📝 Description

We specialize in providing a diverse selection of cylindrical and bar permanent magnets. Our offerings cater to a wide array of applications, ensuring optimal actuation distances are consistently achieved. These magnets are meticulously designed to meet the stringent requirements of critical actuation distance applications.

At our disposal are five sizes of cylindrical and rectangular magnets, each magnetized longitudinally for superior performance, as depicted in our drawings. What sets our magnets apart is their narrow tolerance bands for strength variation within each batch, guaranteeing that they reliably meet your precise actuation distance specifications.

Our magnets are crafted with high-grade materials to ensure durability and efficiency in reed switch applications. They are engineered to provide stable magnetic fields essential for consistent operation, with precision to deliver optimal magnetic flux density, crucial for reliable actuation in various environmental conditions.

We adhere to industry-leading standards to deliver magnets that not only meet but exceed performance expectations, ensuring reliability and longevity in every application.
