Rubber Coated Magnetic Latch Kit – 4 Neodymium Pot Magnets with Stainless Steel Countersunk Screws
Create a compact magnetic catch or gate hold-open system with the AMF Rubber Coated Magnetic Latch Kit. Supplied with four rubber coated Neodymium pot magnets and four stainless steel 32mm long Phillips head countersunk screws, this kit provides two magnetic latch pairs for suitable gates, doors, panels and fixtures.
Each magnet measures 34mm in diameter and 8mm in height, with a 4.5mm countersunk mounting hole for installation using the included screws. Each pot magnet has a stated 4kg pull force, delivering strong Rare Earth magnetic holding in a practical, compact assembly.
The protective rubber coating helps minimise surface marking, improve grip and shield the magnet assembly from moisture and everyday wear. Alignment markings on the magnets help position each pair correctly during installation.
This kit is identified by AMF Magnetics product code RCND34A(2PACK).
Key Features
-
Complete two-pair kit: Includes four pot magnets and four stainless steel countersunk screws.
-
Compact dimensions: Each magnet measures D34mm x H8mm.
-
4.5mm countersunk holes: Allow the supplied screw heads to sit recessed within the mounting face.
-
4kg stated pull force per magnet: Strong Neodymium magnetic performance.
-
Protective rubber coating: Helps reduce scratching, improve friction and protect against minor impacts.
-
Alignment markings: Provide a visible guide for matching the magnets during installation.
-
Versatile fixing: Suitable for industrial, workshop and DIY latch applications.
Benefits of Rubber Coating
The rubber coating creates a protective layer around the magnet assembly, helping to:
-
Protect contact surfaces: Reduce direct metal contact and the risk of scratches or marks.
-
Improve grip: Increase friction to help resist sideways movement.
-
Limit moisture exposure: Provide an additional barrier against damp conditions and corrosion.
-
Cushion minor impacts: Reduce direct impact on the brittle Neodymium magnets.
For outdoor installations, inspect the coating and fixings regularly. Keep contact faces clean, as trapped grit can mark surfaces and prevent the magnets from meeting properly.
Applications
Use this rubber coated magnetic latch kit to create paired magnetic catches for:
-
Outdoor timber gates: Hold a gate open against a suitable fixed stop post.
-
Garden and shed doors: Provide a magnetic retaining point where the mounting surfaces align.
-
Cabinet doors and access panels: Create compact magnetic closures.
-
Workshop fixtures: Retain movable panels or components.
-
DIY projects: Add a magnetic catch to suitable timber structures and custom assemblies.
For gate hold-open applications, mount one magnet to the gate and its matching magnet to a fixed post or adjacent surface. Position them so their contact faces meet squarely when the gate reaches the desired open position.
Installation Instructions
-
Choose the mounting position. Check that the two surfaces allow the magnets to meet face-to-face in the required position.
-
Secure the first magnet. Use a supplied screw to attach it to the gate, post, bracket or suitable surface, with the countersunk face pointing outwards. Ensure the screw head sits recessed.
-
Align the matching magnet. Bring the second magnet into contact and line up the marker across both magnets. Keep the markings easily visible where practical.
-
Mark and secure the opposite fixing. Transfer the matching position to the adjacent surface, separate the magnets carefully and attach the second magnet using another supplied screw.
-
Check operation. Confirm that both faces meet evenly, the alignment marks correspond and the gate or panel releases as intended. Repeat for the second pair.
Use pilot holes where appropriate for the mounting material, and avoid overtightening the screws.

Handling & Performance
The 4kg pull force applies to each individual magnet and is not a safe working load or a confirmed latch-pair holding rating. Do not add the individual ratings together to determine the kit’s holding capacity.
Actual performance depends on alignment, contact gaps, mounting strength and the direction of loading. Wind and leverage on a gate can place substantially greater force on a latch than the gate’s weight alone suggests. Test the installed arrangement under its intended operating conditions.
Handle carefully to avoid pinching fingers, and prevent the magnets from snapping together uncontrolled.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many latch pairs does the kit provide?
The four magnets form two matching pairs. Four stainless steel countersunk screws are included for mounting.
Can this kit hold a wooden gate open?
Yes, it can be used as a magnetic hold-open catch where one magnet is mounted to the gate and the other to a suitable fixed surface. Suitability depends on gate size, wind exposure, alignment and mounting strength.
Why do the magnets have alignment markings?
The markings help you position the matching magnets correctly. Align the marks across both magnets before securing the second mounting position.
Are the screws hidden when the magnets meet?
The screws sit within the countersunk mounting faces. When correctly installed, the heads are recessed so the magnet faces can meet without interference.
