Cow magnets are great refrigerator magnets! Very cheap, can be used at different angles, and stronger than pretty much any other refrigerator magnet.

- mgerdts 3y agoA few decades back I fabricated and wired industrial controls. While wiring, we used cow magnets to attach the blueprints to the open cabinet doors so that they were always within sight was we strung wires between PLCs, terminal blocks, relays, buttons, etc. Even when there were several pages of blueprint stapled together a few cow magnets tended to hold them in place. You just had to be sure to orient them such that they didn’t roll down the door.
- aidenn0 3y agoThe magnets designed for glass whiteboards are arguably too powerful for working as a refrigerator magnet. I was able to pin a 100 page paperback book to the fridge with one of these[1]. For fridges I recommend these[2], which are $8-15 for a ten-pack and plenty strong (plus the shape makes them easy to grab). 1: https://amazingmagnets.com/product-category/large-pawn-magnets/?orderby= https://amazingmagnets.com/product-category/large-pawn-magne... 2: https://amazingmagnets.com/product-category/WB-Series-Whiteboard-Magnets/?orderby= https://amazingmagnets.com/product-category/WB-Series-Whiteb...
- djmips 3y agoI feel like in an argumentive mood. I like very strong fridge magnets. They can hold thicker items.
- hoseja 3y agoWhy do you want to affix thick articles to your fridge door.
- aidenn0 3y agoOh, I have a few for just such a reason. I just don't want to unconditionally recommend them to someone without also saying that they are probably overkill. I also use male-threaded magnets and wingnuts to hold my cable-management pegboard to the bottom of my desk. There I went extra strong because I don't expect them to ever be moved.
