Rare Earth Rods are strong permanent magnets made from rare earth elements, typically Neodymium (NdFeB). They offer exceptional magnetic strength, durability, and resistance to demagnetization.
Key Characteristics:
1. High Magnetic Field Strength: Up to 14,400 Gauss.
2. Small Size: Compact, cylindrical design.
3. Corrosion Resistance: Often coated with nickel, zinc, or chrome.
4. Temperature Stability: Retains magnetism up to 200 C (392 F).
Applications:
1. Industrial: Holding, lifting, and moving metal parts.
2. Craft and Hobby: Magnetic bases, jewelry, and models.
3. Scientific Research: Laboratory equipment and experiments.
4. Sensing and Detection: Position, proximity, and rotation sensors.
Types:
1. Neodymium (NdFeB)
2. Samarium Cobalt (SmCo)
3. Dysprosium (Dy)
Benefits:
1. Unparalleled magnetic strength.
2. Compact design.
3. Resistance to corrosion.
4. Long-lasting magnetism.
