Neodymium pot magnets with countersunk hole screw-on

Special features of neodymium mounting magnets

Due to the embedding in a steel pot, the flux lines are directed downwards to the holding surface, which makes the magnetic force especially strong at direct contact with a counterpart. With a countersunk pot magnet, a correctly sized countersunk head screw fits flush into the pre-drilled hole. After fastening it to the ceiling or wall, you can attach ferromagnetic objects, such as metal plates or lamps, to the magnet and easily remove them if necessary. This has the advantage that all of the drill holes are hidden from view.

Please note: Neodymium magnets are brittle and can break if too much force is applied. Therefore, when screw-mounting these magnets, we recommend a maximum tightening torque of 2 Nm.

Maximum adhesive force: This requires the direct contact with a counterpart (e.g. steel plate). Even a small gap due to thin, painted or rough surfaces reduces it. The indicated adhesive force is a value calculated under perfect conditions. It is measured at a right angle to the holding surface, which might make a stronger magnet necessary if you use it on a wall as opposed to a ceiling.
The magnet has to hold a certain weight for your project? Contact us if you need help with that.

Rust: Our countersunk magnets have a nickel coating that somewhat protects them against corrosion. We recommend using them in dry indoor areas or purchasing ferrite pot magnets.
