'''Grapple Points''' are objects that can be latched onto with the [[Grapple Beam]]. In Super Metroid, their first appearance, these points are metallic blocks.<ref>{{cite manual|You can shoot the Grappling Beam into metallic blocks with holes in the center.|Super Metroid|21}}</ref> While most are permanent structures, some temporarily disappear after shortly after use. In the [[Metroid Prime (series)|''Metroid Prime'' series]] and in ''[[Metroid: Other M]]'', Grapple Points are nodes commonly found embedded in objects or floating in the air. These nodes possess magnetic properties that allow the Grapple Beam to attach to them. [[Glider]]s share this magnetic charge, allowing a Grapple Beam to attach to them.<ref>{{cite|The Glider is a docile, airborne creature with unusual magnetic properties.
