Common Questions About This Magnet
How much weight can this magnet hold?
This magnet provides approximately 20 lbs of pull force under ideal conditions. Actual holding capacity depends on the surface material, steel thickness, and application design.
Is N52 stronger than N42?
Yes. N52 magnets provide significantly greater magnetic energy and holding power than N42 magnets of the same dimensions.
Can this magnet be used outdoors?
The Nickel-Copper-Nickel coating offers excellent corrosion resistance, but additional protection is recommended for prolonged outdoor exposure.
Can it rust?
The protective nickel coating helps resist corrosion; however, moisture exposure and coating damage can eventually lead to rust.
What direction is it magnetized?
This magnet is magnetized through the 1/4-inch thickness, with the north and south poles located on the 3/4" x 1/2" faces.
