Neodymium and Samarium Cobalt Materials

Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB)

Neodymium magnets are based on rare earth. Currently the most powerful magnets available are those produced from Neodymium. This opens up an important application area, where space is limted, or where high dynamics are demanded.

Neodymium can be supplied in 28 possible grades and many varied dimensions, BM35 grade being the most common grade for most applications. Neodymium can be supplied in disc,block, ring or in segment form as standard, or specifically to customer requirements. neodymium can be produced to tolerances of within +/- 0.1mm.

Samarium-Cobalt (SmCo5 & SmCo17)

Samarium-cobalt magnets are powerful and are able to withstand temperatures of up to 250c. They are made from an alloy of the rare earth samarium and cobalt. On account of the exceptional hardenss of the material, they can only be worked on with the use of diamond tools

Samarium-cobalt can be supplied in 3 grades BM18, BM22 and BM24, as per Neodymium it can be supplied in disc,block,ring as standard or to customer requirements

Also available within the Neo & Samarium range is bonded Neodymium which is available in 6 standard grades.
