0kg - 0.5kg

Magnets with 0.5kg pull force or less can be of any shape including Rings, Blocks, Discs and Cylinders and all these magnets are usually less than 30mm in diameter. Small disc magnets are a popular shape for a range of commercial applications because their low height dimension allows them to be positioned inside narrow or confined spaces. Small Neodymium magnets are ideal for electronic consumer goods where they are valued for their enormous strength and compact size, while small Ferrite/Ceramic magnets are popular with hobbyists and DIY enthusiasts because of their affordable price point and anti-corrosive properties.

Small magnets are ideal for lightweight or delicate holding applications.

If your hobby or passion requires the use of delicate metal utensils or metal fasteners, you'll find magnets can really make a difference to the way you work and how you organise your work area. Small magnets are excellent for gathering and storing the metal pins, needles and paper clips required for your work or hobby which can sometimes be difficult to locate and access when you need them. Needlework, dressmaking and haberdashery projects are examples of the type of work that can benefit from the use of small magnets to keep metal accessories in order. Organise your metal leatherwork tools and supplies with small magnets glued to your workshop wall or toolbox. For those who like to design and make their own fashion items, AMF has sew-able magnets that offer a clever magnetic alternative to common fasteners and clasps. Find these plastic enclosed stitch-able magnets and a range of other popular DIY magnetic products in the AMF Hobby and Craft magnet category.

Find the most appropriate magnet for your artistic creation or DIY project.

Different types of small magnets have properties that are more suited to certain applications. Small magnets with low or moderate holding strength can bond with metal or steel surfaces with little impact to paints or coatings on the metal surface. For instance, small Ceramic type magnets have mild adhesive strength but are extremely resistant to corrosion and are therefore ideal for outdoor use. Conversely, small Neodymium magnets made from rare earth elements are both strong and relatively inexpensive considering how effective they are, but are not suitable for high-temperature environments (>80℃) or long term exposure to the elements. Remember to include Flexible Magnets when considering the right type of low strength magnet for your particular needs. Flexible magnets can be extremely appropriate for certain types of applications where curved metal surfaces are involved.
