Description

Thanks to its excellent properties, pot magnet has a wide range of applications in the industry and our everyday life. If you want to know what are the types of pot magnets, then you’ve come to the right place. In this article, we will briefly introduce the types of pot magnets. But before going any further, let’s figure out what is a pot magnet first.

A typical Pot Magnet usually consists of a magnet contained within a casing or housing. The ferromagnetic housing is often a plated mild steel material but ferritic stainless steel (400 series) is also used, which is popular for its corrosion resistance. See our range of pot magnets.

The pot magnet typically clamps with high concentrated magnetic forces when in direct contact with ferrous based surfaces. The clamping / pull force, when in direct contact, is normally higher than conventional standard magnets. This is because the magnetic circuit is optimised for clamping applications (by removing air gaps from the magnetic circuit).

Compared with a single neodymium countersunk magnet, a pot magnet has more advantages:

1. More Magnetic Strength with Small Size: the steel housing concentrates magnetic force on one side and increases the holding power dramatically. 2. Cost Saving: due to the super-strong magnetic force, it can use fewer rare earth magnets and reduce the magnet cost. 3. Durability: neodymium magnets are very brittle, steel, or rubber covering can protect them. 4. Mounting Options: pot magnets can apply to many accessories, so they can work with different mounting options.

Recently, Stanford Magnets succeeded in redesigning a strong pot magnet assembly after two unsuccessful attempts. In the case of no change of magnet system size, it increases the magnetic pull force greatly.
