Alnico Channel Magnets
BuyMagnets.com offers alnico channel magnets, a design that features alnico magnets housed within a steel channel. The steel channels can significantly increase the strength of raw magnetic material, meaning that channel magnets excel at concentrating large amounts of holding strength onto one greater surface. The steel channel also protects the alnico magnet from damage, improving its durability and longevity as a result.

Alnico Disc Magnets
BuyMagnets.com stocks 12 different varieties of alnico disc magnets, with our smallest size measuring at 0.125” x 0.062” and our largest size measuring at 0.5” x 0.5”. What can you use an alnico disc magnet for? Try electronics, sensors, sound equipment, and many more industrial and consumer applications. Don’t be afraid to turn up the heat—alnico magnets have a maximum operating temperature of up to 1000 °F.

Alnico Horseshoe Magnets
Alnico horseshoe magnets are designed to position the north and south poles of a magnet closely together, creating a powerful magnetic field between the two poles. This allows them to achieve high holding strengths and concentrate their magnetic power. Additionally, the horseshoe design protects magnets from becoming demagnetized. BuyMagnets.com stocks classic shapes of alnico horseshoe magnets as well as alnico U-shaped magnets.

Alnico Pot Magnets
Pot magnets are designed so that a permanent magnet is encased within a steel shell. This steel shell, or pot, increases the holding strength of the magnet contained inside of it. The steel shell also protects magnets from chipping or cracking. The steel shell concentrates magnetic force on one side of the magnet, which greatly increases its gripping force. Because of this, pot magnets are used in many gripping, holding, and clamping applications.

Alnico Rectangular Magnets
Grade 8H alnico magnets are the strongest variety of alnico magnet that BuyMagnets.com stocks. What can you use an alnico block magnet for? Try electronics, sensors, sound equipment, and many more industrial and consumer applications. Don’t be afraid to turn up the heat—alnico magnets have a maximum operating temperature of up to 1000 °F.

Alnico Ring Magnets
When a magnet is designed in a ring shape, a door to opportunity is unlocked. Alnico ring magnets have a circular shape and a hollow center, allowing them to be strung or threaded onto string, rod, or wire. Alnico ring magnets are desirable for their high residual induction, high energies, corrosion resistance, and for the fact that they have the widest temperature stability out of any standard magnetic material.

Alnico Rotor Magnets
Featuring multiple poles that alternate in polarity, alnico rotor magnets are an excellent choice for turbine generators or motors. They are equipped with a center-hole design that allows for easy installation onto shafts. Alnico rotor magnets can be ordered with 4, 6, or 8 poles.
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.
