SmCo MAGNETS

SmCo are composed of samarium, cobalt and iron. These rare earth magnets are extremely strong for their small size, metallic in appearance and found in simple shapes such as rings, blocks and discs.

Attributes of SmCo

• High resistance to demagnetization
• High energy (magnetic strength is strong for its size)
• Good temperature stability
• Expensive material

Applications of SmCo

Computer disc drives, sensors, traveling wave tubes, linear actuators, satellite systems, motors where temporary stability is vital.
