Every real job is worse than that test. A bolt lying on its side touches the magnet on a curve, so the contact patch is a fraction of the face. Paint, grease or a layer of grime adds an air gap, and magnetic force falls away sharply with distance. Reach through a hole and you are pulling at an angle, which peels the part off instead of lifting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 14px\"\u003eSo read the rating as a ceiling, not a promise. In practice the 8 lb head is a screws-and-washers tool — the size of thing that actually gets dropped — and the 20 lb head is what you want when the answer is a socket, a spanner or a bolt with some mass to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0\"\u003eThis is also why some buyers of the small version call the magnet weak.
