Ferrite Ring Magnet

A ceramic or ferrite ring magnet is a type of permanent magnet made from ferrite, a ceramic compound composed of iron oxide mixed with metallic elements such as barium (Ba) or strontium (Sr). These magnets are shaped in the form of a ring and are known for their excellent resistance to demagnetization, corrosion resistance, and cost-effectiveness. Ceramic ring magnets are made specifically for loudspeaker systems to crafts and toys and their sizes have evolved with demand from this market. However, they are also commonly used in magnetic rollers for separating applications and in the printing industry. They are also a vital component found in fast running conveyor systems in many manufacturing plants dealing with ferrous material. Ferrite magnets are a low-cost alternative to the more expensive (and powerful) neodymium magnet ranges.
