Eclipse M19176/MSC Alnico Pot Magnet 1/2 in 6-32 Thread

Product Description

The ECLIPSE M19176/MSC is an Alnico pot magnet designed for reliable holding and retrieval applications in industrial and trade environments. Built with an Alnico 5 magnet material grade, this pot magnet delivers an average pull force of 1.53 pounds and a maximum pull force of 3 pounds. The 6-32 threaded stud mount allows for straightforward attachment to fixtures, jigs, panels, and assemblies. Rated for a maximum operating temperature of 428 degrees F, this magnet maintains performance in elevated-temperature environments where ceramic or neodymium alternatives may not be suitable. Maintenance technicians, fabricators, and equipment assemblers are the typical users of this style of mounting magnet.

This pot magnet is suited for light-duty holding applications in manufacturing, HVAC equipment assembly, electrical panel work, and general shop use. Its compact 1/2-inch diameter and 3/4-inch height make it a practical choice where space is limited but a secure, threaded magnetic mount is required. The 6-32 thread is a common machine thread size, compatible with standard hardware in most trade and industrial assembly contexts.

Installation Notes

Installation of threaded pot magnets is typically performed by maintenance technicians or assemblers using standard hand tools sized for 6-32 machine thread hardware. Ensure the mating surface is clean, flat, and free of debris before seating the magnet to achieve rated pull force. Avoid exposing the magnet to impact or lateral shear loads beyond its rated capacity, as Alnico magnets can be brittle. De-energize or isolate any nearby sensitive electronic components before working with magnets in close proximity.
