Magnets

Alnico Magnets

Alnico magnets derive their magnetic properties and name from these elements – ALuminum, NIckel, and CObalt. Alnico magnets are manufactured using a powder metallurgy process (sintered alnico) or a foundry process (cast alnico). They have the widest range of temperature stability of any standard magnetic material. Other characteristics include high residual induction as well as relatively high energies. The corrosion resistance of alnico is considered excellent and no surface treatments are required, but alnico magnets can be easily plated.

Business and School Magnets

BuyMagnets.com offers many different magnetic products for businesses and schools. We have products suited for a wide range of business settings, such as magnetic name tags for retail employees and magnetic business cards for networking professionals. To increase safety in school and office environments, we also offer innovative lockdown magnets. Our stock is constantly growing as we seek to provide new magnetic solutions to meet every challenge.

Ceramic Magnets

Ceramic magnets are low cost, lightweight, and high energy. They are primarily made of the materials iron oxide and strontium carbonate, which are very easily attainable and comparatively low cost. Because of their low cost, they are one of the most popular permanent magnets. They are also popular due to their ability to withstand operating temperatures of up to 480 °F. BuyMagnets.com offers ceramic magnets in many different sizes, shapes, and strengths.

Electromagnets and Power Supplies

Strong Electromagnets - 100% Duty Cycle

Electromagnets from BuyMagnets.com provide an efficient, economical solution for handling and holding ferrous parts. BuyMagnets.com stocks many different shapes and sizes of electromagnets which are suitable for use in a wide variety of manual and automated applications. Choose from strong, small rectangular electromagnets and round electromagnets. By utilizing a combination of electricity and magnetism, electromagnets excel at holding ferrous materials. Because an electromagnet’s current—and magnetic field—can be switched on and off, electromagnets have unique utility and advantages. Namely, electromagnets are ideal for picking up items at one location, transporting them, and then releasing them at a destination. Electromagnets increase production and facilitate automation.

 

Note: Electromagnets operate as holding magnets when they come in direct contact with ferrous materials, they will not attract or repel ferrous materials when placed at a distance. All electromagnets require a proper supply in order to be operated properly.

With options to meet all of your design and functionality requirements, BuyMagnets.com is your go to retailer for high quality, dependable magnetic catches.

Magnetic Door Stops

Magnetic door stops from BuyMagnets.com firmly hold doors, gates, and panels when there is a presence of vibration, drafts, or sudden acceleration. Magnetic door stops are easy to install and deliver immediate results. When you install a magnetic door stop, you protect your walls from damage, eliminate the annoyance of doors slamming shut, and protect yourself against the expenses that drafty doors can cause from a heating and cooling standpoint. Magnetic door stops are available in both wall mounted and floor mounted options.

Magnetic Lifters

Heavy-Duty, Lifting Magnets

 

Bunting MagLifts are permanent magnetic lifters powered by blocks of high-energy neodymium magnetic material. Our Lift Magnets are great for lifting, loading, unloading and moving steel blocks and cylinders. A job that takes two men with hooks, chains or slings can be done with one hand using a Bunting® magnetic lifter. No more struggles to attach heavy or awkward loads. No more worries about the stability of the load once it is lifted. No factory, dock or warehouse should be without one! Choose between hand-controlled permanent magnetic lifters, and ML series magnetic lifters.  Parts for your lift magnets are also available, such as magnetic lifter handles, lifter locks, and lifter name plates.

 

Switching the magnet on/off is easily achieved by simply moving the handle. In the “on” position, the reversible magnetic block is in parallel with the static magnetic block so that a concentrated magnetic field is produced at the pole feet for lifting. In the “off” position, the reversible magnetic block is rotated through 180 degrees to provide a total magnetic short circuit within the lifter body. Permanent magnets and manual switching means no operating costs.

Magnetic Pull Test Kits

Magnet Pull Testers - Standard and Digital Scales

 

Magnetic pull test kits provide a simple, reliable way to monitor the performance of your magnetic separation equipment by measuring its strength, or holding force. We offer magnetic strength testers in two options: the Standard Scale Magnetic Pull Test Kit and the Digital  Magnetic Pull Test Kit. If magnetic separation equipment is not performing at the appropriate level, metal contamination may not be effectively removed from product flow, and severe damage to equipment can result. Measuring and recording the strength of your magnetic equipment with magnetic pull testers allows you to track its performance and quickly identify and resolve any problems. Magnetic pull test kits from BuyMagnets.com are a cost-efficient and simple way to monitor performance of your magnetic separation equipment and maintain quality standards in your facility.
