - a lease, fresh paint, a vehicle kept for a season. A set of magnetic feet stands the bar up in seconds and takes it off just as fast.

The set holds two feet, each on two magnets - four 88 mm magnets rated 40 kg each. The upright brackets grip the bar by its ends, the way its factory mounts do, and the pair of magnets under each foot stops the light from tilting. The magnets are rubber coated, which protects the paint and adds friction.

Key benefits

• A complete set for a bar - two feet and four magnets, everything needed to stand an LED panel up. No second piece to buy.
• End mounting - the upright brackets grip the bar the way its factory mounts do, so the light sits square with no adapters.
• Two magnets per foot - the pair stops the light from tilting, and tilt is usually what tears a magnet off the panel.
• 40 kg of pull per magnet - the manufacturer figure for vertical pull on a flat surface; four of them work in the set.
• Rubber coating - it does not scratch paint and adds friction, so the foot does not slide on the panel.
• The bracket can be re-drilled - if you want the light lower, the manufacturer allows a hole in a different part of the bracket.

Technical data

Before you order - important

The mount is not approved for road use. The manufacturer says so plainly: despite the strong twin magnet, with enough airflow and vibration the light can swing and, in the worst case, come off. This is a mount for working at a standstill - on a yard, in the woods or next to a machine - not for driving with a light on the roof.

Second point: the 40 kg figure applies to a flat surface. On a curved roof the contact area drops and the hold is noticeably weaker. Wipe sand and grit off the panel before you set the foot down.

What it fits

LED bars and work panels mounted by their ends - the bracket hole is 8 mm, and if your light has a thicker bolt or you want it lower, the manufacturer allows the bracket to be re-drilled. On a very long bar it is worth adding a Pro Magnet Horizontal in the middle to support it flat.

Why it is worth it

• A bar ready to work without a single hole in the bodywork.
• Four magnets in the set, two per foot - the light cannot tilt and tear a magnet loose.
• Rubber on the magnets protects the paint and keeps the foot from sliding.

Frequently asked questions

How many pieces are in the set?

Two feet, so four magnets in total - a complete set for one LED bar.

Can I drive with the bar on the magnets?

The manufacturer does not allow it. With enough airflow and vibration the light can swing and, in the worst case, come off. This is a mount for working at a standstill and for moving a light between vehicles.

How does the Vertical differ from the Horizontal?

The Vertical has an upright bracket and holds the light by its ends, like the factory bar mounts - which is why it comes as a pair. The Horizontal is a flat foot with a hole on top, for lights with their own leg and for round work lights, and is sold singly. On a long bar the two can be combined: Vertical at the ends, Horizontal as support in the middle.

What bolt fits the bracket?

The hole is 8 mm. If your light has a thicker bolt, the bracket can be re-drilled - the manufacturer allows it, and it also lets you bring the light lower.

How well does it hold?

The manufacturer states 40 kg per magnet in vertical pull, with four magnets in the set. That figure applies to a flat surface - on a curved roof the contact area drops and the hold is weaker.

Summary

• A pair of magnetic feet, four 88 mm magnets at 40 kg each.
• 210 x 80 mm, 8 mm fixing hole, 600 g per set.
• End mounting for a bar, fitted without drilling the bodywork.
• The manufacturer does not approve driving with a light on this mount.
