These A6 sheets are great for creating POS displays and signage. To ensure that the grip remains secure, we recommend allowing between 24 to 32 hours for the adhesive to cure. The sheet can be easily cut to any desired length or size with a knife or scissors and are ideal for signage and large POS displays. Striped north-south-north polarity on the magnetic face to provide a secure grip on the magnetic face, and 3M 9448 Self-Adhesive on the non-magnetic face. Ideal for mounting electronic devices to fixing signage to vehicles and hanging pictures, NeoFlex sheets give great versatility. Each A6 sheet is 148mm x 105mm x 0.75mm thick. After your purchase, our team of experts are always available to provide you with technical advice and support with your application.
The NeoFlex Magnetic Sheet is designed for creators and businesses needing a strong, flexible, and easy-to-use magnetic solution for displays, signage, and mounting. Its key benefit is the 10x strength over standard magnetic sheets, combined with a powerful 3M self-adhesive backing. A primary consideration is the necessary curing time for the adhesive to achieve maximum grip.

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:
Prepare Surface: Ensure the surface for the 3M adhesive is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease.
Cut to Size: Use a sharp craft knife or sturdy scissors to cut the NeoFlex sheet to your required dimensions.
Apply Adhesive: Peel away the 3M™ 9448 backing and firmly press the adhesive side onto your chosen surface.
Position Magnetically: Place the magnetic side onto a compatible ferrous surface.
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.
