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.

These magnets are so strong that it is difficult to separate them without using some kind of prying tool, my fingers alone are too weak to do it. They will do the job I purchased them for very well.
The magnets I received were shipped quickly and securely, and I had no issues with delivery. They were packed well and in good shape when I received them. I noticed no defect with the magnets and I I was able to use them exactly as I intended on back of a piece of jatoba for a magnetic knife strip. I routed a track to 1/8” and glued and epoxied the magnets in place. The magnets provide sufficient pull strength to hold knives without being too energetic about grabbing them from the hand. These met my need precisely and I would purchase again if I decide to make more of these magnetic knife holders.
I used the magnets on a wooden toy box for my grandson. Easy to install and the perfect strength. I will be buying different sizes for other projects.
Ordered these magnets for a project that I was working on. Received as stated & described, the magnets are what I was looking for. Will order from them again.
Used this for a hobby project I’m working on and the magnets held my project together very well. The finish on them were uniform and packaged them very well. They were shipped and received very timely and will be re-ordering more.
Good customer service, great price & quick to ship
I was hoping to find a strong, low profile magnet to use on my project - which is a restoration of a WWII Army Footlocker. I wanted to attach some old photos and postcards to the underside of the lid, but without using any permanent adhesives which may have affected my paint job. These worked perfectly!
