Eclipse M19614/MSC Horseshoe Alnico Channel Magnet

Product Description

The ECLIPSE M19614/MSC is a horseshoe alnico channel magnet designed for precision holding and positioning applications in industrial and trade environments. It features a channel width of 3/16 inches and an overall width of 1/2 inch, with a height of 5/16 inches and a channel length of 3/16 inches. The maximum pull force is 0.5 pounds. Constructed from alnico alloy, this magnet delivers stable magnetic output across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for use in high-heat environments up to 1,022 degrees F. Licensed tradespeople and equipment technicians working with sensors, fixtures, and electromechanical assemblies are the primary installers.

This channel magnet is used in applications where a compact, high-temperature-tolerant permanent magnet is required. Typical uses include sensor actuation, instrument assembly, fixture holding, and positioning within industrial equipment. The horseshoe channel geometry allows for direct mounting or integration into machined slots. Its small form factor suits precision assemblies in HVAC controls, electrical instrumentation, and light industrial machinery where standard ceramic magnets cannot withstand operating temperatures.

Key Features

• Alnico alloy construction supports continuous operation up to 1,022 degrees F
• Channel width of 3/16 inches suits precision slot and fixture applications
• Maximum pull force of 0.5 pounds in a compact, lightweight form
• Horseshoe channel geometry enables direct drop-in or fastened mounting
• Weighs 0.03 pounds, minimizing load on sensitive assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or component-level addition for industrial fixtures, sensor assemblies, and electromechanical equipment requiring a small horseshoe alnico channel magnet with a 3/16-inch channel width.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians, instrumentation technicians, or qualified industrial maintenance personnel. De-energize and lock out any associated electrical or mechanical equipment before handling magnetic components near ferrous parts or sensitive electronics. Alnico magnets can be partially demagnetized by mechanical shock, so handle with care during installation. Verify channel slot dimensions match the magnet body before press-fitting or fastening into the assembly.
