Can these magnets connect to each other?

These nagnets are very weak. I cant get them to hold anything up. they do stick together pretty well, but that doesnt help me. I had to buy different magnets.

Good idea. Never thought of that, very nifty idea. YES they are magnetic. Had to test it since you asked. :)

I would think you could, though they actually would not be hooked together. You could either install end to end vertically, but the ties would have to go to the left and right sides. You could put one in front of the other and have all the ties go to one side.

Unfortunately they are not designed to be connected together. either cut on '4 section and take it to your local hardware store and find a suitable adapter fitting, or use duct tape (which is what I do). Since connecting them is only temporary for my use, duct-tape is a realistic option for quick use. if your purpose is for something more permanent, any hardware store should carry an inexpensive adapter or coupling.

sure but they are weak as magnets... very weak! check out earth magnets, very powerful !

Yes these will work however they are super strong and sometimes difficult (but not impossible) to pry off of one another.

Probably not. These magnets are fairly weak. That is just my opinion, but I find these to barely be able to hold themselves to a surface, let alone hold anything.

Yes, but they are seperate. They both screw into the same base but you can not have both on at the same time...bummer.

Probably not... I don't think the magnets would be strong enough to have it attach.

No. This pairs with a specific channel that it's designed to slide into. In my case, I was replacing an identical strip that had lost it's magnetic force over the years.

I'm not sure that this would be a good application for these magnets. The magnetic field produced is very strong, but decreases rapidly with distance. I would imagine that you would have problems holding them in place. I would suggest that you buy the contacts and install them according to manufacturer's recommendations. For example, one well-liked offering on Amazon is Interlogix Door/Window Terminal Contact, Surface Mount, White by UTC (Formerly GE Security/Sentrol). There are several alternatives listed. While it might be nice to engineer your own system, these contacts are inexpensive and easy to install. This, I believe is preferable to using these magnets. This appears to be a case of not reinventing the wheel.

Not easily. You would need to drill new holes for the hinges on the opposite side and relocate the magnet pieces so they matched up and were on the correct side.

You can connect them but you'll have an open pin because all connections are 3 pin. Hope this helps.

Good question. I will conduct an experiment and let you know. I don't know how strong these are in quantitative terms but they are pretty damn strong for such tiny magnets.

Yes but check the depth. These have a much bigger magnet so you may need to make spacers...I did. All worked out well though...I'm very happy with them.

Sure - but you have to know where the weak link is. In some cases the magnet to metal connection may be stronger than the glued connection so when you try to pull things apart the glue connection will "fail", i.e. separate, instead of the magnet separating from the metal.

I just tested a magnet and there was a strong connection. It should work based on this.
