Platinum Tools 2" Top Mount Magnet HPH J-Hook, Black, Box Of 10
Efficient cable management is essential for clean installations, reduced downtime, and safer working environments. The Platinum Tools 2" Top Mount Magnet HPH J-Hook combines powerful rare-earth magnets with a practical J-hook design to provide fast, secure organization of low voltage cables in temporary setups. This box of 10 hooks is engineered for quick attachment to ferrous surfaces, delivering a reliable holding force without the need for drilling, screws, or messy fasteners. The 2-inch top-mount footprint gives you ample space to cradle multiple cables while keeping runs tidy, accessible, and protected from foot traffic, equipment movement, or accidental tugs. Whether you’re wiring a data rack, staging AV gear for an event, or organizing a temporary network install, these magnetic J-hooks help you route cables where you need them most—off the floor, out of the way, and ready for service. With a durable black finish that blends into professional environments, these hooks are designed for repeated use, making them a cost-effective solution for contractors, technicians, and facility teams who value speed, safety, and clean aesthetics.
- Effortless magnetic mounting for rapid cable routing: The combined strength of rare-earth magnets and a robust J-hook geometry lets you attach securely to ferrous surfaces in seconds, eliminating the need for drilling, screws, or mounting hardware. This enables swift reconfigurations during temporary projects, service updates, or on-the-fly venue setups, helping you stay ahead of deadlines and reduce downtime.
- High holding power with safe, testable limits: The magnets deliver a breakaway strength up to 90 lbs, providing confident support for bundles of low voltage cables in dynamic environments. As with all magnetic mounts, tests should be performed on site to verify holding force under real-world conditions, ensuring the setup remains stable when movement or vibration occurs.
- 120-degree cradle angle and 2-inch top-mount design: The 2-inch top-mount length offers a generous cradle for multiple cables, while the J-hook’s geometry keeps cables neatly organized and easily separable for maintenance or re-routing. This design reduces cable strain, helps maintain correct bend radii, and contributes to longer cable life in temporary installations.
- Discrete, professional finish for any environment: The hook comes in a sleek black coated finish that blends with equipment racks, server rooms, staging venues, and workshop environments. The low-profile appearance keeps cables organized without drawing unwanted attention, promoting a clean, professional aesthetic in data centers, labs, and trade shows.
- Cost-effective, scalable solution: Sold as a box of 10, these J-hooks are ideal for larger installations, ongoing maintenance cycles, or projects requiring multiple mounting points. Having a spare set on hand enables quick reconfiguration and expansion without delays, helping teams stay organized across multiple rooms or sites.

how to install Platinum Tools 2" Top Mount Magnet HPH J-Hook
- Preparation: Clean the mounting surface to remove dust, oil, and debris. A clean surface ensures maximum magnet contact and holding power. For best results, choose a stable, ferrous surface such as steel racks, enclosures, or metal studs.
- Positioning: Determine the optimal location for cable routing. Consider proximity to power sources, patch panels, and equipment inputs to minimize cable tension and kinks. Plan the layout so that cables remain organized and accessible for maintenance.
- Mounting: Place the magnet base of the J-hook onto the desired ferrous surface. Apply steady, even pressure for several seconds to ensure full magnet engagement. Avoid attempting to mount over non-ferrous surfaces, as the magnetic hold will be significantly reduced or absent.
- Cable arrangement: Loop or cradle cables within the 2-inch top-mount hook, keeping runs tidy and respecting bend radius guidelines. Avoid overpacking the cradle to prevent cable damage and to allow for easy removal or re-routing when needed.
- Testing and safety checks: Gently tug on the cable bundle to verify the hold. If the force required to move the hook is excessive or if the magnet seems to detach, re-seat it on a different spot or consult additional mounting points. Periodically inspect hooks for wear, surface damage, or loss of magnet performance.
- Maintenance and replacement: Keep a few spare J-hooks on hand for future changes or expansions. If the finish shows significant wear or if magnets become less effective, replace the hook to maintain an organized, safe work environment.
Frequently asked questions
- Q: What is the breakaway strength of the magnets? A: The magnets offer up to 90 lbs of breakaway strength, with the caveat that the actual holding force must be tested on site due to variances in surface material, cleanliness, and cable weight.
- Q: Can I use these on any surface? A: The magnetic hold is designed for ferrous (magnetic) surfaces. They will not attach effectively to non-ferrous materials like aluminum or plastic surfaces.
- Q: Are these suitable for outdoor use? A: The description refers to temporary installations on metal surfaces. For outdoor use, ensure the surface remains ferrous and protected from excessive moisture, which could affect durability and magnet performance over time.
- Q: How many hooks are in a box? A: Each box contains 10 pieces, providing ample quantity for larger projects or ongoing work across multiple locations.
- Q: What types of cables can these hold? A: They are designed for low voltage cables used in temporary applications, AV and data cable runs, and similar installations where quick organization is beneficial.
- Q: Do I need tools to install? A: No tools are required for magnetic mounting on ferrous surfaces. Simply position the hook and press firmly to engage the magnet. For best results, test holding force before fully relying on the setup.
