Thin shim magnets

Postby mac » Nov 3rd, '12, 09:08



Hi, i use the magnetic locking £2+2p. The magnet is a steel shim type (very thin) but has lost its magnetism. Does any one know where replacements can be bought?

Many thanks

I am not familiar with the item that you mention but do wonder if a small neo magnet might be suitable? It is possible to find some remarkably small and thin magents if you were to do a search for neo magnets.

You can get circular neodymium magnets as thin as 0.5mm in various diameters from lots of online suppliers.
