This guide is for retail display professionals and DIY enthusiasts seeking strong, compact magnetic solutions. The Neodymium Clamping Magnet with M4 Eyebolt offers an impressive 9.7kg clamping force in a small form factor, ideal for Point of Sale (POS) and retail displays. However, it is not suitable for underwater use.

The magnet can support a steel weight of up to 9.7kg vertically when in flush contact with a suitable mild steel surface of equal thickness.
No, these magnets are not suitable for underwater applications due to their coating and construction.
The magnet has a diameter of 16mm and a height of 32mm.
The eyebolt has an M4 thread, and the length from the tip of the thread to the top of the eyebolt is 26mm.
Clean the magnet with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
The Neodymium magnet is recessed into a steel shell (pot), which protects it from direct impact and reduces the risk of chipping or cracking.
Yes, the eyebolt is removable and features an M4 thread, allowing for customization if needed.
Ensure the steel surface is clean, flat, and made of mild steel. Verify the magnet is in full, flush contact. Check the thickness of the steel; thicker steel generally provides better holding force. Test with a different steel object or surface.
Gently tighten the eyebolt by hand or with an appropriate tool. If it continues to loosen, consider using a thread-locking compound suitable for metal threads (ensure it doesn't interfere with magnetic function).
Minor scratches may not significantly impact magnetic strength but can affect corrosion resistance. For significant damage, consider replacing the magnet, especially if corrosion becomes apparent.
This indicates the protective coating has been compromised. Clean the affected area gently and dry thoroughly. Apply a thin layer of protective oil or wax if the magnet will be stored long-term, or consider replacement if the corrosion is severe.
Setup: The magnet comes with a pre-attached M4 eyebolt. Ensure the eyebolt is securely tightened before use. The eyebolt can be removed if a different attachment method is required, provided it is compatible with the M4 thread.
Compatibility: This magnet requires a clean, flat, mild steel surface of adequate thickness for maximum holding power. It is *not* compatible with non-ferrous materials like wood, plastic, or aluminum. The magnetic face should be in direct contact with the steel.
Care: To maintain the magnet's performance and appearance, wipe it with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. While the coating offers corrosion resistance, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or very humid environments may still degrade the finish over time. Keep away from sensitive electronic devices as strong magnets can interfere with their operation.
