Flexible Magnet Strip ZG38A-ABX by Master Magnetics 100ft Gray 1/16″

Description

Product Overview

Master Magnetics’ ZG38A-ABX flexible magnet strip is engineered for versatility across a wide range of industrial and creative applications. This 100‑foot roll comes in a neutral gray color, measuring 1/16‑inch thick and 3/8‑inch wide, delivering a balance of strength and flexibility that allows users to cut, shape, and apply the material to virtually any flat ferrous surface. The strip features a pressure‑activated acrylic adhesive on the non‑magnetic side, which provides an initial tack for immediate placement and a permanent bond after a 24‑hour cure period. The magnetic side is a continuous, uniform layer of neodymium‑based flexible magnet, capable of holding up to 4 lb per linear foot when in direct contact with smooth steel, without any intervening material.

Usage

Designed for both professional and hobbyist environments, this flexible magnet strip excels in material handling, equipment labeling, tool organization, and temporary signage. In manufacturing plants, it can be used to create custom magnetic tool holders, safety markers, or to secure parts during assembly. In retail settings, the strip serves as a low‑cost solution for point‑of‑sale displays, allowing quick reconfiguration of product layouts. For educators and students, the magnet provides a hands‑on learning tool for physics experiments, magnetic field demonstrations, and creative classroom projects. Its temperature tolerance from –15 °F to 160 °F ensures reliable performance in refrigerated warehouses, outdoor installations, and high‑heat workshops alike.

Why Choose Us

Master Magnetics has a reputation for delivering high‑quality magnetic solutions backed by rigorous testing and industry certifications. The ZG38A-ABX roll is manufactured in a controlled environment that guarantees consistent magnetic strength across the entire length, eliminating weak spots that can compromise performance. Our adhesive backing is formulated to resist moisture, oil, and most common solvents, extending the lifespan of the bond even in harsh conditions. Each roll undergoes a final inspection for dimensional accuracy, ensuring that the 0.375‑inch thickness and 0.375‑inch width meet exact specifications. Additionally, we provide responsive technical support and a straightforward return policy, giving customers confidence in their purchase.

FAQ

Can the magnet be cut to custom lengths?

Yes, the flexible nature of the strip allows it to be cut with scissors, a utility knife, or a rotary cutter to any length you require, without compromising magnetic strength.

Is the adhesive side removable if I need to reposition the strip?

The adhesive is pressure‑activated and forms a permanent bond after the 24‑hour setting period. For short‑term repositioning within the initial tack window, you can gently lift the strip, but long‑term removal may damage the adhesive.

What types of metal surfaces are compatible with this magnet?

The magnet works best on flat, smooth ferrous steel surfaces. It can also adhere to other ferromagnetic metals such as iron and certain alloys, though holding strength may vary.

How does the magnet perform in humid or wet environments?

The acrylic adhesive is formulated to resist moisture, making the strip suitable for use in humid conditions and occasional exposure to water, though prolonged submersion is not recommended.

What is the recommended minimum length for effective magnetic pull?

For optimal performance, we recommend using a minimum length of 3 inches. Shorter sections may experience reduced magnetic force due to the limited contact area.
