FAQs

What is the main advantage of NeoFlex sheets?

The primary advantage is their exceptional strength, being 10x stronger than standard magnetic sheets, combined with the flexibility of rubber and a strong 3M self-adhesive backing.

How long does the 3M adhesive take to fully cure?

The adhesive requires between 24 to 32 hours to achieve its maximum bond strength.

Can I cut the NeoFlex sheets to custom sizes?

Yes, the sheets can be easily cut to any desired length or size using a knife or scissors.

What is the polarity of the magnetic face?

The magnetic face has a striped north-south-north polarity to ensure a secure grip.

What are the dimensions of one A6 sheet?

Each A6 sheet measures 148mm x 105mm x 0.75mm thick.

Can I use these sheets on any surface?

The magnetic side adheres to ferrous metals. The 3M adhesive will stick to most clean, smooth, non-porous surfaces. Always test on an inconspicuous area first if unsure.

Is technical support available for my application?

Yes, B&Q's team of experts is available to provide technical advice and support for your specific application after purchase.

Troubleshooting

Adhesive not sticking firmly

Ensure the application surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before applying the adhesive. Re-apply pressure and allow the full curing time (24-32 hours) without disturbance.

Magnetic grip is weak

Verify that the target surface is made of a suitable ferrous metal. Check for any debris or coatings on the magnetic face or the receiving surface that might interfere with the magnetic field.

Sheet does not lay flat

This can sometimes occur due to temperature changes or if the sheet was tightly rolled. Allow the sheet to acclimate to room temperature for a few hours. If the issue persists, try gently bending it in the opposite direction of the curl.

Difficulty cutting the sheet

Use a very sharp craft knife or heavy-duty scissors. For thicker cuts, multiple passes with a knife may be required. Ensure you are cutting on a protected surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional magnetic strength for secure attachment.
  • Durable and flexible material.
  • Strong and reliable 3M adhesive.
  • Easy to cut and customize for specific needs.
  • Versatile for a wide range of applications.

Cons

  • Requires a significant curing time (24-32 hours) for full adhesive strength.
  • Neodymium magnets can be brittle if mishandled.
  • A6 size might be too small for very large projects without combining multiple sheets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Prepare Surface: Ensure the surface for the 3M adhesive is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease.
  2. Cut to Size: Use a sharp craft knife or sturdy scissors to cut the NeoFlex sheet to your required dimensions.
  3. Apply Adhesive: Peel away the 3M™ 9448 backing and firmly press the adhesive side onto your chosen surface.
  4. Position Magnetically: Place the magnetic side onto a compatible ferrous surface.
  5. Cure Adhesive: Allow the adhesive to cure for 24 to 32 hours without significant stress or movement for maximum bond strength.

Compatibility:

  • The magnetic face is designed to adhere to ferrous metals (iron, nickel, cobalt).
  • The 3M™ 9448 adhesive is suitable for a wide range of clean, smooth surfaces including painted metal, glass, plastic, and finished wood.

Care:

  • Wipe the magnetic surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust.
  • If cleaning is necessary, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
