Neodymium Mounting Magnets
Neodymium mounting magnets, often called pot/cup magnets, are ideal for applications that require both strength and durability. Each magnet is encased in a steel cup which helps protect the magnet from impact as well as enhances its magnetic pull. That makes these magnets a great value with lots of versatility.
What are pot magnets?
Pot magnets, sometimes called mounting magnets or cup magnets, are a type of magnet that is encased in a housing made of metal. The housing helps to increase the strength of the magnet and can also protect the magnet from damage. Pot magnets are available in a range of sizes and strengths, and they can also be made from a variety of materials, including neodymium, ceramic, and alnico.
What makes pot magnets so strong?
Pot magnets offer a great value because of their ability to amplify a magnet's strength. Steel is a ferromagnetic material, which means that it can be magnetized. When a magnet is placed near a piece of steel, the steel becomes magnetized by induction and develops its own magnetic field. The magnetic field of the steel amplifies the magnet's field, increasing its strength. This is why steel is often used in the construction of magnets, such as in the housing of pot magnets and cup magnets. The presence of the steel helps to increase the strength of the magnet and make it more effective at attracting and holding ferromagnetic materials.
