Rochester Magnet Co.

A closed cell, cross-linked polyethylene foam coated on both sides with either acrylic or rubber based adhesive. Foam adhesives offer strong bond for uneven surfaces. This series is supplied in thicknesses from 132" up to 18" thick. FEATURES & BENEFITS High shear Bond well to irregular surfaces Excellent UV and temperature performance

Also called free film, this product consists of a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive without a carrier Protected by a release liner on one side with the other side exposed More extensible and conformable because there is no carrier Ideal for mounting nameplates, second surface printed signs or labels, and other decorative substrates

Rubber adhesives are made from natural or synthetic rubbers and are formulated with various compounds to become tacky. High initial strength Very good general purpose uses Most cost-effective PSA Adequate for short-term, non-critical, indoor applications Limited chemical, temperature and UV light resistance Not recommended for high heat applications

Acrylic adhesive tapes are a combination of acrylic monomers and other compounds formulated to create specific chemical structures that are tacky. Widest range of performance characteristics Adheres to most surfaces permanently Good initial strength that builds with dwell time Typically develops stronger bond than rubber-based adhesives Long-term aging, outdoor stability Outstanding chemical, temperature and UV light resistance

Samarium Cobalt provides another Rare Earth Class magnet with properties similar to Neodymium. Although the force potential of these magnets is less, they are significantly more resistant to elevated temperatures. The higher cost and lower energy potential of these magnets typically makes them best suited for applications with a high force requirement within a high temperature environment. Since these magnets are not subject to corrosion, they are typically uncoatedunplated. However, they are also very brittle and must be handled carefully or they will chip. Additionally, care must be taken in the application to minimize shock or fracture or else chipping can occur. Standard SmCo sizes and grades are provided in the link below.
