Eclipse M19173/MSC Alnico Pot Magnet 0.78 Lb Pull 3/8 in

Product Description

The ECLIPSE M19173/MSC is an Alnico pot magnet designed for holding and mounting applications that require reliable magnetic force in high-temperature environments. Built from Alnico 5 material, this compact magnet delivers an average pull force of 0.78 pounds and a maximum pull force of 1.5 pounds. The 6-32 threaded stud allows for direct fastening to fixtures, tooling, or assemblies. At just 3/8 inch in diameter and 3/4 inch high, it fits in tight spaces where larger magnets cannot. The 428 degrees F maximum operating temperature makes it suitable for industrial settings that exceed the limits of standard ceramic or neodymium magnets. Installers in manufacturing, tooling, and instrumentation work are the primary users of this part.

This pot magnet is used in industrial and commercial applications where a small, threaded magnetic mount is needed. Typical uses include sensor positioning, fixture holding, door latching, and equipment mounting on ferrous surfaces. The threaded stud simplifies integration into custom assemblies and jigs. Its high-temperature tolerance expands its suitability to applications near motors, furnaces, or other heat-generating equipment where standard magnets would degrade.

Key Features

• Alnico 5 magnet material provides stable magnetic output at elevated temperatures up to 428 degrees F
• Average pull force of 0.78 pounds with a maximum pull force of 1.5 pounds
• 6-32 threaded stud for direct mechanical attachment to assemblies or fixtures
• Compact form factor: 3/8 inch diameter and 3/4 inch height for use in confined spaces
• Pot magnet housing concentrates flux at the contact face for improved holding efficiency

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded Alnico pot magnet for general industrial and instrumentation mounting applications on ferrous surfaces.

Installation Notes

Thread engagement should be appropriate for the stud size; use a 6-32 tapped hole or mating hardware. Ensure the mounting surface is clean, flat, and ferrous to achieve rated pull force. Avoid shock loading or lateral sliding forces, which can reduce holding strength and damage the magnet face. This part is typically installed by maintenance technicians, toolmakers, or instrumentation specialists using standard hand tools.
