FLEXIBLE
Ferrite or Rare Earth powders and binder systems such as rubber or plastic are used to form a flexible magnet compound. The easy manipulation of flexible magnets permits design innovations and automated manufacturing techniques not possible with rigid or brittle materials. Flexible magnet materials can be bent, twisted, coiled, slit, punched, and otherwise machined into almost any shape without loss of magnetic energy. Ferrite-based flexible magnets are available from 0.6-1.8 MGOe, while those with Rare Earth-based materials can reach 6 MGOe. Grading varies by composition.

1. MAGNET STRIP
STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY
Thickness typically drives the strength of flexible magnets, but maximum surface area adhesion also allows extra holding power and sheer strength. Shubo magnetics standard energy magnetic strip generally holds a minimum of one pound per square inch of (.060” thick) magnet, and will adhere and remain flexible at temperatures from -15°F to as high as 160°F. Our high energy strip will hold even more. And our flexible strip magnet resists demagnetization and will not chip, crack or shatter when cut, drilled or flexed.
Shubo Magnetics can create flexible magnets in custom widths, thicknesses and lengths. Our flexible magnet is available either plain or with a range of adhesive options including foam, rubber, acrylic, and double-faced. We also offer cutting, scoring, die cutting, and custom magnetization.
We offer several options for strip and sheet orders. Just to name a few:
• Selection of paper, vinyl, and polypropylene laminates to fit your printing needs
• Rubber (Indoor and Outdoor), acrylic and foam adhesives
• Lamination on both sides
• Magnetization on both sides
• Not magnetized
• Custom magnetization such as matched pole
• Custom pole spacing
• Scored strip rolls from 0.25” X 0.25” on rolls up to 1500’
• Custom packaging

2.SHEET
Shubo Magnetics sheet uses multi-pole magnetization pattern for maximum holding power of up to 144 pounds per square foot. Standard grade materials are significantly stronger on one side and can have adhesives and vinyl applied to the weak side. Double magnetization is available by custom order, which will give both sides similar pull strength.
We can die cut magnet sheet to virtually any shape you can imagine, in thicknesses ranging from .010 (.17 mm) to .060” (1.52 mm). Plain magnet, sheet with adhesive, or colored vinyl may be applied prior to die-cutting. We also offer paper laminates.
Our adhesives normally require 12 to 24 hours to meet maximum bond strength. The hold in place tack is immediate, but full hold strength requires chemical cure time, like with most other adhesives.
A high-quality back coating protects from blocking, providing anti-stick and weatherproof performance.
Shubo Magnetics provides printing surface lamination in white matte, waterproof PVC (polyvinyl chloride). It is strongly recommended to test the material with your printer and ink system. The material is suitable for:
• Digital inkjet printing
• Solvent, UV Cured Screen Printing
• Solvent ink
• Eco-solvent
• UV curable ink
