Sugatsune MC-159 magnetic catch provides an ultra thin steel catch with 8.8lbs magnetic force, so doors and panels stay closed securely under normal cabinet use where a compact latch is needed. The ultra thin body helps when clearance is tight behind a door or panel, supporting clean layouts in cabinets and casework. The black finish lets the catch blend with darker interiors or hardware layouts, which helps when exposed components need to be visually discreet. As a magnetic catch in the Locks and Latches category, it works as a simple open-close solution without complex mechanisms. The defined 8.8lbs magnetic force offers a consistent closing feel from unit to unit, which supports repeatable results on multi-door runs. Brand identification as Sugatsune America gives installers a clearly identified MC-159 series component to match across similar projects and specifications.
This ultra thin magnetic catch uses steel construction and a compact profile, which helps positioning it on cabinet frames or panels where mounting surface depth is limited. The web description specifies that screws not included; use M3 flat head or equivalent, so installers can drill and drive for a flush-mounted fastener head that sits properly in the catch holes. Using M3 flat head style fasteners supports neat alignment with the catch body, which helps maintain a consistent gap between magnet and counterplate for predictable holding force. The note that the counterplate should not hit magnet guides placement, because a small stand-off between the two components reduces impact on the magnet and supports service life in typical open-close cycles.
The ultra thin steel magnetic catch works well in cabinets or casework where clearance between door and interior components is tight, because the low profile helps avoid interference with shelves or face frames. Being part of the Locks and Latches category under Catches makes it suited to applications where a simple magnetic closing action is preferred over complex latching hardware. The black finish supports use in darker kitchen, bath, or commercial furniture interiors, where a dark component aligns with overall design schemes. At 8.8lbs magnetic force, the catch can hold lightweight to moderate cabinet doors shut in typical woodworking projects, providing a familiar closing feel across multiple openings. The steel body forms a stable mounting base, which is useful when fastening to wood or engineered panels in shop-built or onsite work.
The specified 8.8lbs magnetic force helps installers predict closing strength across multiple doors, which is useful for banked cabinets that need consistent user feel from one opening to the next. The note specifying counterplates MC-YN001U or MC-JM49 sold separately indicates which matching counterplates align with this catch, allowing a known magnetic interface when assembling the system. Keeping the counterplate from hitting the magnet helps preserve the magnet surface, so opening and closing cycles stay smooth over time. The instruction to use M3 flat head or equivalent screws standardizes the mounting hardware size, supporting predictable hole sizing and torque settings during installation. Working with an ultra thin design also simplifies retrofit situations, because the catch can often be added without major changes to existing door clearances or stop positions in many cabinet layouts.
The Sugatsune MC-159-BL magnetic catch has an 8.8lbs magnetic force, providing a firm closing pull suited to typical cabinet doors and panels.
The Sugatsune MC-159 Series magnetic catch is described as ultra thin, which supports use where limited clearance behind the door or panel is available.
The MC-159-BL magnetic catch is specified for use with M3 flat head or equivalent screws, which allows the screw heads to sit flush in the catch body.
The web description notes counterplate MC-YN001U or MC-JM49 sold separately as matching pieces for the MC-159-BL magnetic catch.
The MC-159-BL magnetic catch has a noted maximum temperature of 80C, or 176F, defining its recommended thermal operating range.
The MC-159-BL specification states the counterplate should not hit the magnet to avoid damage, supporting longer service life of the magnetic surface.
The Sugatsune MC-159 magnetic catch in black finish combines an ultra thin steel body with 8.8lbs magnetic force, making it useful where compact but positive door closure is wanted. With specified M3 flat head screw mounting and documented matching counterplates MC-YN001U or MC-JM49 sold separately, this catch offers a clearly defined setup for repeat cabinet runs. Selecting the MC-159-BL gives installers a predictable magnetic catch from Sugatsune America that aligns with tight-clearance layouts and darker design schemes.
