Technical Specifications
These are ideal for making magnetic door/drawer closures. Embed one magnet in either the door/drawer and another in the frame, taking care to make sure they attract, not repel. If space is an issue, use one magnet and a countersunk washer as a 'striker plate'. Fix in place with a 2 part epoxy resin or similar adhesive.
They are also great for a range of MRO and DIY uses. If you need to use an adhesive, we recommend using something that will bind to metal and whatever surface you want to glue the magnet to.
The pull is calculated using a mathematical formula and although it takes account of the centre hole, it does NOT take account of the countersink is, therefore, the only an estimate of the theoretical maximum hold between one magnet and a mild steel plate. It does not take account of manufacturing tolerances, plating, plating thickness or variances in a mild steel plate. The vertical hold is based upon the calculated pull and is, therefore, only for guidance. Factors such as paint thickness, plasticised surfaces, movement and vibration are not taken into account.
