D84PC-RB Specifications

  • Dimensions: This shows the name of each dimension and how it is measured in the image.
  • Magnetization Direction: The direction through which the magnet is magnetized. See our Magnetization Directions page for more details.
    Magnetization direction icon Axially Magnetized
  • Size: Size is the physical dimensions of the product using the standard unit of measure inches.
    0.5 x 0.25 Inch ( Diameter x Thickness )
  • Metric Size: Metric size is the physical dimensions of the product in metric millimeters.
    12.7 x 6.35 mm ( Diameter x Thickness )
  • Pull Force 1: Pull force case 1 represents a magnet attracting to a thick steel plate. Learn more about Magnet Pull Force Case 1.
    3.45 lb (1.56 kg)
  • Pull Force 2: Pull force case 2 represents a magnet attracting to a thick steel plate on both sides. Learn more about Magnet Pull Force Case 2.
    5.57 lb (2.53 kg)
  • Grade:
    N42
  • Max Operating Temp: Maximum operating temperature, also known as maximum service temperature, is the temperature at which the magnet may be exposed to continuously with no significant long-range instability or structural changes. Learn more in our Temperature and Neodymium Magnets article.
    176°F (80°C)
  • Surface Field: Surface field is the magnetic field strength at the surface of the magnet as measured by a Gauss meter. Our Surface Field Table is a comprehensive table of the surface field for all of our stock magnets. Learn about magnet surface field calculations in our Surface Fields 101 article.
    3775 Gauss
  • Material: This lists the name of the material each product is composed of.
    Neodymium (NdFeb)
  • BH Max: BH max is the Maximum Energy Product at the point on the B/H Curve that has the most strength, expressed in MGOe (MegaGaussOersteds). When describing the grade of a neodymium magnet, this number is commonly referred to as the "N" number, as in Grade N52 magnets. Learn more about Bh max in our glossary.
    42 MGOe
  • Tolerances: Dimensional tolerance specifies the allowed leeway for variations in manufacturing.
    ±0.004 in (.1mm)
  • Coating: Most neodymium magnets are plated or coated in order to protect the magnet material from corrosion. Check out our Custom Magnets for unplated magnets and other coatings not stocked for this size magnet. Learn more about all available platings and coating in our What Magnet Coating Should I Use? article.
    Nickel-Copper-Nickel-Plastic (Ni-Cu-Ni-Plastic)
  • Weight: This is the weight of a single magnet in ounces and grams.
    0.1363 oz (3.86 g)
  • Br Max: Br max is also called "Residual Flux Density" and is when the magnetic induction remaining in a saturated magnetic material after the magnetizing field has been removed. This is the point at which the hysteresis loop crosses the B axis at zero magnetizing force, and represents the maximum flux output from the given magnet material. By definition, this point occurs at zero air gap, and therefore cannot be seen in practical use of magnet materials. Learn more about Br max in our glossary.
    13,200 Gauss
  • Color: The color of the coating or plating on the product.
    Multicolor

These amazing little magnets are coated with a durable layer of two-tone plastic. This dual-color plastic coating is designed to make it easy to identify the poles. The red half is the North side of the magnet. The black half is the South side of the magnet. Use them to identify the poles of another magnet, on magnetic whiteboards to signify complete/incomplete projects, in the classroom or for science projects. They are also great for the budding magnet enthusiast. 
 
The 1/2" x 1/4" dimensions are the finished dimensions of the plastic coating. Snap them together many times without damage. They won't mark or scratch surfaces they come in contact with and are completely weatherproof. The perfect magnet? We like to think so!

Looking for this color combo in a different shape? Try our P/N D68PC-RB.
