Magnet for SEIO 2600?

randyorr · 08/17/2007, 11:10 AM

I have two of these very large powerheads and the suction cup brackets slide down. I want to get a magnet for them, but the Sure Grip 100 only goes up to the 1500 model. Anyone have any ideas on a magnet for these big suckers? They must weigh 5 lbs each. They move water for sure!

Nobody?

What about just epoxying it to a magfloat? I did that with my 620 and 820. works fairly well

There are several vendors of rare-earth magnets out there, do am internet search since I haven't got access to the site that I got mine from. They charge less than what you'll pay for a mag or any of the ones designed for aquarium use.

I tried the magfloat...2600 is way too heavy.

This is the place that sells the magnets I got. They are much smaller and better looking than using a mag float:
