The 10-second magnet test

1
Grab any magnet from your fridge, kitchen, or toolbox.
2
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 56 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

Use it for: Anchor your Fiamma awning legs to the side of your van, with no drilling, no stakes and no guy lines.

What it fits: Fiamma F35, F45, F65 and F80, on steel side panels. 56 kg pull per magnet, sold as a pair. Not for aluminium panels.

Shipping: Ships within 48 h. Free shipping from CHF150, £150, €250 or $279.

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

FAQ

Which Fiamma awnings does this support fit?

Fiamma F35, F45, F65 and F80. The awning leg drops straight into the nylon foot, with nothing to modify on the awning.

Will it hold on my van?

It holds on steel panels, which covers most vans. It does not hold on aluminium. Mount it on a flat, clean area, because curved or ribbed areas, thick wraps and dirt reduce the hold.

Do I need to drill or use ground stakes?

No. The magnetic base anchors the awning leg to the side of your van, with no drilling, no stakes and no guy lines. It goes on and comes off in seconds.

How strong is the magnet?

Each magnet gives 56 kg of vertical pull on standard steel and 17 kg of lateral hold. The magnets are marine-grade neodymium, fully encapsulated.

What is in the box?

A pair: two magnetic feet, one encapsulated magnet per foot, with UV-stable nylon feet and stainless steel hardware.

What about shipping and warranty?

Orders leave our Swiss facility within 48 working hours. EU VAT and duties are included. The warranty is 2 years worldwide, and every part is available separately.

Quick questions

How do I know it will hold on my van?

Put a fridge magnet where the foot will sit. If you have to pull to get it off, the mount holds. If it slides or drops, the panel is aluminium.

These magnetic awning leg mounts are so good ! I still have to do a few trips to test them long term, but so far so good. With my van build the area where I would normally bolt on the awning leg mounts were not ideal and I could not get behind the van wall to reinforce the any bolt. As well where I was able to put the awning leg mounts was not even both sides, so a permanent mount would look odd. The magnetic mounts let me choose an exact place for each awning leg that I would not easily have bolted a mount. They are super strong !

These magnetic arm supports are exactly what I needed for the Fiamma awning fitted to my LDV Maxus D9 van. Cleverly and neatly designed they have solved a problem with arm support to the side of the van. Thank you, Mike, Tasmania, Australia.

Absolutely fantastic product. Loved the easy and straightforward installation. Just clean the surface of your van, measure and attach. Legs of Fiamma awning fit snug and even with a moderate breeze, the magnets did not move at all. Took around 3 weeks for delivery to Australia, but this was during the Christmas season. I had to laugh during the installation process, as I accidentally put the magnet on the ground down and our iron rich soil and little pebbles immediately attached to it 😂. I highly recommend this product. With many Thankx Andrea

Ho acquistato i supporti magnetici per il tendalino fiamma, davvero un ottimo prodotto, ero indeciso se montare i supporti originali o prendere questi, il pensiero di bucare la carrozzeria però non mi convinceva, alla fine ho optato per questi, davvero un ottima scelta, una volta attaccati e inseriti i piedi del tendalino il gioco é fatto. Il tendalino non si muove per niente, i piedini non hanno giochi e quindi non sbattono o fanno rumore, li ho provati in una giornata abbastanza ventosa, non hanno avuto problemi. Noi di parto_incamper consigliamo sicuramente questo prodotto
