Alnico Bar Magnets
Alnico 5 Bar Magnets
Alnico grade 5 bar magnets have exceptional magnetic properties. They offer excellent temperature stability in very high temperature environments, and can be used at temperatures up to 1000ºF (500ºC). Composed of aluminum (Al), nickel (Ni), and cobalt (Co) alloys, alnico magnets are relatively high in magnetic strength, and have a high resistance to corrosion or demagnetization.
Alnico 5 Bars for Guitar Pickups
Alnico 5 bars are a versatile choice for guitar pickups. They produce a bright tone, and dynamic response with greater output compared to the lesser alnico grades. Additionally, alnico bar magnets are useful for industrial, technical and consumer applications where temperature stability is critical. From magnetic pump couplings to rotating machinery, switches, meters, motors, generators, loud speakers, guitar pickups and more.

Standard Dimensional Tolerances for Alnico Bar Magnets
Generally the standard dimensional tolerance for bar magnets is +/-0.005" on both width & thickness & +/-0.015" on length.
Alnico Bar Magnet Manufacturing Methods
Alnico bar magnets are manufactured through either a casting or sintering process. They can be made into complex shapes such as horseshoes, which is not possible to do with other magnet materials.
Alnico Bar Magnet Applications
Alnico bar magnets are relatively high in magnetic strength and offer excellent temperature stability (they can be used in temperatures up to 1000°F/500°C). They are ideal for industrial, technical and consumer applications, where temperature stability is critical. Common applications for alnico disc magnets include:
