The flexible magnet strip roll is magnetic on one side and can be easily repositioned on flat or slightly curved steel surfaces. The strip has a small groove to identify the non-magnetic side. Strength rating is 9 pounds of pull per linear foot. The strip withstands temperatures from -15 to 160 degrees F and can be cut with scissors.
Flexible magnets can be easily cut and shaped for a range of applications. They are produced by mixing powdered iron or ferrite with a rubber or plastic binder, and then extruding or rolling into the desired shape. Flexible magnets can have adhesive backing and be laminated with a printable vinyl coating. Flexible magnets are typically magnetized with multiple poles on one surface to generate a stronger holding force. High-energy flexible magnets can sometimes be used in place of ceramic materials if tight tolerances are not required. The application temperature range is determined by binder material properties.
