Uses for our Rare Earth cylinder magnets

Neodymium cylindrical magnets are commonly used across a broad range of consumer, commercial and industrial applications. They are ideal for providing superior magnetic power whilst occupying a less expanse of footprint. This makes them particularly useful for embedding within other materials such as wood, composite board and acrylic plastic. Small magnets like these are used by frame makers and signage companies as the strong and targeted magnetic field is ideal for this type of application where precision of alignment is a primary concern.

Neodymium rod magnets are normally magnetised through their height or in other words axially magnetised. Cylinders are rarely diametrically magnetised except for very niche applications. The shape of the magnetic cylinder creates a longer magnetic field that penetrates or extends beyond that of an equivalent diameter disc magnet. Reed switches, sensors and medical devices are all common products where you would find a Neodymium cylinder in use.
