Samarium Disc Magnet

Samarium Cobalt (SmCo) disc magnet is a type of rare-earth magnet that is shaped into a flat, circular form. These magnets are composed of an alloy of samarium and cobalt, offering a unique combination of high magnetic strength, exceptional temperature stability, and excellent resistance to corrosion. SmCo disc magnets are particularly valued in applications that require a compact form factor along with the ability to operate under high temperatures or in corrosive environments. These types of magnets only lose minute amounts of magnetism over time, making them essential in a huge range of industries. Samarium cobalt disc magnets are used in the design & manufacturing of weather station equipment.

They are commonly used in high performance motors, magnetic couplings and magnetic separators. These are brittle magnets and are prone to cracking and chipping. Samarium magnets can be used for high temperature applications where neodymium will not work.
