Magnets - anywhere to buy in canada
 

Looking for small plastic magnets to hold frag rack. Anyone know of retailer in Canada?

Have to go through 1" acrylic.

The ones sold with frag racks at lfs are too weak...

Best I could find was at kjmagnetics.com in the US, but the ones I would need are $26 each, hoping someone knows of better deal...

Thx

Strong rare earth magnets are expensive. I just use cheap Hagen glass cleaners.

You can get rare earth magnets at Lee Valley Tools for decent prices.. just picked up some 3/4" disks with 22lb holding pull strength for $9 for 5.

They would have to be coated for a tank, but it might something that would work for you.

Princess auto in Coquitlam also sells rare earth magnets for fairly cheap...

Plus one for Lee Valley

Checked out princess auto and lee valley. I don't think any of there magnets are strong enough, I prob need about 60lbs pull force... Also would rather not have to coat them..

Same goes for Hagen glass cleaners..

How big is this frag rack?

It's not the size of the rack that is the issue, it's the 1" thick acrylic the magnet has to work through...

Ah. Ya, that would require something big.

Honey .. I cant find magnets big enough for the glass we are going to have to plumb in a 40g breeder frag tank into this system ...
