Channel magnets are a robust and practical magnetic solution designed to provide strong holding power while protecting the magnet itself. Encased within a steel channel, these magnets focus the magnetic field on the contact surface, increasing holding strength and reducing the risk of damage or breakage during use.

At Jobmaster Magnets, our range of channel magnets is ideal for industrial, commercial, and workshop applications where durability and reliability are essential. They are commonly used for mounting, holding, clamping, positioning, and temporary fixtures in manufacturing, fabrication, signage, and maintenance environments.

The steel channel not only enhances magnetic performance but also shields the magnet from impact and wear. This makes channel magnets a dependable choice for repeated use in demanding conditions. Many channel magnets also feature pre-drilled holes or threaded fittings, allowing for easy and secure installation onto walls, machinery, or structures.

Why use channel magnets for mounting and holding?

Channel magnets are designed to deliver strong, directional holding force while remaining easy to install and remove. By concentrating the magnetic field on one face, they provide greater holding power than a standard magnet of similar size. This makes them ideal for applications requiring a secure yet non-permanent fixing solution.

Jobmaster Magnets supplies channel magnets in a range of sizes and holding strengths, with clear specifications to help you choose the right option for your application.
