Magnetic Button Stitchable – D20mm | ONE PAIR
Description
Create convenient, discreet and reusable magnetic closures with these 20mm Diameter Stitchable Magnetic Buttons, supplied as one matching pair. Designed for sewing, garment making, bag construction and textile applications, these round magnetic fasteners provide a practical alternative to traditional buttons, press studs, hooks and other mechanical closures.
Each magnetic button has a 20mm diameter, offering a larger circular fastening area than the 10mm and 15mm versions. This makes them particularly useful for handbags, fabric accessories, garment flaps and other textile projects where a larger magnetic closure is preferred.
The two mating magnetic components attract when correctly aligned, allowing suitable fabric openings, flaps and accessories to be fastened and released without the need for a conventional buttonhole.
These sewable magnetic buttons can be incorporated into fabric products to create neat, functional closures. Depending on the design and construction, the fasteners may be positioned discreetly within the fabric assembly or used as part of a visible fastening arrangement.
Ideal for handbags, tote bags, purses, wallets, clothing, jackets, fabric pouches, costume making, upholstery accessories and DIY sewing projects, these magnetic buttons offer a versatile fastening solution for both personal and professional textile applications.
The 20mm diameter provides a practical option for projects where smaller magnetic buttons may not offer the preferred fastening area. Actual holding strength will depend on the magnetic material, component construction, fabric thickness and installation method.
Supplied as one pair, these stitchable magnetic fasteners are suitable for sewing enthusiasts, fashion designers, bag makers, textile manufacturers, craft businesses and repair services.
Also known as 20mm sewable magnetic buttons, stitchable magnetic fasteners, magnetic bag closures, sew-in magnetic snaps, round magnetic sewing buttons, magnetic handbag clasps or magnetic fabric fasteners, these components are designed for convenient magnetic fastening in suitable textile products.

20mm Round Magnetic Closure for Larger Fabric Projects
The 20mm diameter provides a larger circular fastening component than smaller 10mm and 15mm stitchable magnetic buttons.
This makes the product a useful option for applications where a larger closure is preferred, including:
-
Handbag flaps
-
Tote bag openings
-
Fabric organisers
-
Jacket panels
-
Larger pouches
-
Custom textile accessories
The increased diameter may make positioning and alignment easier in some fabric constructions.
However, a larger diameter does not automatically guarantee a higher magnetic pull force. Magnetic strength depends on the internal magnetic material, construction and operating conditions.
The thickness and rated pull force of this product have not been specified.
Stitchable Magnetic Fasteners for Sewing Projects
Stitchable magnetic buttons allow magnetic fastening to be incorporated into suitable fabric products.
Unlike traditional buttons, which generally require a buttonhole, magnetic fasteners use attraction between two mating components to create a closure.
This makes them useful for projects where convenient fastening and a clean appearance are important.
Potential advantages include:
-
Easy alignment of mating components
-
Convenient opening and closing
-
No conventional buttonhole required
-
Suitability for concealed fastening designs
-
Reusable magnetic closure
-
Integration into handmade textile products
Each component should be securely stitched into the intended fabric assembly using the stitchable construction provided.
Ideal for Handbags, Tote Bags and Purses
Magnetic closures are commonly used in handbag and accessory construction because they provide a convenient way to secure fabric openings.
These 20mm stitchable magnetic buttons may be suitable for:
-
Handbag flaps
-
Tote bag closures
-
Fabric purse openings
-
Clutch bags
-
Wallet compartments
-
Handmade pouches
-
Custom bag accessories
The larger 20mm diameter makes them an option for bag-making projects where a more substantial fastening component is preferred.
When selecting a magnetic closure, consider the weight of the contents, fabric thickness, movement during use and the risk of accidental opening.
For bags carrying heavier contents or valuable items, an additional mechanical closure may be appropriate.
Magnetic Buttons for Clothing and Garments
These sewable magnetic fasteners can also be incorporated into suitable garments and fabric accessories.
Potential uses include:
-
Jacket flaps
-
Coat panels
-
Clothing accessories
-
Costume closures
-
Decorative garment details
-
Custom textile products
-
Garment alterations
Magnetic closures may be useful where a conventional button or snap fastener is not preferred.
Before installation, ensure the closure provides sufficient holding performance and does not interfere with the garment's intended fit, movement or care requirements.
Discreet and Concealed Magnetic Fastening
Depending on the fabric design and construction, stitchable magnetic buttons may be incorporated into concealed fastening arrangements.
This allows the closure to function without requiring a prominent external button.
Concealed magnetic fastening may be useful for:
-
Minimalist handbag designs
-
Fabric pouches
-
Clothing flaps
-
Decorative accessories
-
Custom textile products
When installing magnetic buttons beneath fabric layers, remember that additional material between the mating components can reduce magnetic attraction.
For best performance, minimise unnecessary separation between the magnetic faces.
Alternative to Traditional Buttons and Snap Fasteners
Magnetic buttons provide a different fastening method from conventional mechanical closures.
Traditional buttons require a corresponding buttonhole or loop, while snap fasteners use a mechanical engagement system.
Magnetic buttons rely on attraction between mating magnetic components.
This can provide convenient fastening for suitable fabric products.
However, magnetic fasteners are not appropriate for every application. Products requiring high resistance to pulling, twisting, vibration or accidental opening may need additional mechanical fastening.
Supplied as One Pair
This product is supplied as one pair of 20mm round stitchable magnetic buttons.
Each pair contains two mating fastening components designed to form one magnetic closure.
One pair may be used for:
-
A single handbag closure
-
One tote bag fastening point
-
A purse opening
-
A garment flap
-
A fabric pouch
-
A textile repair
-
A product prototype
For projects requiring multiple closure points, additional pairs may be needed.
Sewing and Installation Guide
Correct positioning and secure attachment are important for effective magnetic fastening.
General Installation Steps
-
Identify the two fabric sections that require fastening.
-
Determine the most suitable location for each magnetic component.
-
Position the mating components so their magnetic faces attract correctly.
-
Check that both components align when the fabric is closed.
-
Secure each component using its stitchable construction.
-
Reinforce the surrounding fabric if necessary.
-
Test the magnetic closure before completing the project.
Installation Tips
-
Ensure both components are correctly aligned.
-
Avoid excessive fabric thickness between magnetic faces.
-
Reinforce delicate or lightweight fabrics where required.
-
Test the closure under realistic conditions.
-
Avoid placing excessive tension on the stitching.
-
Do not puncture or modify the magnetic element itself.
Important: The exact stitchable casing, sewing margin and construction have not been specified. Follow the physical product's intended sewing arrangement.
Magnetic Holding Performance
The holding performance of a 20mm stitchable magnetic button depends on several factors, including:
-
Magnetic material
-
Internal magnet dimensions
-
Magnetic pole alignment
-
Fabric thickness
-
Number of fabric layers
-
Distance between mating components
-
Installation method
-
Load direction
-
Movement and vibration
Magnetic attraction generally decreases as the separation between the mating components increases.
For best results, position the components so they align correctly and minimise unnecessary gaps.
No specific pull force has been supplied for this product.
