Product Description
Neodymium Magnets N42 Block 2 in x 1 in x 1 in
N42 Block Magnets 2 in x 1 in x 1 in – Heavy-Duty Rare Earth Magnet for Industrial Holding and Magnetic Fixtures
Engineered for demanding industrial and heavy-duty applications, this N42 block magnet delivers extreme holding force in a durable, compact form. Its large size and high magnetic grade make it ideal for secure clamping, precision jigs, magnetic lifting systems, and custom fixtures requiring maximum strength.
Key Features:
- Heavy-Duty Rare Earth Magnet: 2" (L) x 1" (W) x 1" (T) block for robust applications requiring maximum surface contact and strength.
- High Strength N42 Grade: BrMax of 13,200 gauss, providing strong, reliable performance superior to N40, N38, and N35 grades.
- Extreme Pull Force: Capable of holding over 155 lbs under ideal conditions.
- Triple Coated: Nickel-Copper-Nickel plating offers excellent corrosion resistance for indoor and limited outdoor use. Extended outdoor exposure may require additional sealing or housing.
- Magnetized Through Thickness: North and south poles on the two 2"x1" surfaces for stable, high-surface contact alignment.
