RUBBER COATED MOUNTING MAGNETS
Neodymium Rare Earth Rubber Coated Magnets
Rubber-coated magnets are produced with a rubber layer around the magnet’s body. This design not only keeps the magnet’s adhesive force strong but also protects the surface of the attracted object very well through the rubber layer placed in between, avoiding scratches or any other damage.
Usually, rubber-coated magnets consist of six magnetic pieces with a plum blossom arrangement, creating a multi-point adsorption structure that reinforces the vertical pulling and lateral shear forces.
Classification of Rubber Coated Magnets
Rubber-coated magnets are magnetic products widely used in many fields because of their protective and long-lasting design. To meet various needs, these magnets have been divided into four types based on their structure and mounting characteristics, each specially designed for a particular use case.
Structural Composition of Rubber-Coated Magnets
Six high-performance neodymium magnets are selected and arranged according to a plum blossom multi-pole magnetic circuit design, precisely fixed onto a pre-processed iron base. The magnet arrangement is meticulously calibrated to ensure uniform adsorption and shear forces.
A layer of TPR is pre-sealed at the bottom of the iron base, forming an initial protective layer. Under high pressure, molten TPR uniformly encases the magnets and iron base, creating a rubber protective layer of consistent thickness. After injection molding, the mold automatically opens, and a robotic arm removes the finished product.
At this point, the product surface retains a residual temperature of approximately 40-50°C and requires natural cooling in a controlled environment for 5-10 seconds to stabilize the physical properties of the rubber layer.
Applications of Rubber-Coated Magnets
Rubber-coated magnets are highly adaptable, offering robust solutions across various industries and settings. Their protective and durable design makes them suitable for numerous practical uses. Below are seven key application scenarios where rubber-coated magnets are commonly utilized:
* Vehicle Accessory Mounting
* Tool Mounting in Workshops
* Home and Office Decor Hanging
* High-Temperature Equipment Support
* Outdoor Signage Fixing
* Retail Display Organization
* Marine Component Attachment
Coated Magnets vs. Flexible Magnets: How to Choose?
Rubber-coated and flexible magnets are ideal for surface protection, but they are suited to different application scenarios.
Coated Magnets are suitable in a typical situation where a powerful single-point grip is needed, and a large shear force is essential, for example, fixing a car-mounted device or workpiece in machining. Implementing a multi-pole magnetic circuit in their design ensures the best performance.
Flexible Magnets: When gentle touch or contact or even the adsorption of a large area is required, flexible magnets are also a good choice. Their soft texture and diffused suction perfectly protect the most demanding surfaces.
