    Nonmarring Encased Neodymium Disc Magnets

    These safeguarded magnets grip surfaces without marking them. The rubber-coated case protects metal housings and control panels from scratches and adds friction for a tight grip. It also shields the magnet from cracks and chips caused by drops and bumps. With the highest strength-to-size ratio of any magnet, these deliver powerful pull force even in tight spaces.
    Warning: Maximum pull ratings are based on direct contact with rust-free, unpainted iron plate. Variations in material condition will significantly reduce these ratings. Do not use for lifting over people.

    Internally threaded for secure mounting with screws or bolts.
    Zinc-Plated Steel Case—Withstands occasional exposure to moisture.
    Nickel-Plated Steel Case—Offers similar corrosion resistance to chrome plating to withstand salt water and chemicals. However, nickel is more likely to wear off over time.
    Magnetized Through Thickness—Magnetized from one flat face to the other, these magnets deliver a concentrated magnetic force. They’re best for direct contact with flat surfaces.
