Magnetic clamp

A magnetic clamp was a piece of technology used to magnetically adhere non-magnetic objects to a metallic surface. The boots of Darth Vader's armor featured magnetic clamps, which were utilized during his raid on Cylo's research base, when he breached a section of its hull, blowing the surrounding crew out into the vacuum of space.
