Arc Magnets FAQs

What are arc magnets used for?

Arc magnets are commonly used in electric motors, generators, and magnetic bearings due to their ability to fit snugly around cylindrical objects. They provide strong and stable magnetic fields necessary for efficient operation in these applications.

What sizes are available and can they be customised ?

Here at Magnet Store we stock a number of off the shelf magnets that can be purchased in full arrays or individual segments. However, if you require a specific size please get in touch and we can custom manufacture this for you. Arc magnets can be customized in terms of size, shape, and magnetic strength to meet specific application requirements. Customizations are often necessary for specialized industrial, scientific, or technological applications.

How are arc magnets made?

Arc magnets are typically made from neodymium, iron, and boron (NdFeB). The materials are sintered and then magnetized to create a strong magnetic field. The curved shape is achieved through precise machining and shaping processes. However if a different material is required Magnet Store can custom manufacture this. 

 

What are the advantages of using arc magnets?

The main advantages include their ability to fit curved surfaces, strong magnetic force, high efficiency in motors and generators, and their suitability for applications requiring precise magnetic fields.

What are the typical dimensions of arc magnets?

Arc magnets come in a variety of dimensions, typically specified by the inner and outer radius, arc length, and thickness. The dimensions can be tailored to fit specific applications, from small precision devices to large industrial machinery.

What are the temperature limitations of arc magnets?

Neodymium arc magnets have a maximum operating temperature range of 80°C to 200°C, depending on their grade. High-temperature grades are available for applications requiring operation at elevated temperatures. If you require an arc magnet that can withstand a higher temperature than 80°C please get in touch and we can custom manufacture this for you.
