Disc magnets neodymium

Neodymium disc magnets, also known as round magnets, are among the most popular types of magnets in our online shop. They are extremely versatile in their use and achieve remarkable adhesive forces even at a small size. Responsible for that is the neodymium-iron-boron combination, which is currently the strongest available magnet material in the world. We carry more than 100 disc magnets in our broad assortment, and you can choose from tiny magnets that are less than one millimetre thick to more substantial discs with a diameter of several centimetres. The advantages of neodymium disc magnets at a glance:

Compact and strong
High adhesive force on small area
All-rounder among neodymium magnets
Many special designs available: self-adhesive, waterproof, countersunk

By the way: We categorise neodymium magnets with a height larger than their diameter as round rod magnets.

Other types of disc magnets

As an alternative to neodymium disc magnets, you can also find ferrite disc magnets in our online shop. They do have a lower adhesive force compared to to the round magnets made of neodymium, but they are also less expensive. In addition, ferrite magnets are ideal for outdoor use and can withstand higher temperatures.

In the supermagnete online shop, you can also find the following types of round magnets:

Neodymium magnets: Especially strong as discs

We offer our disc magnets in more than 100 different sizes. They have adhesive forces ranging from 25 g to 140 kg, so you can find the right product for your needs. They are so-called raw magnets where the magnetic flux lines are dispersed in the air around the magnet (in contrast to pot magnets). This large areal distribution allows for attraction of metallic objects from a large distance.

Direction of magnetisation of disc magnets

Most of our neodymium disc magnets are axially magnetised. This means the poles are located above and below on the circular surfaces. A few round magnets are diametrically magnetised (poles left and right), which we have marked for you.

Possible application areas:

Furniture construction: lid and drawer clips with especially flat self-adhesive or screw-on magnetic discs
Metal, booth and store construction
Workshop
Loudspeaker construction
Model making
Purse and clothing clasps to sew-on

Our strong round magnets can be easily glued into depressions (e.g. for knife racks) or on the backside of small items, for instance to create magnetic board or fridge magnets.

Tip: Use our tool to calculate the adhesive force of disc magnets at various distances.

Disc magnet coatings

Our disc magnets come in the following designs:

nickel-plated (standard)
copper-plated
gold-plated
with epoxy resin
with non-stick coating (especially scratch-proof)
