Product Overview

This 32 mm Neodymium Magnetic Mounting Cup combines a powerful NdFeB rare earth magnet with a precision-machined steel cup to maximize holding force and durability. Designed with a countersunk mounting hole, it allows secure installation using a flat-head screw while delivering exceptional magnetic performance.

The steel cup concentrates the magnetic field onto the working surface, significantly increasing holding power compared to standard magnets. The cup also protects the magnet from chipping and mechanical damage, making it ideal for industrial, commercial, workshop, and DIY applications.

What Is a Neodymium Magnetic Cup?

A neodymium magnetic cup, also known as a mounting magnet or pot magnet, consists of a powerful neodymium magnet embedded inside a steel cup.

The steel housing focuses the magnetic field toward the contact surface, creating substantially greater holding force than an exposed magnet of similar size. This design also provides mechanical protection and allows the magnet to be mounted using screws, bolts, or hardware.

Magnetic cups are commonly used for mounting, positioning, securing, hanging, and retrieving metal objects.

How Strong Is This Magnetic Cup?

This 32 mm magnetic cup provides an estimated cup-to-cup pull force of approximately 110 lbs under ideal conditions.

Actual holding strength depends on:

  • Surface material

  • Steel thickness

  • Contact area

  • Mounting orientation

  • Air gap

  • Environmental conditions

For maximum holding force, use the magnetic cup against a clean, flat steel surface.

Common Questions About This Magnetic Cup

What is a magnetic cup used for?

Magnetic cups are commonly used for mounting, fastening, hanging, holding, and retrieving metal objects in industrial, commercial, and workshop environments.

Why is a magnetic cup stronger than a regular magnet?

The steel cup concentrates the magnetic field onto the working surface, increasing the effective holding force and protecting the magnet from damage.

What screw fits the countersunk hole?

This magnetic cup is designed for M4 or #6 flat-head screws. An M4 screw is included.

Can this magnetic cup be mounted permanently?

Yes. The countersunk hole allows secure installation with a flat-head screw or bolt.

Is the magnet protected against corrosion?

Yes. The magnet features a durable Nickel-Copper-Nickel triple-layer coating for improved corrosion resistance.

Can I use this outdoors?

Temporary outdoor use is acceptable. For long-term outdoor exposure, additional protection is recommended.

Is the 110 lb pull force guaranteed?

No. Pull force values are estimates based on ideal testing conditions. Actual results will vary depending on the application and mounting surface.
