Product Description
N52 Neodymium Magnets 1/2 in x 1/8 in Rare Earth Discs
Neodymium Magnets N52 1/2 in x 1/8 in Disc – High-Strength Rare Earth Magnet for Compact Precision Applications
Engineered for powerful holding force in a compact form, this N52 magnet offers unmatched strength for its size, making it ideal for precise electronic assemblies, sensor systems, and hobby or industrial projects requiring high pull force in tight spaces.
Key Features:
- Compact High-Strength Disc: 0.5-inch diameter with 0.125-inch thickness provides a small footprint while delivering powerful holding capacity.
- Super Strong N52 Grade: Delivers BrMax of 14,800 Gauss, the highest available in standard neodymium grades for maximum magnetic performance.
- Approx. 8 lbs Pull Force: Pull force under ideal conditions (smooth, flat, uncoated steel). In practical use, expect lower performance based on materials and setup.
- Triple Coated: Nickel-Copper-Nickel plating for excellent durability and corrosion resistance.
- Magnetized Through Thickness: North and south poles on flat surfaces for stable contact and precise alignment.
- Tight Tolerance: Manufactured to +/- 0.002 inch for reliable integration in engineering projects.
- Max Operating Temperature: 176°F (80°C): Suitable for most indoor and light industrial applications without risk of demagnetization.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How strong is this N52 compared to others?
N52 is the strongest standard grade for neodymium magnets, providing maximum pull force in the smallest possible size.
What affects real-world holding strength?The actual pull depends on metal thickness, contact surface smoothness, angle, and coatings like paint or powder.
Can I use this magnet for electronics and sensors?
Yes, but ensure clearances are adequate to prevent interference or accidental attraction to sensitive components.
How should I mount this magnet?
Use epoxy adhesives or secure in a recessed fixture for flush mounting. Handle with care to avoid pinching fingers or chipping the magnet during handling.
Is this magnet resistant to corrosion?
Yes, the Nickel-Copper-Nickel coating provides excellent corrosion resistance for most indoor and controlled environments.
Extreme Magnetic Strength in a Compact Design
Whether you're prototyping a tech product or working on a compact mechanical assembly, this N52 neodymium disc magnet delivers consistent, powerful results where space and strength both matter.
