Eclipse 831NF Alnico Pot Magnet 3 Lb 11/16 Inch Threaded

Product Description

The ECLIPSE 831NF is a threaded-hole alnico pot magnet designed for holding, clamping, and fixturing applications in industrial and trade environments. Built from mild steel with an Alnico 5 grade magnet core, this unit delivers an average pull force of 3 pounds and a maximum pull force of 5.8 pounds from a compact 11/16-inch diameter body. The magnet measures 5/8 inches in height and features a 10-32 threaded hole mount for direct fastener attachment. It is rated for continuous use up to 428 degrees F, making it suitable for applications near heat sources where standard ferrite magnets would degrade. The unit ships individually and is commonly used by maintenance technicians, machine builders, and fabricators.

This pot magnet is well suited for light-duty holding and mounting tasks in manufacturing, HVAC equipment assembly, electrical panel work, and general mechanical service. The threaded hole mount allows secure, repositionable installation without adhesives. The high-temperature Alnico 5 core maintains magnetic performance in environments that exceed the limits of ceramic or standard ferrite magnets. Its compact profile fits into confined spaces where larger magnetic assemblies are impractical.

Key Features

• Average pull force of 3 pounds; maximum pull force of 5.8 pounds
• Alnico 5 grade core with 428 degrees F maximum operating temperature
• 10-32 threaded hole mount for direct fastener or stud attachment
• Mild steel pot housing concentrates magnetic flux for improved holding strength
• Compact 11/16-inch diameter and 5/8-inch height for tight-space installation
• Red finish for easy visual identification in tooling and fixture setups

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded-hole alnico pot magnet suitable for general industrial holding and fixturing applications requiring a 10-32 threaded mount interface.

Installation Notes

Installation requires only standard hand tools to thread a mating fastener or stud into the 10-32 hole. Ensure the mating surface is clean, flat, and free of paint, rust, or debris to achieve rated pull force. Demagnetization can occur if the magnet is struck sharply or exposed to a competing strong magnetic field, so handle with care during installation. Consult applicable workplace safety guidelines when using magnets near sensitive electronic components or ferrous swarf.
