Eclipse M19178/MSC Alnico Pot Magnet 5/8 in 10-24 Thread

Product Description

The ECLIPSE M19178/MSC is an Alnico pot magnet designed for holding, clamping, and fixturing applications in industrial and trade settings. Built from Alnico 5 magnetic material, this magnet delivers an average pull force of 1.19 pounds and a maximum pull force of 2.3 pounds from a compact 5/8-inch diameter body that stands 0.5 inches high. The 10-24 threaded stud allows direct mounting to fixtures, jigs, and assemblies without additional hardware. With a maximum operating temperature of 428 degrees F, it performs reliably in elevated-heat environments. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install this part where a small, permanent-magnet hold point is needed in a thermally demanding location.

This pot magnet suits light-duty holding and latching tasks in manufacturing, maintenance, and field-service environments. The Alnico 5 grade material retains magnetism well at high temperatures, making it a practical choice for applications near heat sources such as ovens, motors, or process equipment. The 10-24 thread is a common machine-screw size, so it integrates directly into standard tapped holes or with a matching nut on thin panel stock. Typical uses include sensor positioning, door latches, tool holders, and small fixture hold-downs.

Key Features

• Alnico 5 magnet material for strong temperature resistance up to 428 degrees F
• 1.19 lb average pull force and 2.3 lb maximum pull force in a compact form factor
• 5/8-inch diameter pot-style housing concentrates flux for improved holding strength
• 10-24 threaded stud for direct integration into standard tapped holes or fixtures
• Low profile at 0.5 inches high — fits in space-constrained assemblies
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds — suited for portable fixtures and lightweight jigs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Alnico pot magnet suitable for industrial fixturing, latching, and holding assemblies that require a 10-24 threaded mount and high-temperature performance.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the stud directly into a tapped hole or securing with a 10-24 nut against the mounting surface. Ensure the mating surface is clean, flat, and free of debris to achieve rated pull force. Avoid exposing Alnico magnets to strong demagnetizing fields or mechanical shock, as Alnico material is more susceptible to demagnetization than rare-earth grades. No special tools are required beyond standard hand tools for machine-screw hardware.
