Disc Magnets

Disc Magnets

Disc magnets are one of the most common and versatile shapes of neodymium magnets. They are circular and flat, with their magnetic poles located on the flat faces. This shape provides a wide, flat surface that increases magnetic pull strength, making them ideal for applications where a strong hold is required in a compact form factor.

Common Applications of Disc Magnets

  • Electronics: Due to their small size and strong magnetic force, disc magnets are essential components in many electronic devices. They are commonly found in speakers and headphones to generate sound waves, in hard drives to read and write data, and in smartphones for various sensors and actuators.
  • Medical Devices: The precise and strong magnetic fields generated by disc magnets make them valuable in medical devices. They are used in MRI machines for imaging, in medical instruments for precise manipulation, and in certain types of medical implants.
  • Consumer Products: Disc magnets are frequently used in consumer products as magnetic fasteners for bags, jewelry, and clothing. Their strong hold and compact size make them ideal for closures and attachments.
