6mm Sterling Silver Magnetic Clasp (Mag-Lok)

Great for bracelets and light necklaces, these magnetic clasps are very powerful, self-aligning, and well manufactured (sterling silver and NO glue assembly). These are especially good for people who have difficulty with normal clasps. It is easy to attach to a necklace or bracelet using jump rings strung through the loop in each side of the clasp. You will be amazed by how well these hold together. CAUTION: Magnetic clasps should not be used with a pacemaker. Remember, when you buy your beads and bead supplies from Artbeads.com, FREE SHIPPING is available in the USA with orders of $10 or more.

Date:January 15, 2013
Pros: Price, Quality
Creation: bracelets
"I use these with all my bracelets and have even "switched out" clasps from jewelry store bracelets to these magnet clasps. The sterling silver ones wear really well and don't come apart unless you pull them apart. (for "expensive" designs, i add a safety chain for extra security.) Just love these clasps. they are the best out there"

"This clasp is wonderful for bracelets and necklaces. Very strong magnet, and I love that it is understated enough that it does not overpower the jewelry design. Reliable little clasp, hence the WonderMagnet title!"

"I received my magnetic clasp and put in on my bracelet right way. This has to be one of the greatest inventions EVER! Finally, I can put on my bracelet myself and people can stop saying I'm bugging the heck out of them. :)"

Simple, strong clasp
Date:June 28, 2011
Pros: Size, Price, Ease of Use, Quality, Color
Creation: necklace
"I wanted this to make a two-strand necklace with Swarovski beads with a simple clasp that wouldn't be too obvious, since I wanted the brilliance of the beads to show. I make necklaces to match my ballroom dancing costumes, and need to be able to get the necklace on and off quickly without struggling with a lobster or other type of ring clasp. This clasp is great, and I've ordered several more."

practical and attractive necklace or bracelet
Date:October 27, 2010
Pros: Price, Quality, Size, Unique, Color, Versatile, Ease of Use
Cons: side loops could be bigger
Other beading styles or techniques: stringing
Creation: clasp for those who like hassle free clasp closure
"A favourite with everyone, attractive, easy to use. little trickey to attach but worth it. Likes to stick to everything. The side loops could be bigger, mostly I use jump ring to expand the loops a little. Always a chance a jump ring will loosen with the tugging. Still my favourite."

GOOD FOR BRACELETS
Date:September 9, 2010
Pros: Price, Quality
Cons: Size
"WORKS GREAT ON A BRACELET. GOT IT FOR A NECKLACE FOR MY MOM, BUT SHE COULD NOT GET CLASP THROUGH THE OPENING ON HER CHARM. SHE WANTS TO BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE CHARM AND USE NECKLACE FOR A VARIETY OF PENDANTS."

Love these!

Pros: Price, Quality, Size, Unique, Color, Versatile, Ease of Use
Other beading styles or techniques: crystal bracelet creation
Creation: Crystal Bracelets
"These are fantastic! They're small & perfect! The only cons I would throw in is that sometimes the middle magnet comes out but that's why I put super glue around the edges in case of mishaps! But, otherwise these are so horribly perfect!
I recommend these to anyone in the jewelry industry looking for perfect little magnets to work with whatever they're creating!"

Very easy in bracelets!
Date:January 20, 2010
Pros: Quality, Size, Versatile, Ease of Use
Other beading styles or techniques: Stringing
Creation: Bracelet
"I use these in my bracelets. I am always a little clumsy with regular clasps in bracelets. But with these it is supereasy.
When you are adding them to a bracelet, it is a bit tricky, because they want to attach themselves to your pliers, but it is do-able.
I also like the look of them, they are small and elegant.

Pros: Quality, Size, Versatile, Ease of Use, strong
"I use this on the necklaces and bracelets I've made for my Mom - she has arthritis in her hands - and she loves the ease of putting on and taking off. She is also thrilled with how strong it is. This is a hard lady to please, and she is now sending me other necklaces to change over to this clasp."

Magnetic Clasp
Date:September 30, 2006
"This is the perfect clasp for older adults who have trouble fastening traditional clasps - or klutzy people like me. The magnet on this is especially strong so there is no chance of it coming off unless someone pulls REALLY hard. It's small, so it won't detract from your jewelry design."
