D42DIA Neodymium Disc/Cylinder Magnets

Experience the unique attraction of the D42DIA discs, which boast a “diametrically magnetized” design. This means the poles are positioned across from each other on the circular perimeter, unlike most disc magnets where the poles are located on the center of the flat surfaces. As a result, these magnets tend to align side-by-side, providing a unique play pattern compared to their traditional stacking counterparts. This non-standard magnetization turns them into intriguing discs for your experimentation.

This distinctive feature makes these discs a popular choice in conjunction with Hall Effect switches and sensors, enhancing their utility in a variety of technical applications.

Recognizing that different projects require different magnetization, we’re pleased to offer this particular size in various configurations. If you’re in need of an axially magnetized version, look no further than part number D42-N52 for grade N52 with silver nickel plating. You can find the same size in grade N42, plated with silver nickel as part number D42. For those requiring a black epoxy coated variant in grade N42, refer to part number D42E. Lastly, our grade N52 magnet with a black nickel finish can be found under part number D42B-N52. Tailor your choice to best suit your magnetic needs with EPI Magnets.
