Eclipse E879-RB Center Mount Ceramic Fixture Magnet

Product Description

The ECLIPSE E879-RB is a center mount ceramic fixture magnet designed for secure, reliable holding in light-duty mounting and fixturing applications. The ceramic magnet core is enclosed in a steel housing that focuses magnetic flux and protects the magnet element from chipping or breakage. At a maximum pull force of 4 kg and a compact footprint of approximately 0.978 inches in length and 0.98 inches in width, this unit is suited for space-constrained fixture designs. It is rated for use up to 120 degrees F. Electricians, millwrights, fixture fabricators, and maintenance technicians commonly install this type of magnet in control panel doors, access hatches, jigs, and light fixtures.

The E879-RB fits residential and light commercial applications where a low-profile, center mount holding magnet is required. It is a single-unit component typically used in cabinetry latching, equipment covers, display fixtures, and small access panels. The center mount configuration allows fastening through a central hole, keeping the magnet face flush against the mating surface for consistent pull force.

Key Features

• Center mount fixture style for direct through-bolt or screw installation
• Ceramic magnet material provides stable holding force across typical indoor operating temperatures
• Steel housing focuses flux and protects the ceramic core from impact damage
• Maximum pull force of 4 kg suitable for light-duty latching and retention tasks
• Compact dimensions — approximately 0.978 inches long and 0.98 inches wide — fit tight spaces
• Rated to 120 degrees F maximum operating temperature

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install center mount ceramic fixture magnet for light-duty fixturing, latching, and retention applications requiring a steel-housed ceramic magnet in a compact form factor.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or fixture fabricators using standard hand tools. Ensure the mating steel plate or target surface is clean and flat before mounting to achieve rated pull force. Power down or de-energize any associated electrical enclosure before installing or removing magnets in live panel applications. Avoid grinding or machining the ceramic core, as ceramic magnets are brittle and will fracture under mechanical stress.
