Applications of magnets

With a magnet, you can attach, close or hang something up without drilling or screwing, and just as easily take it down again. That is why our magnets are used in machines and warehouses, in furniture and products, and in many hobby projects. Below you will find practical examples for each field and the magnet that is right for the job.

Which magnet is right for your application?

First, choose how you want to attach the magnet: gluing or building in (disc- or block magnets), screwing in (magnet with screw hole), hanging (magnet with hook) or sticking on (self-adhesive magnets and magnetic tape). Then choose the size based on the weight. Need help? The Magnet Advisor calculates it for you, and in the knowledge centre you will find information about holding force, coatings and safe use.
