Samarium Cobalt Deep Pot Magnet
Ideal for higher temperature holding and clamping applications
Samarium Cobalt SmCo is the alternative Rare Earth magnet. It is often used in aerospace, automotive and military applications. It is usually weaker than NdFeB Neodymium at room temperature. Samarium Cobalt SmCo is capable of use in extremes of cold and heat. It also has very high coercivity making it ideal for high temperature motor applications.
Samarium Cobalt also has extremely good temperature coefficients making the magnet output very stable with small changes in temperature. It is very popular in mission-critical sensing applications.

Example
A magnetic pump coupling was required to cope with high temperatures up to and possibly over +300°C (572°F). We supplied the H rated SmCo which will cope with temperatures up to +350°C (662°F).
