Custom & Wholesale Powerful Mounting Magnets for Home or Industrial Applications

What is mounting magnet?

Mounting magnet is the general name of all types of permanent magnets and assemblies used in offices, workshops, stores and trade shows as hanging / fixing / installing everything from different lamps on the car roof to artworks in museums.

It is one of the most practical fixing solutions where drilling is not suitable on surfaces, available in a wide range of colors, shapes, material and assemblies.

THE RIGHT CHOICE of mounting magnet will ensure safe, convenient and affordable installing solutions for your applications.

Today I’m going to share all type of mounting magnets we can do for you and how to choose.

Permanent magnet assembly

Custom Powerful Pot/Cup Magnet Pot/cup magnet is a simple magnet systems with super-strong adhesive force designed exclusively for holding/mounting/fixing application at home or at work as well as in industry or for craft, hobby and leisure. The permanent magnets are affixed into a durable steel cup or channel which makes a magnetic shielding area and concetrates all magnetic force on one side of magnet. So the pull force of pot magnet is bigger than plain permanent magnet and can hold more weight. Most of pot magnets are round shapes and mainly used as light base for vehicle signs or lightbar, also known as round base magnets. They features countersunk holes or threaded features that allow for different mounting methods, no matter standard hardware (nuts and bolts), or various hooks. Possible applications: position or hold or mount inspection equipment, indicator gauges, car lamps, work LED, signs, exhibit fixtures, tools, antennas and more. Plant construction Metal construction Booth and store construction School, training & studies Hobby & leisure

Custom Strong Colorful Outdoors Plastic Coated Waterproof Neodymium Magnets Uncoated neodymium magnets are easily oxidized. To protect our NdFeB magnets from corrosion, we will use different plating. Nickel copper nickel coating is the most common one. But even with electroplated coatings; you'd better to use neodymium magnets exclusively in dry indoor areas. If you want to use magnets in the water or outdoors, NiCuNi+plastic coated is the right choice. Our plastic coated magnets are custom powerful neodymium magnets wrapped with environment friendly colorful plastic. They are waterproof and crashproof. Possible applications: In office (e.g. magnetic whiteboards) Long-term use outdoors In wet surroundings (e.g. bathroom) Under water (e.g. Use neodymium magnets in the aquarium to hold flag racks, powerheads)

Custom Self-adhesive Backed Neodymium Magnet Our adhesive backed magnets are very powerful because of using super strong rare earth neodymium magnet with high quality pre-applied adhesive backing. Most come in small round and block shapes, but we also offer custom-shape adhesive backed mounting magnets. Due to using different adhesives such as 3M 468 or 3M 467MP or 3M VHP, we can glue magnet onto various surfaces, especially cardboard and paper. Possible applications: Clasps/closures for books, boxes, folders, mailings, greeting cards, book covers, presentation materials and other printed items, etc. Hanging up pictures on the wall without holes Magnetic name tags for weddings and office Mounting arts and crafts on a wall Hanging a poster

Custom Rubber Coated Neodymium Magnets and Assembly Rubber's elasticity, toughness, impermeability, adhesiveness, and electrical resistance make it useful as a coating material. Neodymium magnets wrapped in protective coating rubber feature waterproofing and crushproof, as well as apply to delicate metal surfaces, providing a good level of corrosion protection for outdoor use and leaving no scratch. With neodymium magnets (NdFeB) inside, rubber coated magnets have extreme strong holding forces. With rubber coating outside, neodymium magnets have great durability and high friction which can stand steadily on various surfaces, such as glass. Rubber coated magnet assembly is a magnet system with bore, countersunk, eyebolt and hook that can be used with a range of standard fasteners and attachments. Possible applications: These high strength, soft touch rubber coated magnets and assemblies are designed for different holding/mounting applications, such as furniture fixings, retail fixing, hanging artwork, keeping doors and drawers closed, holding heavy objects: lights, equipment, exhibit fixtures, tools, and other items in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, garages, work stations, etc.

2. The Performance of Magnetic Segment Impact on Motor
3. How to Choose Motor Segment Material?
4. Permanent Magnet: the Core of PM Motor
5. How to Join Neodymium Magnet Arcs Into a Radially Ring?
6. Motor Magnet Customized Service

We recently highlighted radially magnetized ring magnet for micro motor rotor in our previous blog. However, this does not mean that the traditional arc segment motor magnet will disappear gradually.Segment motor magnet has advantages of easy manufacture and low cost compared with radial magnet ring. It’s still the most common motor magnet shape, especially for PM DC motor.

1. Compared with electro-magnetic, we can list more advantages of segment arc motor magnet:

1. Simplify the structure of motor
2. Easy maintenance
3. Light weight
4. Small volume
5. Operational reliability
6. low energy consumption

2. The performance of magnetic segment impact on motor or generator:

1. Br (residual magnetic flux density): high Br can ensure that the motor has a high speed, high torque and high output power. Then the motor will have a high efficiency. Such as for starter motor, high Br magnet arc will provide high instantaneous start-up force.
2. Hcb: high Hcb can provide enough electromotive force needed for motor output, making the operating point of motor close to the maximum energy product to take full use of magnetic property.
3. Hcj: high Hcj can ensure there is a strong resistance against the demagnetization caused by motor overload, against the anti-aging, and against the low temperature. If you need durability motor, then choose high HC motor segment magnets.
4. Magnetic energy product (BH) max.: the higher (BH) max. , the better working coefficient of permanent segment magnets in the motor actual operation.
5. Magnetic flux: the bigger the better; it will greatly improve the work efficiency of the motor.
6. The rectangle degree of the demagnetization curve: the higher rectangle factor , the smaller the dynamic losses in the motor.
7. The higher resistivity, the smaller the eddy current losses.

3. How to choose motor segment material?

For traditional AC motor, ferrite and AlNiCo segment magnets are most applied. With the higher request on motor power, more and more motor manufacturers use ndfeb and smco magnet which have super high magnetic energy product. However, they are more expensive because neodymium magnet and samarium cobalt magnet segments belong to rare earth magnet. Please click here to get more analysis of different magnet material.

4. Permanent Magnet: the core of PM motor

In order to guarantee the steadily electrical performance and long-term safe and reliable operation of electric vehicles, it requires the magnetic property of permanent magnet material remains stable. Considering magnetic performance influenced by work environment, temperature and time, the reliability of permanent motor magnets can be divided into thermal stability, time stability, chemical stability and magnetic stability.

1. Temperature stability can be shown by Curie temperature and the maximum operating temperature. As the temperature rises, the magnetic properties gradually reduce. When raises to a certain temperature, the magnetization disappear. This certain temperature is the Curie temperature of the permanent magnet materials, also known as the Curie point. The deficiency of NdFeB permanent magnet is relatively low Curie temperature, but higher temperature coefficient.Thus neodymium magnet will lost much magnetic force if work under high temperature. Due to the high temperature coefficient of NdFeB permanent magnet, the magnetic properties is poor. To this end, it must pay more attention to Max. working temp.of sintered nedfeb magnet when you select an magnet grade. The test method of magnet temperature stability is aging test
2. Time stability is putting the permanent magnet at a certain temperature for a long time, observing the change of its magnetic properties over time. These NdFeB permanent magnets added Co + Dy + Nb will obtain better time stability.
3. Chemical stability refers to the anti-oxidation and corrosion-resistant of permanent magnet material. Compared with the traditional ferrite or samarium cobalt (Smco) or alnico magnets, the chemical stability of sintered NdFeB magnet is the worst. Currently, the primarily solution is adding some alloy elements such as Co, Ni, Al and Cr, etc., while in the sintering process, increasing the density and reducing the porosity of magnetic material.Another approach is make certain magnet surface treatment such as electroplating. This can obtain a practical corrosion resistance for magnet.
4. Magnetic stability is based on magnetic material, and also affected by temperature, time, external magnetic field, chemical corrosion, radiation, mechanical vibration or shock and other factors.

5. How to join neodymium magnet arcs, which are diameter magnetized, to create a cylindrical ring that is radially magnetized?

The general approach is to make a sleeve or frame to put arc magnets in that will keep them in order and don’t jump around. The sleeve here has to be made of something sturdy and nonmagnetic, such as aluminum, copper or Q235 low carbon steel. Due to strong repelling force, it’s better to operate by those experienced workers. If you are the first time to assemble segment magnets, just be careful. Halbach array magnets also utilize frame or other tools to overcome the strong magnetic repulsive force between the same pole sides of two magnets and keep them fixing together.

6. Motor Magnet Customized Service

According to special requirement of different motors or generators, there is few standard segment rotor magnets available on the market for customers to choose.

Magnetic Rotor Assembly and Halbach Array

China Magnets Source Material Limited is a professional manufacturer for permanent magnets, halbach array and magnetic rotor assemblies.

Our magnetic rotor assemblies feature precision and complex, including a wide variety of permanent magnets:

1. Samarium Cobalt (SmCo)
2. Neodymium Iron Boron
3. Ferrite
4. AlNiCo

Halbach array structure is one of rotor assemblies we made for customer worldwide.

What is halbach array? Description from Wikipedia: A Halbach array is a special arrangement of permanent magnets that augments the magnetic field on one side of the array while cancelling the field to near zero on the other side.

At present, the permanent magnet motor is developing toward high power, high function and miniaturization. The high power density and high efficiency are the common requirements for all types of permanent magnet motor design.

According to principle of motor design, the increase of magnetic loading is to increase the motor gap magnetic flux density, which can reduce motor size and improve the power density.

For permanent magnet motor, generally, there are two measures to increase air gap flux density in motor.

1. Change magnetic material: try to use permanent rare earth magnet with higher residual magnetic flux density. But restricted by magnet material performance and price, the actual alternatives are few.
2. Change magnet structure and arrangement

Halbach array is a new type of permanent magnet arrangement combined with radial and tangential array, which can increase the magnetic field on one side of and weakened the magnetic field on the other side.

Using Halbach array in permanent magnet motor can increase the magnetic flux in the air gap and decrease the magnetic flux in the rotor yoke, and it is most suitable for the inner rotor or outer rotor of the external permanent magnet.

In brief, its application in the permanent magnet motor has great advantages:

1. Sine wave of air-gap magnetic field
2. Good magnetic shielding effect
3. High power density
4. Light weight
5. Small in size

Neodymium magnets play a very important role in the renewable energy market. So we believe this halbach motor could find a broad range of industrial and automation applications, from electric vehicles, aerospace, independent power generation to other occasions.

China Magnets Source Material Limited has a wealth of experience in permanent magnet industry over 20 year. Please feel free to contact us if you need permanent magnets, halbach array magnets or motor rotor assembly.

We know how to:

1. Select the right magnets
2. Choose the suitable coating

Insert Moudling / Over Moulding / Injection Molded (Plastic) Sintered Neodymium Magnets

Is it possible to insert mould a sintered neodymium magnet inside a plastic injection moulded part?

If you’re looking for an assembly of round magnets into an ABS housing, then you’ll LOVE this article.

What technique do you use to stick the magnet on the ABS part?

One solution is using 3M double sided tape, Loctite glue s or AB glue. But this is not a fixed component. Even you try many different glues and sometimes it will fail.



If you need permanent fixation, the other good solution is INSERT MOUDING. The sintered NdFeB magnet manufacturerd by injection molded technique is also called plastic coated magnet. It is colorful, weatherproof and more durable than uncoated magnet or normal coated NiCuNi, Zn magnets, avoiding gluing the magnet as a secondary process. You may have a tooling charge (if a existing tool cannot be used or modified) and depending on the magnetic assembly, a magnetising fixture may be required as well.



Why overmolding would work with N42 or N45 grade magnet as I know the injection temperature of ABS is over 200°C ?

It is true that all magnets are affected by heat. And the maximum working temperature of sintered neodymium from N to AH series is among 80℃-220 ℃ which is lower than injection molding. That’s why, generally, when it comes to injection molded magnet, you’ve heard enough about bonded ndfeb magnet, samarium cobalt magnet and ferrite magnet for one lifetime.

Because of 250 degree celsius high temperature of the plastic mold, only these ferrite, smco and bonded ndfeb magnets which can work under higher temperature environment are suitable for injection molding manufacture. Why we insist on using sintered ndfeb magnet here even it’s hard to make: super power magnetic force is the most important factor and no other magnet in the world can take the place of sintered ndfeb magnet.



Okay, how N42 Sintered NdFeB magnet work here? 

When overmold process is fast, like about 10-40 seconds. This short time has few influence on magnetic force. Because the outside of the magnet expose all the heat but the inner volume may not get so hot. Meanwhile, you may have to choose a stronger magnet or higher working temp. Magnet than your original design to avoid any demagnetization during overmolding process.

All options you can choose for permanent SINTERED NDFEB magnet overmolding:

1. Overmold 80 ℃ sintered neodymium magnet (unmagnetized), and then magnetize the full component (depends on the size of assembly).
2. Overmold a standard 80℃ sintered NdFeB magnet (magnetized), and then fully re-charged the assembly (depends on the size of assembly).
3. Overmold a higher Hci NdFeB magnet (magnetised), but it cost more.
4. Put sintered NdFeB in plastic housing, add plastic cap, and then ultrasonic weld seal.

Motor Magnet of Mini 4WD

If you need a mini four-wheel drive (4WD) to go faster, it is necessary to refit it. motor is the core part of 4WD, there are two ways to refit 4WD motor: The first is to use a better original motor to replace the existing one, which provides less room for upgrading; the second, which is the most common, is the change of internal coils and magnets, such as converting a copper coil to a silver alloy coil or using a thinner wire coil to increase the number of coil turns; meanwhile using stronger magnets to increase speed.

The impacts of magnet performance on motor performance:
The strength of the torque is an important measurement index of motor performance, and magnet is the most important component which determines the motor torque. For a rotor, the stronger magnetic force, the greater the torque is; and the idle speed will be correspondingly lower, but the speed did not slow. Permanent magnets can be divided into weak and strong, low and high working temperature, small and big size. In general: strong magnetic force, motor idle speed will be lower, but large torque, so it is more suitable for multi-ramp competition; however at the same time, it is also more electricity waste. While weak magnetic force, high idle speed motor, but torque would be smaller, it is more suitable for multi-straight sprint, and power saving.

Mini 4WD Motor Magnet Description:
1. Rare earth magnet size: R9.6xL13xW14xT2.5mm
2. Permanent magnet plating: zinc, nickel or epoxy
3. Magnetization direction: through diameter on pair
