<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Common-Apps-Image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2891\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/space-line.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2489\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Do They Work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">A magnetic chuck is activated by manually turning the key from the on to the off position. Within the chuck, the magnets are always active, however, the magnetic flux remains locked inside the chuck when it is turned off.<br><br>Once the chuck is turned on, the magnets are aligned with the top plate, and the magnetic flux travels above the top plate. When a workpiece is applied to the top, it is secured as the flux is locked onto this. This will allow the user to securely work on the workpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How do I attach them to my workbench?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-normal-font-size\"><strong> <\/strong>Simply screw the chuck to your workbench using the mounting points on the base of the magnetic chuck. <\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Mounting-chucks-v2-700x525.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2899 size-full\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/space-line.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2489\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Top Tip<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\"><em>Using chucks for milling or grinding etc, can cause bits of ferrous materials to shatter on the floor.
