Ferrite Disc Magnet - 18mm x 8mm

Ferrite Disc Magnet - 18mm x 8mm

Robust, reliable, and cost-effective, this Ferrite Disc Magnet measures 18mm in diameter x 8mm in thickness and is manufactured from high-quality ferrite magnetic material. With its increased thickness, this permanent magnet offers enhanced magnetic volume and dependable holding performance, making it ideal for industrial, commercial, educational, and DIY applications.

Ferrite magnets are widely used across a broad range of industries due to their excellent resistance to corrosion, oxidation, moisture, and demagnetisation. Unlike neodymium magnets, ferrite magnets require no protective coating, making them a maintenance-free solution that performs reliably in both indoor and outdoor environments.

Magnetised through the 8mm thickness (axially magnetised), this ferrite disc magnet generates a consistent magnetic field across its flat circular faces. Its combination of diameter and thickness makes it suitable for magnetic catches, workshop fixtures, product assembly, displays, educational equipment, and general-purpose holding applications where durability and affordability are key considerations.

Please Note

Ferrite magnets are hard and durable but can be brittle if dropped or subjected to impact. While ferrite magnets generally produce lower magnetic strength than neodymium magnets, they offer excellent corrosion resistance, long service life, and exceptional value for money. Keep away from children, pacemakers, sensitive electronic devices, and magnetic storage media. Holding strength will vary depending on the application and the characteristics of the steel surface being attracted.
