Pot & Hook & Mounting Magnets

Pot magnets, or neodymium deep pot magnets, are the magnets contained with non magnetic or non metallic casing or housing, therefore that concludes the cup magnet, hook magnet, pot magnet, fishing magnet, mounting magnet, clamping magnet, pushpin or thumbtack magnet, bolt counterbores magnet, rubber magnet, thread magnet, epoxy magnet, other coated magnet and custom-made magnets, etc.


That protects from corrosion, impact damage and magnetism reduction quite helpfully. That concentrates the magnetism in one direction without regularly discussing further detail together. That provides to the extreme versatility for wide range of applications in industrial, commercial and personal area.


Pot magnets are working for heavy duty objects in requirement of high pulling force, such as 100 lbs(45 kg) and more. They have more advantages and functions over traditional magnets, maybe more than you can expect.

All you need to know about magnets and manufacturer
Chapter 1

What is neodymium magnet?

Neodymium magnet (NdFeB), also known as rare-earth magnet, is the strongest type of permanent magnet available today. Made from a combination of neodymium, iron, and boron. It is not until the late 19th century, neodymium was successfully isolated by Carl Auer von Welsbach and then wildly used in modern technology since 1980s.


Primary Elements

  1. Neodymium (Nd): A rare-earth metal that provides high magnetic strength.

  2. Iron (Fe): Enhances magnetization and structural stability.

  3. Boron (B): Improves coercivity (resistance to demagnetization).

  4. Additives: Dysprosium (Dy) or praseodymium (Pr) may be added to improve high-temperature performance.


Primary Elements of an NdFeB Alloy

Components of Neodymium MagnetPercentage by weight
Neodymium (Nd)29% - 32%
Iron (Fe)64.2% – 68.5%
Boron (B)1.0% - 1.2%
Aluminium (Al)0.2% - 0.4%
Niobium (Nb)0.5% -1%
Dysprosium (Dy)0.8% -1.2%


Neodymium magnet is ideal for applications requiring maximum magnetic strength in minimal space. Their balance of performance, cost, and adaptability makes them the first choice for industries pushing the boundaries of technology. Neodymium magnets are everywhere in our daily life, such as motors, refrigerators, high-end speakers in home appliances; smartphones and laptops of electronics; bookmarks, clasps, pushpins, and buttons in our daily supplies.


Key Advantages

  1. Superior Strength: 5-10 times stronger than ordinary magnets.

  2. Compact Size: Achieve high performance in small dimensions.

  3. Cost-Effective: Better performance-to-price ratio compared to other rare-earth magnets.

  4. Wide Applications: Used in wireless charging, motors, speakers, medical devices, and many others.

Magnet properties

There are three main components playing important roles on magnetic properties: magnetic strength, energy product, and coercivity. They are the most critical factors for selecting the right magnet on a specific application of your own.


Comparison of the Three Properties

PropertyDefinitionUnitsImportanceExample Values
Magnetic Strength (Br)Residual magnetic flux densityGauss (G),
Tesla (T)
Determines the strength of the magnetic fieldNdFeB: 1.0–1.4 T
Energy Product (BHmax)Maximum energy densityMGOe, kJ/m³Indicates efficiency and compactnessNdFeB: Up to 52 MGOe
Coercivity (Hc)Resistance to demagnetizationOersteds (Oe), A/mEnsures stability under adverse conditionsSmCo: High coercivity



(1) Magnetic Strength (Remanence, Br)


Magnetic strength, also known as remanence (Br), is the magnetic induction or magnetization that remains in a ferromagnetic material after an external magnetic field has been applied and then removed. It is measured in gauss (Gs) or tesla (T). In other words, it is the "leftover" magnetization of a magnet when the external field is no longer present. The higher the remanence, the stronger the retained magnetic induction strength of the material, and the greater its potential to be a strong magnetic material.


Units:

  1. Gauss (G) or Tesla (T) in the CGS and SI systems(International System of Units), respectively.

  2. Conversion: 1 Tesla = 10,000 Gauss.

Applications:

  1. High remanence is crucial for applications requiring strong magnetic fields, such as electric motors, speakers, and MRI machines.



(2) Energy Product (BHmax)


The energy product (BHmax) represents the maximum energy density a magnet can store. It is the product of the magnetic induction (B) and the magnetic field strength (H) at any point on the demagnetization curve. The maximum value of this product is called the maximum energy product, denoted as (BHmax). The higher the BHmax, the more energy-efficient the magnet is in a small size, and the better its ability to produce a magnetic field in practical applications. In theory,  (BHmax) equals ½ Br² .


Units:

  1. Mega-Gauss-Oersteds (MGOe) in the CGS system or KiloJoules per cubic meter (kJ/m³) in the SI system.

  2. Conversion: 1 MGOe = 7.96 kJ/m³.

Applications:

  1. High-energy product magnets are used in compact devices like headphones, hard drives, and electric vehicle motors.



(3) Coercivity (Hc)


Coercivity (Hc), also known as magnetic coercivity, coercive field, or coercive force, measures a magnet's resistance to demagnetization from an external magnetic field. It is the intensity of the reverse magnetic field required to reduce the material's magnetization to zero. High coercivity ensures the magnet retains its magnetic properties under adverse conditions (e.g., high temperatures or external fields).


Normally there are two types of coercivity: 

  1. Intrinsic Coercivity (Hcj): Resistance to demagnetization from internal factors.

  2. Coercive Force (Hcb): Resistance to demagnetization from external fields.


Units:

  1. Oersteds (Oe) in the CGS system or Amperes per meter (A/m) in the SI system.

  2. Conversion: 1 Oe = 79.6 A/m.

Applications:

  1. Magnets with high coercivity are used in environments with strong external fields or elevated temperatures, such as aerospace and military applications.
