Mounting Magnets (Pot Magnets/Cup Magnets)

A Mounting Magnet is a permanent magnet encased in a steel shell, which is sometimes called a pot or a cup, hence it also called as “Pot Magnet” or “Cup Magnet“. These magnetic assemblies are built with neodymium disc magnets embedded in a steel pot. The steel casing creates a strong vertical magnetic pull force (especially on a flat iron or steel surface), concentrating the magnetic force and directing it to the contact surface. Pot magnets are magnetized on one side and the other side can be fitted with screws, hooks and fasteners to fixed products.

ALB Materials Inc supply several types mounting magnets(A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and R). Below is the shape and product list.

Metric Coarse Thread

According to ISO965

All Dimensions in mm unless otherwise stated.

Tolerances: Male Thread 6g    Female Thread: 6h

The “M” designation for metric screws indicates the nominal outer diameter of the screw thread, in millimetres (e.g., an M6 screw has a nominal outer diameter of 6 millimetres).
