Would these be a recommendable size to hold a file folder holder to an appliance (washer/dryer or refrigerator)? And what type of glue for magnet to plastic, or could you place 1 magnet on each side of the back to adhere to each other, then to the...

Yeah, that's all preference, but I can tell you the are strong enough to hold up a folder holder... How much you can put in there is for you to find out :)

The magnets are really strong. I think they will pull off the glue. You can try stronger glue, but even then I think it's a matter of time before they pull apart. It may also depend on the size of the magnet. The larger the magnet the stronger they are. The tiniest magnets may not separate from the glue.

Julian, your question is vague. you could use them in a variety of ways. as long as you don't mind dealing with strong magnets that are very difficult to grip because of their size. I would imagine that if you wanted to sandwich two of them around a given point on a t-shirt you could probably hang your shirt in a steel locker from them. I just don't know what exactly you want to do with them on your shirt.

You can use the large one for file cabinets BUT...unfortunately the clasps on the file boxes is very cheaply made.

If you want to get the best performance then use the screws. If you use double sided tape, magnets probably won't be held properly and your cabinet won't be secure at all.

Sorry it took so long to answer. No metallic items will not adhere magnetically. It requires magnetic properties for whatever you want to adhere to the board. Not sure what you are attempting to do. If it is a storage type usage then search amazon for "magnetic parts tray" or use this link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/s/ref=is_s_ss_i_0_14?.k=magnetic+parts+tray&sprefix;=magnetic+partsThose have a magnetic base and should adhere to the board and then create a dish that will hold any magnetic items. Also the magnetic bond is really not super duper strong. Kinda meant to hold papers and lightweight materials. When I use my marker cups on mine I place the base resting on the frame of the board so they cannot slide down. Hope this helps. Sorry it took so long to answer.

Sorry, I tried using it to hold lightweight shutters in place. The magnet itself might be strong enough but the double sided tape on the back is not very good. Hope this helps...

I agree with Grits. I don't have an Ikea file drawer, but I think they will fit any standard file setup. The difference to me is that the black plastic has some "depth" to it... so when these are empty, they take up more space in the drawer (won't mush flat) than normal hanging file folders. But once there's (enough) paper in the folder, it doesn't matter.

Looking to use to store folder sleeves that I purchased on ULINE for my shop paperwork holders. The dimensions are: Job Ticket Holders - 9 x 12". Would this product work to hold them without bending them?

They are not sticky so you would need to adhere something to the back. I hot glued magnets to the back of mine.

I would just go to my local hardware, they should a spring clip that would work. A strong/large binder clip (think office max) would also work.

The magnetic part is hollow and there is a metal piece that screws into the wall. You slide the magnetic part into that piece. I would advice against using double sided tape. I use this at my bakery to hold pizza cutters but has evolved into knife, spoons, pizza cutter holders. If I use double sided tape it would probably just fall off and maybe liable to hurt someone.

If I were you, I'd simply use double-sided foam tape. Command strips would have to be used side-ways but you could use them. Use several per magnetic item. Item is wood and about 3/4" thick by almost 2" wide. Give it a try.

Either will work but the magnets are very strong and holds really well. I had one for years and just bought one as a gift for my son.

these worked for me. I was retrofitting an old dresser to work as our kitchen island. I fastened them on the bottom of drawer and the bottom of the drawer casing. did not fasten to rear wall. not sure if that helps because there are so many different type of uses for these.

I don't think tape would work with these. I also bought a second set of these to put on some other cabinets, but you have to be careful of the design of the cabinet. The first ones worked well with a thicker edge, with enough room to drill. The second set I tried to put in was on a beveled edge, thinner wood cabinet. The hole for the magnet would have drilled completely through, so they were useless. I'd say you need at least 3/4"-1" of depth, and almost 2" of width at the edge of the cabinet to be safe.

I think they are the perfect size for the bottle cap magnets. That is what I use them for. They are small and strong, and most often offered for a great price here on amazon.
