Lee Valley Adhesive-Backed Rare-Earth Magnets

With these adhesive-backed magnets, you can add a strong magnetic contact almost anywhere it’s convenient. They can be used to create tool holders, custom fridge magnets, magnetic cabinet catches, hidden key stashes and more.

Each powerful rare-earth magnet has a high-tack peel-and-stick backing that adheres to any clean, dry surface. While the magnets are remarkably strong, the direct-pull resistance of the adhesive is even stronger; a tool stuck to the magnet will release before the magnet can be pulled from the wall.

The 1/4″ diameter size uses a thin film adhesive that sticks best to smooth surfaces; the four larger sizes use a foam-backed adhesive that conforms well to slight surface irregularities.

The low-profile discs measure 0.04″ to 0.06″ thick (approximately 3/64″ to 4/64″, or about the thickness of a quarter), so they add minimal offset, and can be easily set in a shallow counterbore for flush-mount applications. We offer them in five sizes, as well as in a 52-piece set containing twenty 1/4″ magnets, 12 each of the 3/8″ and 1/2″ magnets and four each of the 5/8″ and 3/4″ magnets.
