From the wild

View this post on Instagram

The original. Invented here.

Tactic Engineering invented the magnetic vehicle mount. Designed and prototyped in Switzerland, stress-tested on the road, first units shipped in December 2021. Every magnetic mount on the market today came after ours.

We did the prototyping, the failures, the magnet research, and the on-the-road validation. Today we ship through the most respected names in the van and overlanding industry.

FAQ

How many packs does one kit hold?

The 1-mount kit holds 1 RotoPax 2-gallon pack, the 2-mount kit holds 2. Each kit ships with RotoPax-compatible mounting hardware and an anti-slip rubber pad.

Will it hold on my vehicle?

The magnet needs steel underneath. It holds on steel panels and does not hold on aluminium. Not sure? Put a fridge magnet on the spot first: if it sticks firmly, the mount holds.

How fast does it ship, and is shipping free?

Orders leave our Swiss facility within 48 working hours. Shipping is free from CHF 150 in Switzerland and £150 in the UK, and from €250 in the EU and $279 in the US.
