Eclipse M19172/MSC Alnico Pot Magnet 0.72 Lb 3/8 in

Product Description

The ECLIPSE M19172/MSC is an Alnico pot magnet designed for secure holding and retrieval applications in industrial and trade environments. Built from Alnico 5 material, this compact magnet delivers an average pull force of 0.72 pounds and a maximum pull force of 1.4 pounds from a body measuring just 0.375 inches in diameter and 0.5 inches in height. The 6-32 threaded stud allows direct fastening to fixtures, jigs, or mounting surfaces. With a maximum operating temperature of 428 degrees F, it holds performance in elevated-heat environments where many magnet types would demagnetize. Electricians, machinists, and industrial technicians commonly specify this part for sensor mounting, positioning fixtures, and holding assemblies.

This magnet is suited for light-duty industrial holding tasks in both shop and field settings. Its small form factor and threaded mount make it practical for integration into custom fixtures, tooling boards, or equipment panels. The high-temperature rating makes it appropriate for installation near motors, control panels, or other heat-generating equipment where standard ceramic or neodymium magnets may not be appropriate. The single-unit packaging supports maintenance and repair replacement needs.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install Alnico pot magnet for industrial holding, mounting, and positioning applications requiring a 6-32 threaded fastener interface.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the magnet stud into a tapped hole or using a mating nut on the mounting surface. Ensure the mating surface is clean, flat, and free of debris to achieve rated pull force. Avoid exposing the magnet to impact loads or lateral shear beyond its rated capacity, as Alnico material is more brittle than other magnet grades. De-energize or isolate any adjacent electrical equipment before working in close proximity to sensitive electronic components.
