9756 – Alnico 5 Rod Magnet 1/8″ Diameter x 0.4687″ Long

SKU 9756 is a compact Alnico 5 rod magnet measuring 1/8 in diameter × 0.4687 in long. Axially magnetized, it is suited to engineers, OEMs, and procurement teams working on sensing, instrumentation, legacy magnetic circuits, and elevated-temperature applications where Alnico’s thermal stability is valuable.

Compact Alnico 5 design notes

Alnico offers excellent temperature stability and high residual induction, but its coercivity is lower than NdFeB and ferrite. In compact open-circuit geometries, the magnet’s length-to-diameter ratio and surrounding return path should be considered carefully to reduce demagnetization risk.

The listed pull rating is not a universal design load. Real holding force varies with air gap, target steel, contact geometry, surface finish, and pull direction. Use the Magnet Pull Force Calculator when comparing operating conditions.
