Heathrow Scientific MagBox Magnetic Lab Storage Box - HS23504 | Mounts to Metal Surfaces

Loose small parts, caps, stir bars, and accessories slide around on metal shelving and tumble off crowded benchtops. The Heathrow Scientific MagBox Magnetic Storage Box sticks securely to any ferrous metal surface — fume hood walls, metal shelving uprights, equipment frames, and steel cabinets — keeping small items organized and within arm's reach without consuming bench or shelf space. The compact orange polypropylene box features a snap-closure lid and built-in rare-earth magnets strong enough to hold the loaded box vertically on a steel surface. Use it as a standalone organizer or as part of the larger Heathrow MagLab magnetic storage system.

Features and Benefits

• Built-In Rare-Earth Magnets: Strong enough to hold the box vertically on any ferrous metal surface — fume hoods, shelving, equipment housings, and steel cabinets.

• Snap-Closure Lid: Keeps contents secure during mounting and transport — no accidental spills when attached vertically.

• Frees Bench Space: Mounts on vertical surfaces to keep small items accessible without consuming valuable benchtop or shelf area.

• Polypropylene Body: Chemical-resistant and easy to clean with standard lab wipes and disinfectants.

• Compatible with MagLab System: Works standalone or as part of the Heathrow MagLab magnetic lab storage set for a complete wall-mounted organization system.

Specifications

Laboratory Applications

• Fume hood organization — mount on the hood's steel walls to keep spatulas, caps, and small tools within reach during chemical handling

• Bench-side stir bar storage — keep clean stir bars ready for immediate use on the side of a magnetic stirrer or nearby metal shelving

• Equipment-adjacent accessory storage — mount on centrifuge or vortex mixer housings to keep adapters and caps at the point of use

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work on non-magnetic surfaces?
No. The magnets require a ferrous (steel/iron) surface. It will not attach to aluminum, wood, plastic, or stainless-steel alloys with low magnetic permeability (e.g., 304 stainless).

How strong is the magnetic hold?
The rare-earth magnets provide enough force to hold the box with small items inside while mounted vertically. Avoid overloading with heavy objects — the box is designed for lightweight lab accessories.

Can I autoclave the MagBox?
Do not autoclave. The rare-earth magnets can be damaged by high temperatures. Clean with damp wipes and standard lab disinfectants instead.

Quality Assurance

Heathrow Scientific MagBox products are assembled with high-strength rare-earth magnets and inspected for magnetic hold force, lid-snap integrity, and dimensional consistency.
