ABSTRACT:
A magnetic tool retaining device for supporting wrench sockets or other ferrous tools on an upright mounting board or other surface is disclosed. The device includes a holder having a front mounting surface and rear attachment surface. A mounting post projecting outwardly from the front mounting surface includes resilient threadlike ridges for engaging and mounting a disc magnet on the front surface. The magnet has a magnetic mounting surface projecting outwardly from the holder. A lower lip projecting outwardly from the holder, beyond the magnetic face, prevents the wrench sockets from slipping off the face. Two projections project outwardly from the rear attachment surface and are dimensioned and spaced apart to engage corresponding holes in a mounting board. With the projections removed a screw received in a central opening of the mounting post can also be used to attach the device to a solid surface.
