Neodymium clamping magnets are made of a powerful Neodymium magnet sunken into a steel shell, mean...Neodymium clamping magnets are made of a powerful Neodymium magnet sunken into a steel shell, meaning the north pole is on the centre of the magnetic face and the south pole is on the outer edge. These eyebolts are machine lathed. The steel pot increases the adhesive force of the magnets, giving them an incredible hold for their size. An added advantage is that these magnets are resistant to chipping or cracking following constant impact with a steel surface. These magnets come with a safe-handling warning because they are so powerful they can be dangerous if not handled carefully. SUPER STRONG. This Neodymium magnet can support 200kg vertically from the magnetic face when in flush contact with a mild steel surface of equal thickness. Perfect for salvaging various ferrous materials such as coins, safes, nails, bikes, and more this magnet is ideal for magnet fishing. Also, this lifting magnet is a great choice for lifting, hanging, and retrieving. CRACK-RESISTANT. EXTERNAL THREAD. This Neodymium magnet features an M10 metric internal thread that allows it to be screwed together with objects that have a compatible external thread. SAFETY WARNING. SPECIFICATIONS. 75mm diameter x 18.5mm tall with an M10 eyebolt. +/-0.1mm tolerance. Machine Lathed. EXPERT ADVICE. After your purchase, our team of experts is always available to provide technical advice and support with your application.
This powerful Neodymium clamping magnet is designed for heavy-duty lifting, hanging, and retrieving tasks, making it ideal for magnet fishing and industrial applications. Its steel pot construction enhances magnetic force for an impressive 200kg vertical pull strength, and it's resistant to chipping. A key caveat is its extreme power, requiring careful handling to avoid injury or damage.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the primary use for this magnet?
This magnet is primarily designed for heavy-duty lifting, retrieval, and magnet fishing due to its strong Neodymium core and robust steel casing.
How much weight can this magnet actually hold?
Under ideal conditions (flush contact with a 10mm thick mild steel plate), it can support up to 200kg vertically. Actual performance will vary based on the steel's properties and contact surface.
Is this magnet safe to use around electronics?
No, due to its extreme power, this magnet should be kept at a significant distance from sensitive electronic devices, credit cards, pacemakers, and other magnetically sensitive items to prevent damage or malfunction.
How do I safely handle such a powerful magnet?
Always use caution. Keep fingers and skin away from the magnetic faces when bringing it near steel or another magnet. Wear gloves if necessary. Avoid dropping it or allowing it to slam against surfaces.
What does 'Machine Lathed' mean for the eyebolt?
It means the M10 eyebolt has been precisely manufactured using a lathe, ensuring accurate dimensions, a clean finish, and reliable threading for secure attachment.
Can I use this magnet underwater?
Yes, it is suitable for magnet fishing and underwater retrieval. Ensure all threaded connections are secure before submersion and avoid prolonged exposure to saltwater if possible, as it can affect metal components over time.
What is the advantage of the steel pot?
The steel pot enhances the magnet's holding force by directing the magnetic field, and it significantly increases the magnet's durability by protecting it from chipping and cracking during impacts.
Troubleshooting
Magnet not holding significant weight.
Ensure the target surface is made of mild steel and is at least 10mm thick. Check that the magnet is making full, flush contact. Clean both the magnet face and the steel surface. Avoid using on painted, coated, or non-ferrous surfaces.
Eyebolt is difficult to screw in.
Verify that the external thread is indeed M10 and is not damaged. Ensure there are no burrs or debris on either thread. Try gently wiggling the magnet while screwing.
Magnet is difficult to detach from a steel surface.
To detach, slide the magnet sideways off the surface rather than pulling directly away. Use a protective layer (like wood or plastic) between the magnet and the surface if detaching is a frequent challenge, though this will reduce holding power.
Magnet appears chipped or cracked.
While resistant, extreme impacts can still cause minor damage. Inspect the steel pot. If the magnet core itself is exposed, discontinue use for safety-critical applications and contact support. Minor cosmetic chips on the steel pot may not affect performance.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Exceptional lifting and holding power for its size.
Durable construction resistant to chipping and cracking.
Versatile M10 threaded connection for secure mounting.
Ideal for magnet fishing and retrieving ferrous materials.
Expert technical support available post-purchase.
Cons
Requires careful handling due to extreme magnetic strength.
Performance dependent on the thickness and type of steel surface.
Internal thread connection requires a compatible external thread.
Risk of pinching fingers or damaging sensitive electronics if not handled with care.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Inspect the magnet and eyebolt for any shipping damage.
Ensure the M10 external thread on the object you wish to attach is clean and compatible.
Screw the magnet onto the external thread until secure. For simple lifting, ensure the eyebolt is clear for rope or carabiner attachment.
Compatibility:
This magnet is designed for use with ferrous materials (iron, steel).
The M10 internal thread requires a matching M10 external thread. Common applications include attaching to threaded rods or custom fixtures.
Maximum pull strength is achieved on 10mm thick mild steel surfaces. Thinner or non-ferrous metals will significantly reduce holding power.
Care:
Handle with extreme caution. Keep away from pacemakers, electronic devices, and children. Use gloves to prevent pinching.
Store the magnet on a steel plate or in its original packaging to prevent it from sticking to other metallic objects.
Clean the magnetic face and the steel surface it attaches to for optimal performance. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals.
Do not drop the magnet, as this can cause damage despite its crack-resistant design.
