J.W. Winco Inc. offers metric size Retaining Magnet Assemblies. The new product line includes 18 different types of magnet assemblies, to accommodate any application.
The use of retaining magnet assemblies is a simple solution for no-wear magnetic holding of an object. Due to their structure, each magnet assembly type has only one magnetic pulling force level. The full magnetic force is focused directly onto the adhesive surface by means of iron magnetic poles. The spatial effect of the magnetic field is limited by shielded systems, so that surrounding objects are not magnetized.
Among the types of magnet assemblies offered are flat gripper types, rod gripper types, button-types, and U-Magnets. Materials include steel, stainless steel and brass. Within the assemblies, the magnets themselves come in four materials: hard ferrite SrFe (HF type), samarium and cobalt combination AlNiCo (SC type), neodymium, iron and boron version NdFeB (ND type), and aluminum, nickel and cobalt combination AlNiCo (AN type). Magnet assemblies also come in an array of sizes, threads, and finishes, and are designed to accommodate different mounting requirements. There are various types available that provide a variety of levels of pulling forces.

- ferrite
ferrite
Solid solution of one or more elements in body-centered cubic iron. Unless otherwise designated, for instance, as chromium ferrite, the solute is generally assumed to be carbon. On an equilibrium diagram, there are two ferrite regions separated by an austenite area. The lower area is alpha ferrite and the upper area is delta ferrite. If there is no designation, alpha ferrite is assumed. Not more than 0.04 percent carbon can be dissolved in alpha iron. Ferrite is stable below 1,670º F (910º C); it is soft, highly ductile, and magnetic. Ferrite loses its magnetic property above 1,414º F (768º C).
- flat ( screw flat)
flat ( screw flat)
Flat surface machined into the shank of a cutting tool for enhanced holding of the tool.
