I want to use this to attach a magnetic knife holder to a tiled backsplash. I don't want to drill screw holes. Will this be strong enough to hold.

I'm sure it will. I use this double sided tape to hold wood down to another piece when I run it thru a planer. It takes a lot of sticking strength to do it.

I've never had the need to use the magnet for that type of weight. But I just do see it being used objects that heavy. I beleive the extension piece would give out too. It's great for a dropped tool or small piece of hardware. Nothing heavy-duty

interesting Q.... I just tried mine (not yet mounted) and yes it grabbed very well to the metal refrig side. It would probably take the magnet with it tho' as you draw. I'd use a couple small screwsShould work fine. The magnets are VERY powerful. I have two I just received and they will leap together and would nip a fingertip off if you are not careful.Steve

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.

It would depend on how strong the pull is. The magnet is quite strong but certainly has limits. Don't forget you have mount these pieces and wood would be more ideal.

You will have to drill a couple of holes, of course. With tile, I would use care not to muscle the drill too much. Let the drill do the work of penetrating the tile. From there, install is pretty easy. Even if you did do some minor chipping of the tile, the bar would probably cover it and it would not be seen. It's a fine unit and holds all my knives in a nice orderly way. I would give it a shot, even on tile.

I doubt it would be strong enough for that. Handles screws well but bolts might require too much torque imo.

I'm Not sure if command strips will be strong enough to hold this thing. The issue is that for the knives to attach and detach nicely the mount has to be firmly attached with no wiggle or play. I used 3M outdoor tape to attach mine which worked fine but that stuff is strong and difficult to remove so it might not be applicable for you. You might be able to put the large command strips across the entire length and make it work. Also keep in mind the weight of the knives you are hanging.

I would say strong enough to hold when full of binder clips, paperclips, or other objects that might have some heft. Strength in magnets is a little hard to measure for these, but I use mine for a spice rack and I never worry about them falling off, even when nudged accidentally. Hope that helps.

I don't understand what you're asking. But I will say that you can mount it to any wood surface that is thick enough. I would not go less than 1/2" for stability. If you use machine screws with washers and nuts, sheet metal that is sturdy enough to be rigid while sharpening would be sufficient I would think.

I don't believe the magnets are strong enough. This is a series of small magnets mounted inside steel bar. It's really not quite strong enough for heavy duty tools, such as large pliers.

I used 5 coats and regular kitchen magnets will stick, but will not hold anything. I bought some 3/4 inch rare earth magnets and they form a very secure bond now with my wall. The rare earth magnets hold large sheets of my child's painted artwork easily. After trying the rare earth magnets, this seems like an excellent product. If I'd stuck with the kitchen magnets, I would still be disappointed.

I would not use for that purpose! Look on a can of Magnetic/Chalkboard Paint for the brand of extra-strong magnets recommended by the magnetic paint company.

The magnet is strong enough to keep all my pins in it without falling out but it's not so strong that I can't grab them. I think it is designed for your application!

I mounted mine using Command Strips about a year ago and it's still going strong. You have to be a little creative about it and make sure that they cure before you hang anything on it. I can't promise it'll work if you're using to hold any particularly heavy knives or tools, but it works for me.

Yes, I would say it may be strong enough but I would still mount it to the shelf from underneath or on each side. It is sturdy though and I love the cabinets. Remember, these are all made from particle board with a formica type coating.....but they are good quality.

Hi, I have the magnetic knife tool bar mounted horizontally to the side of an upper kitchen cabinet. If you are also installing it to a similar cabinet, it should work. If you have children in the house, open displaying would not be safe, I would think. As the other reviewer noted, lots of opening and closing, and movement of some sort, will dislodge the knives.
