Neodymium Magnetic Sheet A5 x 1mm | 3M Self Adhesive | NeoFlex® Grade R4

Description

The Neodymium Magnetic Sheet A5 x 1mm | 3M Self Adhesive | NeoFlex® Grade R4 is a high-performance flexible rare earth magnetic sheet designed for applications requiring stronger magnetic attraction than conventional flexible ferrite magnetic sheeting.

Manufactured using NeoFlex® Grade R4 neodymium magnetic material, this premium magnetic sheet combines the strength advantages of rare earth magnet technology with the versatility of a thin, flexible magnetic format. Its 1mm thickness makes it suitable for a variety of magnetic mounting, signage, display, industrial and DIY applications where a low-profile magnetic solution is preferred.

Measuring A5 size (148mm x 210mm), this magnetic sheet provides a convenient format for custom magnetic projects, allowing users to create magnetic labels, removable displays, equipment identification panels, magnetic fixtures and other specialised applications.

The sheet features a 3M self-adhesive backing, allowing it to be attached to suitable non-magnetic materials such as plastic, timber, acrylic, cardboard and other compatible substrates. Once adhered, the exposed magnetic surface can be used to attach the assembly to a suitable ferromagnetic steel surface.

Unlike conventional flexible ferrite magnetic sheets, NeoFlex® neodymium magnetic material is designed to provide enhanced magnetic performance in a flexible format.

This makes it particularly useful for applications where space is limited, magnetic strength is important or a thinner magnetic material is required.

The Grade R4 designation identifies the specific NeoFlex® magnetic material grade. It should not be confused with conventional sintered neodymium magnet grades such as N35, N42 or N52.

Also known as A5 neodymium magnetic sheeting, flexible rare earth magnetic sheet, self-adhesive neodymium magnetic sheet, NeoFlex® magnetic material, high-strength flexible magnetic sheet or 3M adhesive-backed magnetic sheeting, this product offers a practical solution for specialised magnetic mounting and display applications.

• DIY projects

The sheet may be suitable for cutting into smaller shapes using appropriate tools and techniques.

3M Self-Adhesive Backing

The 3M self-adhesive backing provides a convenient method of attaching the magnetic sheet to suitable substrates.

This allows users to create magnetic products by adhering the sheet to the back of compatible materials.

Potential substrates include:

• Plastic

• Acrylic

• Timber

• Cardboard

• Certain painted surfaces

• Other compatible non-magnetic materials

Adhesive suitability depends on the surface material, surface preparation, environmental conditions and specific 3M adhesive formulation.

Benefits of Self-Adhesive Magnetic Sheeting

How Self-Adhesive Magnetic Sheeting Works

This product combines two functional surfaces:

1. Magnetic Surface

The NeoFlex® magnetic material provides magnetic attraction to compatible ferromagnetic steel surfaces.

2. Self-Adhesive Surface

The 3M adhesive backing allows the sheet to be attached to a suitable substrate.

For example, the adhesive side can be applied to the rear of a lightweight sign or display panel, allowing the magnetic side to attach to a compatible steel surface.

This creates a removable magnetic display without requiring permanent fixing to the steel mounting surface.

Strong Flexible Magnetic Alternative

Conventional flexible magnetic sheeting is commonly manufactured using ferrite magnetic material.

NeoFlex® uses rare earth magnetic technology to provide enhanced magnetic performance in a flexible format.

Potential Advantages

• Greater magnetic attraction in certain applications

• Thin magnetic construction

• Flexible sheet format

• Suitable for compact installations

• Convenient adhesive backing

• Versatile customisation options

Actual magnetic performance depends on the material grade, sheet thickness, magnetisation pattern and target surface.
