Alnico Horseshoe Magnet

Alnico horseshoe magnets provide a compact, high power magnetic source, and are used for traction, lifting, sorting, clamping and retrieval. They are supplied with ground pole faces, painted and with metal keepers for storage and to help retain magnetic strength. Maximum operating temperature is approximately 1000°F.

An Alnico horseshoe magnet is a type of permanent magnet that is made from an alloy of aluminium (Al), nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), and often includes copper (Cu) and sometimes titanium (Ti). This type of magnet is shaped like a horseshoe, which is designed to maximize the magnet’s strength by bringing the two magnetic poles close together, creating a strong magnetic field between them.
