can this be applied to steel for magnet use?

It can definitely be applied to steel surface as long as it is smooth. Magnets can still stick on the steel through this contact paper. However, this contact paper by itself is not magnetic.

I have only used them on softer metals (copper, aluminum), so I have no personal experience with steel, but as they are diamond files, they should work on any metal (harder metals will just take longer to file).

If it is made of ferrous metal, so the magnet will work, you should not have any issues.

I doubt it would work on something that hard. I used it for marking keys, and it struggled a little with that. It worked, but not as well as I would have like it to. Seems like hardened steel might be out of its league

It should work. I use mine on vinyl and it works perfect holding an outdoor clock. The vinyl does not bend so I am sure it should work on steel as well. Good luck.

The magnet is encased in plastic. It is all one piece. The magnet could hold the weapon and to the steel surface, but when you try to draw the weapon, it may still be attached to the weapon. Possibly a super strong tape or Velcro could be used if you don't want to attach the magnet with the screws. I used double sided tape to mount the magnet in the console of my vehicle and it works well.

Yes you can. It can be used on about any type of material, as long as you use the right length staple.

I would think so ive seen it used on pistol slides. i haven't used it on anymetal myself tho.

Hi Ellen,My guess is yes. I think it's heat that reduces magnetism. The magnets are not as strong as let's say a knife strip you install to attached knives. However, it's pretty strong.Hope this helps!-G

The magnets are supper strong and will attach to any flat steel surface. If it's a kettle grill it might be a problem. I don't leave mine outside with the grill and have had it for years

Never tried putting a magnet on it. I'm no metallurgist, but from the feel of it I would guess a magnet would not stick, but I honestly don't know.

Yes, it is magnetized. It will stick to any symmetrical end-surface properly as long as that surface is ferrous. If you don't mind that much money for a little convenience, it will work for your application.

I don't know. It is for metals and I suspect you could contact the company and ask

Magnets don't have the same effect on aluminum, fun fact if you have enough aluminum a strong magnet will actually slow the movement down instead of a force to bring it together. If you were to drag a powerful magnet along a bar of aluminum there would be resistance, I believe its an electrical force but this is very old stuff for me I can't be sure.The top clip part however looks like stainless steel and magnets will most definitely work.

I use mine for electronics. You can't solder stainess or steel. It would have to be made out of brass or copper. A better idea would be the gun type soldering iron or something bigger than this one. I think I would call someplace like Guitar Center and ask what they use.

the product is not a raw magnet and comes with a finished sleeve. It would not be impossible but would require some skill on sheet metal fabrication to make the product look as finished as it does out of the box

To be honest, that's a silly question that's like asking if a magnet can hold a piece of paper to the fridge (provided the fridge was magnetic to begin with.) In any case the answer is yes. But beware of this paint, even though it's called STAINLESS steel, it actually stains the thing you're painting and makes it sort of steel colored.
