Overview - Alnico Pocket Horse Shoe Magnets
Alnico Pocket Horse Shoe Magnets
Alnico Pocket Horseshoe Magnets are compact, high-performance permanent magnets designed for attracting, holding, and clamping ferrous materials in a wide range of applications. Manufactured from Alnico (aluminium-nickel-cobalt) alloy, these magnets offer excellent temperature stability, reliable magnetic strength, and long-term performance in a small, easy-to-handle format.
The classic U-shaped horseshoe design concentrates the magnetic field between the poles, delivering a focused and efficient magnetic pull compared with straight bar magnets. Their pocket-sized form makes them ideal for educational demonstrations, workshops, DIY projects, light-duty industrial use, and general magnetic attraction tasks.
Finished with a bright protective coating for improved durability and visibility, Alnico Pocket Horseshoe Magnets are practical, robust, and simple to use. Their compact size allows them to be easily carried, stored, and deployed wherever a small but effective magnetic tool is required.
Typical Applications
Alnico Pocket Horseshoe Magnets are commonly used for:
Educational and classroom demonstrations of magnetic principles
Holding and clamping lightweight ferrous objects
DIY, hobby, and maker projects
Workshop and light-duty industrial tasks
Sorting, positioning, or retrieving small steel components
Their versatility makes them suitable for environments where a compact magnet with reliable holding force is needed.
Why Choose Alnico Pocket Horseshoe Magnets
Alnico Pocket Horseshoe Magnets combine durable construction, concentrated magnetic performance, and high temperature resistance in a convenient pocket-sized design. The horseshoe shape enhances magnetic efficiency, while the stable Alnico material ensures consistent performance over time. These magnets are an excellent choice for users who require a small, dependable magnetic solution for demonstration, holding, or light-duty applications.
