Neodymium Cylinder Magnet - 6mm x 12mm | Gold Coating | N52 | Diametrically Magnetised

Magnetic Product Description: This popular rare earth cylinder has a diameter of 6mm and a height of 12mm. It is an N52 grade rare earth magnet. It is Diametrically Magnetised. It is identified by the AMF magnet part number C-D6H12-N52GD.

Uses for our Rare Earth cylinder magnets: Neodymium cylinder magnets are characterised by the narrow and penetrating magnetic field that is emitted from the poles present at each side. This feature is put to use in many applications of a technical nature where they are sought after for their strength and reduced lateral size.

Permanent magnets do not require any external power source and operate independently, this makes them particularly well suited to switch mechanisms. Unlike mechanical switches, magnetic switches have hardly any moving parts that can break down over time or with extensive use. Switch mechanisms, alarms and other safety systems are all products that use magnetic power of various strengths, sizes and depths appropriate to the particular device.

This rod magnet has a Gold coating which provides superior protection against oxidation and corrosion caused by moisture exposure. This coating helps achieve longevity of the product as magnets can otherwise be prone to degrading over time in humid environments. Gold coated magnets are still susceptible to rust when exposed to the elements or damage from their environment. If you need to ensure that your gold magnet does not rust, you may want to consider applying a sealant which will extend the lifespan of the coating, but may reduce the pull force.
