Rubber Coated Pot Magnet – 22mm x 10mm | M5 x 6mm Thread

The Rubber Coated Pot Magnet – 22mm x 10mm | M5 x 6mm Thread is a compact magnetic mounting and fixing solution featuring a 22mm diameter magnetic base, 10mm height and M5 x 6mm threaded connection. The protective rubber coating helps reduce direct metal-to-metal contact with the mounting surface while increasing friction and resistance to sliding.

Designed for removable and repositionable attachment to compatible ferromagnetic iron and steel surfaces, this rubber coated pot magnet can be integrated with compatible M5 threaded components for use in fixtures, signage, displays, equipment, sensors, mounting systems and custom assemblies.

The combination of a compact 22mm magnetic base, rubber-coated working surface and threaded mounting point makes this pot magnet particularly useful where installation space is limited or where a less abrasive magnetic contact surface is preferred.

Compact 22mm x 10mm Magnetic Base

This rubber coated pot magnet measures 22mm in diameter x 10mm in height, providing a compact format for space-conscious magnetic mounting applications.

Its small footprint can be useful for:

• Compact fixtures
• Small equipment
• Sensors
• Display components
• Product assemblies
• Furniture components
• Custom brackets
• OEM designs

The 22mm diameter and 10mm height describe the physical dimensions of the magnetic base and should not be interpreted as a magnetic pull-force or load-capacity rating.

M5 x 6mm Threaded Connection

The magnet incorporates an M5 x 6mm threaded connection for integration with compatible mounting hardware and components.

Depending on the application, compatible threaded components may include:

• Bolts
• Studs
• Brackets
• Fixtures
• Handles
• Equipment components
• Custom fabricated parts

Verify the thread type and available engagement before installation. Avoid overtightening or forcing incompatible threaded components into the magnet.

Rubber Coating for Increased Friction

The rubber coating provides an interface between the magnetic assembly and target steel.

Potential benefits include:

• Increased friction
• Improved resistance to sliding
• Reduced direct metal-to-metal contact
• Additional protection around the magnetic assembly
• Reduced likelihood of marking suitable finished surfaces during normal use

The increased friction can be particularly useful in vertical or angled mounting applications where the load may encourage the magnet to slide across the steel surface.

Surface Protection

The rubber coating can help protect suitable mounting surfaces, but it does not guarantee against scratches or other surface damage.

Metal filings, grit or other debris trapped between the rubber and mounting surface can cause marking.

For sensitive or finished surfaces:

• Clean the rubber magnetic face before use
• Clean the target steel
• Remove trapped ferrous particles
• Avoid dragging the magnet across the surface
• Test compatibility where surface appearance is important

How Does a Rubber Coated Pot Magnet Work?

A pot-style magnet uses a magnetic assembly designed to concentrate attraction towards its primary working face.

When the rubber-covered working face is placed against compatible ferromagnetic steel, the magnet attracts the target surface and creates a removable mounting point.

The rubber layer introduces a small physical separation between the internal magnetic system and the steel target, but also provides additional friction that can improve resistance to sideways movement.

Actual performance therefore depends on the design of the magnetic assembly and the conditions of the installation.

Removable Magnetic Mounting

This pot magnet can create an attachment point on compatible steel without permanently modifying the supporting surface.

Depending on the application, this may reduce the need to:

• Drill mounting holes
• Weld brackets
• Install permanent anchors
• Apply adhesive to the steel surface

The magnet can also be repositioned as equipment, display or fixture requirements change.

Magnetic Holding Performance

Actual magnetic holding performance depends on multiple factors, including:

• Target steel thickness
• Steel composition
• Surface flatness
• Contact area
• Rubber thickness
• Paint and coatings
• Rust
• Dirt and contamination
• Mounting orientation
• Load direction
• Vibration
• Movement
• Leverage from the attached component

No specific pull force has been supplied for this product, so holding capacity should not be inferred solely from its 22mm diameter.

Direct Pull vs Shear Force

Magnetic performance varies according to the direction of the applied load.

Direct pull occurs when force attempts to separate the magnet perpendicular to the steel surface.

Shear force occurs when a load acts parallel to the surface and encourages the magnet to slide.

The rubber coating increases friction and can help resist sliding; however, practical vertical or shear holding capacity should not be assumed to equal direct-pull performance.

Leverage from Attached Components

A component connected to the M5 thread may extend away from the magnetic base and introduce leverage into the magnetic connection.

Practical holding can be reduced by:

• Long brackets
• Sideways forces
• Angled loads
• Vibration
• Shock loading
• Rotational forces
• Dynamic movement

The complete assembly should be assessed under realistic operating conditions rather than relying on magnet size alone.

Compatible Target Materials

This pot magnet is intended for mounting to ferromagnetic iron and steel.

Compatible targets may include:

• Mild steel
• Iron
• Magnetic steel plates
• Steel machinery
• Equipment frames
• Ferromagnetic brackets

It will not effectively attach to aluminium, copper, brass, plastic, timber or glass.

Many stainless steel grades may also provide weak or negligible magnetic attraction and should be tested before use.

Industrial and OEM Applications

The compact dimensions and threaded connection make this rubber coated pot magnet suitable for integration into a variety of manufactured products and industrial systems.

Potential users include:

• Equipment manufacturers

Its compact size is particularly useful where a larger magnetic base would be difficult to accommodate.

Installation Considerations

Before installation:

1. Confirm the target surface is ferromagnetic.
2. Clean the rubber magnetic face and target steel.
3. Position the complete working face flat against the surface.
4. Verify compatibility with the M5 x 6mm thread.
5. Avoid overtightening the attached component.
6. Apply the intended load gradually.
7. Check for sliding, rotation or movement.
8. Consider vibration, leverage and dynamic loads.

Where accidental detachment could create a hazard, suitable secondary mechanical retention should be incorporated.

Please Note

This product is a Rubber Coated Pot Magnet measuring 22mm in diameter x 10mm high with an M5 x 6mm threaded connection.

No specific magnetic material or grade, pull force, Gauss rating, rubber composition, coating thickness, dimensional tolerance or maximum operating temperature has been supplied and these specifications should not be assumed.

Actual magnetic holding performance depends on target steel thickness and composition, surface condition, contact area, rubber thickness, mounting orientation, load direction, vibration and leverage.

The rubber coating helps increase friction and reduce direct metal-to-metal contact but does not guarantee protection against scratching, particularly if grit or metal particles become trapped between the surfaces.

This magnet should not be treated as certified lifting equipment or used as the sole means of supporting people, safety-critical equipment or hazardous overhead loads. Use appropriate secondary retention where accidental detachment could cause injury or damage.

Keep strong magnets away from children, pacemakers and other medical implants, magnetic storage media and sensitive electronic equipment.
