Product description

Magnetic mount with M3 screw hole in the centre. The mount consists of a neodymium magnet and a steel cylinder concentrating all the magnetic force into a small space on one side of the magnet. Thanks to this, the mount can hold even very heavy objects and is suitable as both a vertical and horizontal holder. Since all the magnetism is concentrated on the surface of the active side of the mount, the force drops off sharply with distance and the mounts have almost no effect on more distant objects. The back of the mount is not magnetic.

Under ideal conditions, a 12×5 mount can hold appr. 2.4 kg of steel if it is at least 5 mm thick, it touches the mount with its entire surface and hangs on it (i.e. the mount points the active side vertically downwards and pulls the steel object upwards).). It takes much less force to slide a metal object off a mount than to pull it off. If the mount fixed to the wall (not the ceiling) and objects are placed on it from the side, it can hold 1.2 kg.

All mounts have the north pole on the active side (thus they repel each other).
