Eclipse E649/MSC Cylindrical Alnico Holding Magnet

Product Description

The ECLIPSE E649/MSC is a 2-pole cylindrical Alnico holding magnet engineered for reliable magnetic retention in industrial and trade applications. Measuring 1 inch in diameter and 1.5 inches in height, this compact magnet delivers an average pull force of 8.75 pounds and a maximum pull force of 17.5 pounds. It is non-insulated and rated for a maximum operating temperature of 428 degrees F, making it suitable for elevated-temperature environments. The 1/4-20 threaded mount hole allows for straightforward mechanical attachment to fixtures, jigs, or equipment assemblies. Electricians, industrial maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors typically specify this type of holding magnet for clamping, positioning, and retention tasks.

The E649/MSC is used in applications requiring a compact, high-retention cylindrical magnet with a defined mounting interface. Its Alnico construction provides stable magnetic performance across a wide temperature range, making it appropriate for both light industrial and trade-service environments where a threaded mounting point and repeatable pull force are required.

Installation Notes

Installation of holding magnets should be performed by qualified mechanical or electrical technicians familiar with magnetic retention hardware. Ensure all equipment is de-energized and secured before mounting. Use appropriately rated fasteners with the 1/4-20 mount hole and avoid exposing the magnet to temperatures exceeding its 428-degree-F rated maximum. Keep strong ferromagnetic materials and sensitive electronic components clear of the magnetic field during installation.
