Would anybody know the fractional equivalent to the aforementioned sizes? Unless I’m missing it, K&J Magneticz doesn’t have metric listings.

Also 2mmx1mm, while I’m at it.

The closest would be 1/12" for 2x2mm magnets, 1/32" for 1x1mm magnets and presumably 1/12 by 1/32" for 1x2mm magnets.

Thank you.

When I started magnetizing, I picked up a pack of 2mm magnets. At the time I just had imperial bits for my drill. The set I had included a 5/64th bit, which according to math should be 1.98438mm. Made holes that the magnets would fit snugly in.

Might have trouble finding magnets at that size, but I know you can get drills. Not very easy finding metric drill sets at your local hardware store.
