What are Alnico Magnets?

Alnico magnets are permanent magnets made from an alloy of aluminum, nickel, cobalt, iron, copper, and sometimes titanium. They were the strongest type of magnet before the development of rare earth magnets and are known for their high-temperature stability and good corrosion resistance.

Advantages

  • High Temperature Stability: Can operate at high temperatures with excellent stability.
  • Good Corrosion Resistance: Less prone to oxidation compared to other magnets.
  • Durability: Retain magnetic properties over a wide range of temperatures.
  • Versatility: Suitable for various applications, including high-performance environments.

Features

  • Hard and Brittle: Not suitable for drilling or conventional machining.
  • High Magnetic Properties: Strong magnetic field and good thermal stability.
  • Resistance to Demagnetization: Maintain magnetic properties over time.
  • Magnetization: Efficient when magnetized after assembly in the final magnetic circuit.

Applications

Alnico magnets are used in various applications, including:
  • Guitar pickups
  • Magnetos
  • Motors
  • Separators
  • Sensors
  • Security systems
  • Relays
  • Grinding and tolerance applications

The Solutions
We Offer

Alnico Cow Magnets

If you’re interested in cow magnets for science experiments or educational use, please visit our sister company, Dowling Magnets.

Alnico Horseshoe Magnets

Alnico horseshoe magnets provide a compact, high power magnetic source, and are used for traction, lifting, sorting, clamping and retrieval. They are supplied with ground pole faces, painted and with metal keepers for storage and to help retain magnetic strength. Maximum operating temperature is approximately 1000°F.

Alnico Button Magnets

Alnico button magnets are cylindrical type holding magnets. The north and south poles are on the same plane and separated by a slot gap. They have convenient mounting holes. They are good for use as work holding devices for welding, wood cutting, sign making and other applications, or for reed switch operation. Each button magnet includes a metal keeper for storage and to help retain magnetic strength.

Alnico Channel Magnets

Alnico channel magnets can be used for various holding applications and also for removal of tramp iron from chutes carrying grains, plastics, glass, minerals & other materials conveyed in powder or granular form.

Alnico Rotor Magnets

Alnico rotor magnets are designed with multiple poles; each pole alternates in polarity. The hole in the rotor is designed for mounting onto shafts. They are excellent for use in synchronous motors, dynamos and air turbine generators.

Alnico Rod Magnets

Alnico rod magnets can have very strong flux output and are stable at high temperatures.

Alnico Bar Magnets

Alnico bar magnets offer excellent temperature stability, high residual induction, and relatively high energies.
