Adams' New Catalog Simplifies Magnetic Product Selection


Elmhurst, Illinois -- Adams Magnetic Products Co. released its 2008 catalog introducing its Neodymium magnetic assemblies with new mounting configurations, and its new "MAG" branded flexible magnetic products. Along with a showcase of the most popular magnetic products from each of its five product categories, the catalog also includes updated product details on size, weight, pounds of pull and performance in extreme temperatures. For a copy of the new catalog, please visit www.adamsmagnetic.com, or call 800-747-7543.

"With thousands of product options available, selecting the right product for the right application can be daunting," explains Craig Myers, Adams' national sales manager. "The catalog is designed to simplify the selection and ordering process. Of course, our staff is happy to assist with complex and customized needs."

The catalog includes information on magnets' functions and types, a glossary of terms, and material properties charts. It also describes common applications and specifications for each of the following:

Flexible Magnets -- Used in displays, labeling systems, exhibits and signage, this product category features PRINTMAG(TM) magnetic sheets with inkjet compatible surface, MAGBOND(TM) and MAGSTEEL(TM) magnetic receptive materials, and METERMAG(TM) sheeting, EDGEMAG(TM) which holds side-to-side as well as front-to-back, and MATCHMAG(TM) matched pole strips.

Alnico Magnets -- These magnets have the best temperature coefficient of any commercial magnet material and are commonly used in magnetos, separators, sensors, relays and security systems where stability over a wide temperature range is crucial.

Ceramic Magnets -- Among the most economical magnetic materials available, these are most commonly used in DC motors, magnetic separators, MRI, automotive sensors, loudspeakers, craft projects or as refrigerator magnets.

Rare Earth Magnets -- Neodymium (Neo) and Samarium Cobalt magnets deliver incredible strength in a small package. Rare earth materials can be cut and ground to specifications before magnetization. Adams expands the potential for these powerful, compact magnets by offering Neo magnets with adhesive backing and with matching strike plates for use as packaging closures and other high-strength fastening applications.

Magnetic Assemblies -- Up to 32 times stronger than individual ceramic magnets, Adams' standard assemblies are powerful magnets encased in steel. The most popular assemblies include round base magnetic products with, or without a hook; channels and sandwiches for use as sign and banner holders, or as latches in fixtures.

Established in 1950, Adams Magnetic Products Co. sets the standard for designing and manufacturing innovative magnetic products and assemblies. One of the oldest U.S. companies in the industry, its staff draws from a depth of engineering, fabricating, coating, testing, sourcing, handling, and distributing expertise managing inventory and delivery to coincide with customers' production cycles and schedules. Adams stocks a large variety and quantity of the most popular magnetic products and has the capabilities to produce magnets of virtually any shape and size.
