Those are absolutely trash… nothing like sticking to a manifold while trying to retrieve a dropped nut and having it bend for no apparent reason… literally the pull of the magnet case cause it to bend… once bent you have about 6 seconds until the thin metal snaps.
I lob
Be the freight for all kinds of stuff, I'm an ITC member too but those telescoping magnets are crap. I use to buy a few at a time e when on sale.
I had a tekton for years but it finally got caught up in something and bent- at that time they didn't make those any longer. Limped along with it taped up until I got this craftsman.
I haven't bought craftsman in over a decade but I have to admit this is a really nice tool.
I actually got it with a mirror and pick up tool in Dec 2024 for $10 (CMMT98276) Good set

1. This is a link to the VERY trustworthy Project Farm Youtube evaluation of magnetic pickup tools: https://youtu.be/mDKVGxuyGAs?si=
2. This is a link to the Enbar magnetic pickup tool. FOR ME, at $7.98, it represents the best value for dollar looking at the chart the Project Farm shows at minute 13:11 in the video. It's not the absolute best, but for my needs, that's the one. (you can get 2 for only $12.98, which makes it $6.49 a piece and give one to a friend.((3 for $16 and 4 for $19 if you have a bunch of friends) Link: https://a.co/d/6vkYgJ5
3. I also found this set of 4 magnetic pickup tools on amazon for only $9.50. They seem to have decent reviews and I think this particular set at least is worth a look: https://a.co/d/afPGb44
4. Lastly, for fun, this 3 piece set, for a bit more, at least CLAIMS, to have 30 lb, 40lb and 80 lb lift weight. I don't believe it. But, I respect the audacity. Link: https://a.co/d/h5o0kgR
(tip: the tips seems to fall off over time so apply LocTite Blue to keep them on)
5. If you got this far, well, it's your fault! lol GOOD LUCK!! (I'm 50 but still think magnets are magic so I enjoy researching advancements in magnetic stuff)
