Questions and Answers

Don't want to make a hole in your blouse or sheer fabrics? No problem. The MagnaPin will allow you to wear a pin on your clothing using strong magnets instead of piercing the fabric. The MagnaPin is 12 mm wide so it will fit most pins without being bulky. You just open your pin, put the pinstem through the back and close it. The MagnaPin slides apart in two sections with one on each side of your clothing to hold your pin in place. For very large or very heavy pins, you may need to use two MagnaPins.

Detailed instructions are included in the little box! Be sure to read them if you are having difficulty pulling the magnets apart. They are very powerful so you just slide them apart to break the attraction. Magnapins are often snug when they are brand new. If so, start out with a thinner pinstem to loosen or stretch the rubber grip inside a little bit.

**Be sure to keep magnets a safe distance away from medical devices etc. as directed by your physician or their manufacturers.**

Q: Can you please provide dimensions of magnet including smallest pin length that device can accommodate. My brooch has a diameter of 10mm with a pin length of 17mm. Thank you.

Asked by: Jackie - 3/27/2023

A: Jackie,

The magnapin is 12mm wide/high. I'm not sure how you are measuring your brooch but if it is really only 10mm then the magnapin would probably peek out a bit since it is 12mm.

I cannot provide exact measurements of all the pins that would fit it since it also depends on the pinstem, where the hinge and catch are located and how much clearance there is between it and the back of the brooch. But usually if a brooch has a pinstem long enough to accommodate 12mm with some room left on the sides, it will fit.

Sincerely,

Q: Years ago owned one. Thought it came in two sizes. Need for large pins 2x2in . Is this proper size? Thank you P.S. I prefer no returning.

Asked by: Diane - 9/27/2022

A: Diane,

Genuine magnapins only come in the one size. It should hold a 2x2 pin as long as the pinstem is not too fat and is about the thickness we recommend. Depending on the pin and the orientation of the pinstem, you might need to use a stabilizer on both sides like the silicone pin keepers we offer in the supplies section (some folks use little pieces of erasers or even a make-up sponge as needed). Every pin is different so there is sometimes some trial and error involved.

I'm not sure what product you might have purchased before since I am unfamiliar with it.

Sincerely,

Q: What diameter pin will go through the hole? Thank you

Asked by: Carmel - 5/3/2022

A: The Magnapin will fit modern pinstems which run about 0.028mm or 21 gauge. You can probably go up a wee bit bit thicker once you stretch the rubber out a bit. Handcrafted pinstems or antique pieces that are thicker would most likely be too big.
