There are two kinds of pot magnets. Neodymium pot magnets and ferrite pot magnets. Neodymium pot magnets consists of powful neodymium magnets and metal shell outside. Neodymium magnets are the most powful permanent magnets. Metal shell is conductive to magnetics. All sides of neodymium magnets are enclosured by iron shell except for the working side. The design is helpful to greatly enhance the magnetic force, thus the pull force of pot magnets is times higher than the single neodymium magnets in the same size. In addition, the metal shell could protect neodymium magnets from breaking in application. The most popular platinging of metal pot and neodymium magnets is Nickel.
The pot magnets are widely used to hold tools, signes, lamps, metal parts of machinery etc. We can make pot magnets in different shapes and sizes.
