Sewing Magnets

Sewing Magnets Info

Neodymium magnets (NdFeB) are super strong and are the strongest rare earth permanent magnets available. Our neodymium sewing magnet selection features – multiple sizes, strengths, plastic casings, etc. Sew-in magnets are perfect for a button or clasp, sewing into curtains, attaching things to clothing, backpacks and more!

What is a sewing magnet? - A sewing magnet is a magnet designed for use with clothing and fabrics and come in a matched pair (plus and minus). Sewing magnets are also known as sew-in magnets or sewable magnets. Check out our DIY blog article to learn more: Sewing Magnets.

Will magnets work through fabric? - Yes, magnets can work through fabric and many other materials, but will lose strength or pull force over a gap. A thicker fabric will result in a lower pull force for the same magnets. Make sure to get magnets strong enough for the thickness of the fabric. See our magnet pull force gap calculator to estimate how much pull force is lost over a gap.

How do you stick magnets to fabric? - Magnets stick or attach to fabric by having a magnet of the opposite polarity on the other side of the fabric. Our neodymium sewing magnets come in pairs and the plus matches up with the minus for a strong and secure connection.
