Ceramic Magnets
Ceramic magnets are the lowest-cost hard permanent magnets available today. They are made from a combination of iron oxide and strontium carbonate, which is why they are also known as ferrite magnets.
What Are Ceramic Magnets?
Adams Magnetic Products supplies cost-effective and versatile stock or custom ceramic magnets, ideal for a wide range of applications due to their excellent magnetization abilities, resistance to demagnetization, and good magnetic strength.
