Ι What Are Ferrite Block Magnets?
Ferrite magnets, also known as ceramic magnets or hard ferrites, are a type of non-metallic permanent magnet made from Iron Oxide (Fe2O3), Barium Carbonate (BaCO3), or Strontium Carbonate (SrCO3) as raw materials. These magnets are manufactured through a powder metallurgy process and are known for their low cost, moderate magnetic properties, and high resistance to corrosion, making them ideal for applications where cost-effectiveness and durability are important.
Ferrite block magnets are one the simplest shapes of ferrite magnets, characterized by their rectangular or cuboid shape. They are typically measured by their length, width, and height, with the magnetization direction generally aligned with the thinnest dimension. Ferrite block magnets are effective in various applications, including magnetic separators and holding systems such as magnetic door catches.
