The FIRST4MAGNETS Adhesive N42 Black Epoxy Magnets are designed for professionals in the print, packaging, and retail display industries who need a low-profile, high-strength magnetic closure. By combining the superior pull strength of Neodymium with a convenient, pressure-sensitive adhesive backing and a sleek black epoxy finish, these magnets provide a discrete solution for holding lightweight substrates together. However, users should be aware that the adhesive requires a full 24 to 32-hour curing period to reach its maximum bond strength, meaning they are not suitable for applications requiring immediate heavy-duty load-bearing.

No, the acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive is designed for a permanent bond. Removing the magnet will likely damage the adhesive layer and the substrate.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive flows into the microscopic pores of the material surface over time. Curing ensures a maximum chemical and mechanical bond.
Neodymium magnets are very strong. Keep them away from sensitive electronics, credit cards, and magnetic storage media to avoid data corruption.
These are primarily designed for interior use. Excessive moisture or temperature fluctuations can degrade the adhesive over time.
Each 10mm x 1mm magnet provides a vertical pull strength of up to 0.58kg against mild steel.
The surface may have been oily or dusty. Clean with isopropyl alcohol, ensure it is fully dry, and allow more time for the adhesive to cure before applying load.
Ensure the application area is smooth. Porous or rough surfaces may not allow the pressure-sensitive adhesive to form a full bond. Use firmer, consistent pressure during the initial application.
To achieve the best results, start with a clean, dust-free surface. Peel off the protective backing and apply the magnet to the desired location, pressing down firmly to engage the pressure-sensitive adhesive. Do not attempt to slide or reposition the magnet once contact is made, as this can weaken the bond.
Compatibility: These magnets are highly effective when used on card, paper, plastic, and smooth wood surfaces. They are designed for interior use in retail, office, and creative environments.
Care: To keep the magnets in top condition, avoid exposure to extreme heat, which can damage both the adhesive and the magnetic properties of the Neodymium material. If the surface becomes dusty, wipe with a dry cloth; do not use heavy solvents or harsh cleaners, as these may damage the black epoxy coating or the adhesive bond.
