Product Overview

 

SmCo ring magnets maintain stable magnetic output in high-temperature environments where standard Neodymium grades experience irreversible flux loss. Composed of Samarium and Cobalt (1:5 and 2:17 alloy structures), these permanent magnets operate reliably up to 350°C with low thermal coefficients.


Golds-Magnets sintered SmCo ring magnets built to engineering drawings via induction melting, jet milling, magnetic field compaction, and vacuum sintering.

FAQ

 

 

Q: Are SmCo ring magnets brittle during installation?

A: Yes. Low mechanical tensile strength requires careful handling, mechanical clearance design, or non-ferrous retaining sleeves.

Q: Do SmCo ring magnets require plating for oxidation protection?

A: No, due to high inherent corrosion resistance. Plating is optional for cleanroom particle containment or specific assembly needs.

Q: What is the minimum inner diameter achievable?

A: Inner diameters down to 1.5 mm are achievable via core drilling and wire EDM, subject to wall width constraints.

Q: How are batch variations controlled?

A: Every sintering lot undergoes random sample testing via hysteresis graphs before shipment.
