Product Information

Full details

These large orange skittle magnets are perfect for anyone needing to securely display papers, photos, or notices on magnetic surfaces like fridges, whiteboards, or filing cabinets. Their unique design makes them easy to handle, and the powerful Neodymium magnets offer surprisingly strong holding power for their size, capable of holding up to 14 sheets of A4 paper. While they offer excellent functionality and aesthetic appeal, their small size might be a limiting factor for very heavy items.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What makes these magnets 'super strong'?

They are made with small Neodymium magnets, which are among the strongest types of permanent magnets commercially available, providing a powerful hold relative to their size.

How many sheets of A4 paper can one magnet hold?

Each magnet can hold up to 14 sheets of standard A4 paper firmly against a suitable metal surface.

What surfaces can I use these magnets on?

They work best on standard fridges, whiteboards, filing cabinets, lockers, and other ferromagnetic (magnetic) surfaces.

Are these magnets suitable for children?

While designed with a fun appearance, they contain small, powerful magnets. They should be kept out of reach of very young children who might put them in their mouths, as small magnets can be a choking hazard and dangerous if swallowed.

Can I buy these magnets in other colors?

Yes, FIRST4MAGNETS offers skittle magnets in various colors and sizes, including blue, yellow, and assorted multi-color packs.

What are the dimensions of each magnet?

Each skittle magnet measures approximately 19mm in diameter and 30mm in height.

How should I clean the magnets?

Wipe them gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Magnets not holding papers securely

Ensure the surface is magnetic and clean. The number of papers may exceed the magnet's capacity (14 A4 sheets). Try using more magnets or fewer sheets of paper.

Magnets have lost their magnetism

Neodymium magnets are very strong but can weaken over time or if exposed to extreme heat. Ensure they haven't been overheated or stored improperly. For most typical uses, this is unlikely.

Plastic casing is scratched or damaged

Avoid using harsh cleaning agents. Clean gently with a damp cloth. Minor scratches may not affect magnetic performance but can impact appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These magnets require no setup. Simply take them out of their packaging and apply them directly to any ferromagnetic (magnetic) surface.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with all standard fridges, whiteboards, filing cabinets, lockers, and any other metal surface that attracts magnets.
  • Not suitable for use on glass whiteboards that do not have a metal backing, or non-magnetic surfaces.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the plastic casing and the magnet.
