Ring magnets for coaxial and circular magnetic interfaces.
A general ring product family covering flat rings, thick rings, sleeves, segmented constructions, and reviewed pole patterns without splitting each material, magnetization, or application into a duplicate product page.

Product familyFlat rings, thick rings, sleeves, and segmented circular variants
Common materialsSintered NdFeB, sintered SmCo, or bonded rare-earth material where suitable
Common custom optionsOD, ID, length, wall thickness, pole pattern, coating, concentricity, and marking
Typical usesMotors, encoders, pumps, couplings, speakers, sensors, and circular assemblies
Product
Ring construction is the product; pole pattern and process are specifications.
Marketplace catalogs often split rings by material, magnetization, or end use. To prevent duplicate products, this page keeps solid rings, sleeves, segmented rings, and multipole variants under one primary circular family. The drawing then defines the exact construction, material, field pattern, and assembly state.
Review ring geometry, magnetization, assembly, and inspection capabilities
Natural fit for shafts, sleeves, and coaxial assemblies
Axial, diametrical, radial, or multipole routes
Solid, bonded, or segmented construction options
Common sourcing situations
- Outer diameter, inner diameter, and axial length define the primary form.
- The magnet surrounds or aligns with a shaft, sleeve, sensor, or circular working gap.
- A solid ring, molded ring, or segmented construction can be compared within one product family.
- Axial, diametrical, radial, or multipole magnetization can be referenced to the part.
Details to confirm before production
- Thin walls and brittle material routes need realistic concentricity, wall, and handling requirements.
- Radial and multipole patterns depend on fixture feasibility and a clear physical reference.
- Segmented rings add gap, polarity, retention, and assembly-sequence requirements.
- Working field must be evaluated at the real radial or axial gap and assembly state.
Specification
Define geometry, construction, and pole pattern as one circular interface.
A useful ring specification combines OD, ID, length, wall thickness, concentricity, material, coating, construction, magnetization, angular reference, working gap, and inspection. Multipole and segmented variants remain ring magnets rather than separate overlapping product families.
Common information used to define a ring magnet.
| Geometry | Outer diameter, inner diameter, axial length, wall thickness, concentricity, runout-sensitive interfaces, and datums. |
|---|---|
| Construction | Solid sintered ring, bonded ring, sleeve, segmented ring, or assembly-dependent route subject to feasibility review. |
| Magnetization | Axial, diametrical, radial, multipole, pole count, angular reference, and magnetized or unmagnetized delivery. |
| Surface and assembly | Coating, bonding, shaft or housing relationship, sleeves, gaps, retention, cleanliness, and marking. |
| Inspection and packaging | OD, ID, length, concentricity, coating state, polarity, pole map, waveform, orientation, and protected packing. |
Technical Data
Generic ring magnet product reference.
The fields below reflect common product-listing options. They organize a sourcing conversation but do not promise stock sizes, grades, tolerances, output, pole patterns, or delivery terms.
| Specification field | Common catalog options | Confirm for production |
|---|---|---|
| Dimensions | Outer diameter × inner diameter × axial length | Finished dimensions, wall thickness, concentricity, datums, and coated state |
| Material | NdFeB, SmCo, or bonded rare-earth route | Grade, operating temperature, load line, geometry, and environment |
| Construction | Solid ring, sleeve, segmented ring, or bonded molded ring | Output, geometry, tooling, assembly gaps, retention, and volume |
| Magnetization | Axial, diametrical, radial, multipole, or drawing-defined pattern | Pole count, polarity, angular reference, delivery state, and test position |
| Surface | Nickel, epoxy, zinc, passivation, or application-reviewed protection | Exposure, coating build, bonding, edge coverage, and assembly fit |
| Supply condition | Individual rings, matched segments, orientation-packed sets, or assembly-ready components | Quantity, marking, packaging, cleanliness, and acceptance documents |
This is generic catalog information. Final capability and acceptance are confirmed after drawing, construction, material, magnetic, coating, and application review.
Common catalog variants
Common circular variants remain part of one ring product family.

Flat and thick rings
Solid circular parts defined by outer diameter, inner diameter, and axial length.

Sleeves and long rings
Extended axial forms used around shafts, rotors, pumps, sensors, and coaxial assemblies.

Segmented and multipole rings
Circular systems whose construction or pole pattern is specified as an attribute of the ring product.
Application examples
Common applications for circular magnetic components.

Motors and motion control
Rotor, stator, and coaxial magnetic interfaces reviewed around pole pattern, air gap, speed, and temperature.

Encoders and sensors
Ring targets with defined pole direction, pole count, angular reference, working distance, and measurable response.

Pumps and couplings
Circular components used across sleeves or sealed gaps with geometry, exposure, and retention reviewed together.
Engineering guides
Use the same engineering checks across every product family.
Material, coating, magnetization, tolerances, and inspection remain product attributes. Confirm them against the drawing and application instead of creating another duplicate product category.
Magnetization Direction and Patterns
Define axial, diametrical, radial, and multipole patterns with physical references.
