240 Pack Small Rare Earth Neodymium Magnets - 5x2mm Refrigerator Magnets for Crafts, Whiteboard, Kitchen Cabinet

This is the second size Ihave gotten, They are strong but I would say go a size bigger than you think you need. They are still so tiny and nearly impossible to handle without dropping so work over a towel or tray. These have enough strength to hold together two heavy pieces of cotton watercolor paper for a paper doll project, yet the profile is still low enough that it doesn't intrude on the art. The magnets do have to match up exactly, there is no perimeter magnetic pull like with larger magnets. The included storage container is also a plus.

5mm is definitely tiny, but it's the perfect size for my project. Picture is to show the size comparison to a silicone magnetic holder I use for x-stitch. My fingers are small (size 4.5 ring size) but thought I'd include photo to show how tiny and cuteness of the product. Magnet is strong for being so small.

I bought these magnets because a lot of the reviews have said the magnets are strong. So either the magnets I received are defective or maybe my expectations were too high. The magnets arrived stacked together, and yes they do feel very strong when they were stacked together like that. I struggled a bit to slide and separate them. But an individual magnet by itself was weak. I purchased the 10mm x 1mm magnets. I tested 1magnet (by itself, not glued to anything) and it was enough to hold 1 sheet of paper (8.5"x11") to the fridge but felt flimsy. When I moved or re-adjusted the paper, the magnet fell off the fridge leaving me searching the ground for the lost magnet. I had to be really careful when re-adjusting. And when I tried 1 magnet on 2 sheets of paper, the papers and magnet slid all the way down the fridge. Anyway, I bought these magnets for acrylic charms/keychains that I've collected at conventions. Instead of leaving the acrylic charms collecting dust in a drawer, I decided to convert them into refrigerator magnets. Gluing 3 magnets onto a 2.5 inch acrylic charm was enough to prevent 1 sheet of paper from sliding. I glued 4-5 magnets just to be safe. I guess I should have bought bigger thicker magnets for my project. Although to be fair, for reference I looked to souvenir magnets (that I've gotten at gift shops) which uses 6mm magnets and are very strong. I also have 6mm ceramic magnets that are very strong too but prone to leaving behind residue and dust. Hence I thought these 10mm magnets would suffice for my project.

First Impressions & Packaging Opening the package, I was impressed by the sheer quantity—400 magnets is a lot, even at a modest 6x2mm size. The magnets arrived in neat, well-organized stacks. Each column was shrink-wrapped to keep them protected and prevent them from snapping together too forcefully during transit. Build Quality & Strength Size & Shape: These neodymium magnets are tiny, but that also makes them incredibly versatile. The 6x2mm dimensions are perfect for discreet applications, from small crafts to minimalist whiteboard setups. Magnetic Force: Don’t be fooled by their small stature; they’re impressively strong. A single magnet can hold multiple sheets of paper on my fridge. When stacked, their holding power increases significantly, easily securing heavier items like lightweight kitchen utensils. Consistency: All 400 pieces were uniform in thickness and diameter, meaning no surprises when I used them for precision projects. Versatility & Uses Fridge & Whiteboard: Perfect for hanging grocery lists, photos, or quick notes without adding bulk. Crafts & DIY: Their slim profile makes them ideal for embedding into homemade refrigerator magnets or attaching to small decorative pieces. Kitchen & Cabinets: I’ve used a couple to hold measuring spoons inside cabinet doors—works like a charm. Office Organization: Great for pinning up memos on magnetic boards or even corralling paper clips and other small metal items on the side of a filing cabinet. Handling Tips Careful Separation: To avoid chipping or pinching, slide one magnet off the stack rather than trying to pull it straight up. Storage & Safety: Keep these away from children and pets; they’re small enough to be a choking hazard and potentially dangerous if swallowed. Gentle Placement: Neodymium magnets are brittle. If they snap together hard, they can chip or crack. Pros Strong Hold for such a small footprint. Large Quantity – 400 magnets ensure you won’t run out anytime soon. Multipurpose – Suitable for a variety of applications, from crafts to home/office organization. Uniform Quality – No noticeable defects or size inconsistencies. Cons Fragile – Like most neodymium magnets, they can chip or break if handled roughly. Tiny Size – Fantastic for some projects, but easy to misplace or lose if you’re not careful. Final Thoughts These 6x2mm Rare Earth Neodymium magnets are a powerhouse in a petite package. Whether you’re looking to elevate your crafting projects or just need a reliable way to stick notes and photos to a fridge or whiteboard, this 400-pack has you covered. The hold is surprisingly strong, and the bulk quantity means you can tackle plenty of projects without worrying about running out. Highly recommended for anyone needing a versatile set of strong, discreet magnets—and who’s ready to handle them with care!
