22mm Diameter x 6mm High Magnetic Body

The magnetic body measures 22mm in diameter x 6mm high, providing a compact, low-profile mounting footprint.

This geometry can be useful where mounting space is limited or where the magnetic attachment needs to remain relatively unobtrusive.

Potential installations include:

• Equipment housings
• Display systems
• Fixtures
• Brackets
• Sensor mounts
• Signs
• Lighting accessories
• Furniture components
• Custom mechanical assemblies

Always verify available installation space and clearance around the threaded connection before assembly.

M4 Male Thread with 6mm Thread Length

This pot magnet incorporates an M4 male threaded connection with a supplied length of 6mm.

The male thread provides a convenient mechanical interface for attaching compatible:

• Brackets
• Plates
• Holders
• Fixtures
• Sensors
• Signs
• Equipment accessories
• Custom components

Confirm the mating component uses a compatible M4 female thread and provides appropriate thread engagement.

Do not overtighten the threaded connection. The magnet should function as the magnetic mounting component rather than being subjected to unnecessary mechanical stress.

The exact thread pitch has not been separately supplied, so compatibility should be confirmed where thread specifications are critical.

Neodymium Iron Boron Rare Earth Magnet

The magnetic element is manufactured from Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB), a high-performance rare earth permanent magnetic material.

Neodymium magnets are commonly used in compact magnetic mounting systems because they provide high magnetic performance relative to their physical dimensions.

This makes neodymium pot magnets useful where:

• Installation space is restricted
• A compact magnetic mount is preferred
• Removable attachment is required
• Components need to be repositioned
• Drilling or permanently modifying the support steel is undesirable

The specific neodymium magnetic grade has not been supplied and should not be assumed.

How a Neodymium Pot Magnet Works

A pot magnet incorporates a permanent magnet into a housing designed to create a practical magnetic mounting assembly.

The pot or housing helps direct and concentrate magnetic flux towards the working face, improving the effectiveness of the magnetic circuit when attached to a suitable ferromagnetic surface.

This construction also provides mechanical support around the magnetic element.

Practical magnetic performance still depends on the complete magnetic circuit, target steel and installation conditions.

Protective Rubber Case

The rubber case provides several practical advantages compared with an exposed metal magnetic mounting surface.

The rubber can help:

• Reduce direct metal-to-surface contact
• Protect compatible finished surfaces
• Reduce scratching during normal careful use
• Increase friction
• Improve resistance to sliding
• Provide additional protection around the magnetic assembly

This can be particularly useful when mounting accessories onto painted steel, coated equipment, cabinets or other finished ferromagnetic surfaces.

Surface protection cannot be guaranteed. Dirt, metal particles, grit or other abrasive contamination trapped between the magnet and target surface can still cause marking or scratching.

Always clean both surfaces before installation where the finish is important.

Increased Resistance to Sliding

Rubber does more than protect the mating surface. It also increases friction between the magnetic mount and the target surface.

This can be particularly beneficial in vertical or shear-loaded applications, where the applied load tends to make the magnet slide rather than pull directly away from the steel.

Actual resistance to sliding depends on factors including:

• Rubber condition
• Surface texture
• Target material
• Applied load
• Installation orientation
• Contact area
• Contamination
• Vibration
• Mechanical leverage

Do not assume that a direct-pull rating, where one is available, represents vertical or shear holding capacity.

Removable Magnetic Mounting

One of the main advantages of a male threaded pot magnet is the ability to create a removable and repositionable mounting point on compatible steel.

Potential applications include attaching:

• Signs
• Sensors
• Lights
• Brackets
• Fixtures
• Displays
• Equipment accessories
• Custom components

This can reduce the need to drill, weld or permanently alter the supporting steel surface.

The attached component can also be repositioned as requirements change, provided the target surface remains magnetically compatible.

Mounting Sensors and Equipment

The compact 22mm magnetic base and M4 male thread can be useful for mounting appropriately sized equipment and components.

Potential uses include:

• Sensors
• Indicators
• Small instruments
• Inspection equipment
• Lighting accessories
• Displays
• Signage
• Measurement equipment
• Prototype devices

For applications involving movement, vibration or valuable equipment, evaluate whether secondary mechanical retention is required.

Magnetic Performance

Practical holding performance depends on factors including:

• Neodymium grade
• Internal magnet dimensions
• Pot construction
• Rubber thickness
• Target steel composition
• Target steel thickness
• Available contact area
• Surface flatness
• Air gaps
• Installation orientation
• Load direction
• Mechanical leverage

No specific pull force or magnetic flux density in Gauss has been supplied for this product and these values should not be inferred from its dimensions alone.

Rubber Case and Magnetic Air Gap

The rubber case creates a protective layer between the magnetic assembly and target surface.

This provides useful surface protection and friction, but it also creates separation within the magnetic circuit.

Magnetic attraction generally decreases as the distance between a magnet and ferromagnetic target increases.

The finished design therefore balances:

• Magnetic attraction
• Surface protection
• Friction
• Resistance to sliding
• Practical durability

Additional layers such as thick paint, coatings, protective films or dirt can further reduce magnetic performance.

Direct Pull vs Shear Force

Magnetic holding depends significantly on load direction.

Direct pull occurs when the magnet is pulled perpendicular to the steel surface.

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

In vertical mounting applications, practical holding can be influenced by:

• Surface friction
• Rubber condition
• Weight of the attached component
• Position of the load
• Mechanical leverage
• Vibration
• Surface coatings

The rubber case can increase friction and help resist sliding, but actual holding should be tested under real installation conditions.

Mechanical Leverage

Components attached to the M4 thread can generate leverage against the magnetic base.

For example, a long bracket or accessory projecting away from the surface may create a greater separating force at the magnet than a compact component mounted close to the magnetic face.

When designing an assembly, consider:

• Weight of the attached component
• Distance of the load from the magnet
• Installation orientation
• Vibration
• Dynamic loading
• Potential impact

Keep loads close to the magnetic mounting surface where practical.

Compatible Target Materials

This neodymium pot magnet is designed to attract suitable ferromagnetic materials, including:

• Mild steel
• Iron
• Magnetic steel
• Compatible ferromagnetic equipment surfaces

It will not effectively attach magnetically to inherently non-magnetic materials such as:

• Aluminium
• Copper
• Brass
• Plastic
• Timber
• Glass

Many stainless steel grades may also be weakly magnetic or non-magnetic.

Test the actual target surface before relying on magnetic attachment.

Target Steel Thickness

Magnetic performance can be affected by the thickness and composition of the target steel.

Very thin steel may not provide an optimal magnetic circuit and can reduce practical holding performance.

For applications where magnetic holding is important, test the magnet using the actual:

• Steel type
• Steel thickness
• Surface coating
• Installation orientation
• Load

This provides a more realistic assessment than relying on magnet dimensions alone.

Neodymium Pot Magnets vs Standard Neodymium Magnets

A standard neodymium magnet is generally supplied as an exposed magnetic component intended for integration into another product or assembly.

A pot magnet combines the magnet with a housing designed to provide a more practical mounting system and help concentrate the magnetic field towards the working face.

This male threaded version adds an M4 mechanical attachment point, while the rubber case provides additional surface protection and friction.

This combination makes the product particularly useful as a ready-to-integrate removable magnetic mounting component.

Permanent Magnetic Operation

This male thread neodymium pot magnet uses permanent magnetic material.

It requires:

• No electricity
• No batteries
• No charging
• No external power supply

The magnetic attachment remains continuously active during normal use.

Keep fingers clear of pinch points when installing or repositioning the magnetic mount.

To help protect the rubber case and target surface:

• Clean the contact surfaces before installation
• Remove trapped steel particles and grit
• Avoid dragging the magnet unnecessarily across finished surfaces
• Do not exceed the mechanical capability of the threaded connection
• Avoid excessive tightening
• Inspect the rubber for damage during ongoing use

Keep neodymium magnets an appropriate distance from:

• Pacemakers
• Implanted medical devices
• Magnetic storage media
• Magnetic cards
• Sensitive electronic equipment

Keep magnets securely away from babies and young children.
