Eclipse 816 Alnico Channel Magnet 101 Lb Pull Force

Product Description

The ECLIPSE 816 is a two-hole Alnico channel magnet designed for high-force holding, clamping, and fixturing applications in industrial and trade environments. Built with Grade 5 Alnico material, it delivers an average pull force of 101 pounds and a maximum pull force of 103.62 pounds. The magnet measures 3.25 inches wide, 3.125 inches deep, and 2.125 inches high, making it a compact yet powerful unit for precision mounting. Its 550 degrees C maximum operating temperature makes it suitable for elevated-heat environments where ceramic or rare-earth magnets may not be appropriate. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals are the typical end users.

This channel magnet is used in applications requiring reliable, high-strength magnetic holding across industrial machinery, fixtures, tooling setups, and equipment assembly. The two-hole mounting configuration allows for secure mechanical fastening to frames, plates, or housings. The 0.374-inch hole diameter accommodates standard fastener sizes used in industrial fabrication. Its Alnico 5 grade construction makes it well suited for environments with elevated ambient temperatures or where long-term magnetic stability is required without the risk of demagnetization from moderate heat exposure.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by industrial maintenance technicians or machinists using standard fasteners through the two mounting holes. Ensure the mating surface is clean, flat, and free of debris before seating the magnet to achieve rated pull force. Keep the magnet away from sensitive electronic components and pacemakers during handling. Consult applicable workplace safety guidelines when working with high-force permanent magnets.
