The 10-second magnet test

Grab any magnet from your fridge, kitchen, or toolbox.

Place it on the body panel where you'd mount the product — roof, side panel, or rear door.

If it sticks firmly, you're good. Our 55 kg-force magnets will hold with no issues. If it slides or barely holds, your panel may be aluminum or composite — contact us and we'll find a solution.

Magnetic Awning Support — Fiamma F35 / F45 / F65 / F80

Drop the leg into the nylon foot. The magnetic base anchors it to the side of your van. No drilling, no stakes, no guy lines. Mounted in seconds.

Made in SwitzerlandFiamma F35 · F45 · F65 · F8056 kg pull per magnetSold as a pair

Anchor the awning. Not the ground.

An awning that is not anchored moves. The legs wander. The fabric flexes in the wind. The ground is the usual answer, and it rarely cooperates — gravel, rock and tarmac do not take a stake. So you fix it to the van. Three ways exist. One without a catch.

Option

Ground stakes

Need soft ground. Gravel, rock and tarmac say no. Slow where you actually park.

Option

Drilled bracket

Holes in the panel. Water in. Rust after. Resale value down. Permanent.

Option

Vacuum mount

Re-pump every 2–3 hours. Worse when the panel is hot. The panel is hot when you want shade.

This mount

Tactic magnet

56 kg pull per magnet. No holes. No pump. Move the van, it comes with it.

Will it hold on your van? Read this before ordering.

The rule: the magnet needs steel underneath. Most van side panels are steel. Some are not, and a few vans mix the two — steel body, aluminium doors.

Ten-second test

Put a fridge magnet on the panel where the foot will sit. If you have to pull to get it off, this mount holds. If it slides or drops, that panel is aluminium and no magnet will work on it.

Holds

Steel side panels — this is most vans Flat, clean, bare-painted steel

Does not hold

Aluminium panels — no magnet holds on aluminium Curved or ribbed areas — any air gap costs hold force Thick wrap, or dirt between magnet and steel
