Precast Concrete Panels display consistently superior quality to concrete that is made On-site. The controlled atmosphere found in a factory ensures evenly cured concrete products in a safe and predictable environment and also allows close monitoring by staff to ensure only first-grade products reach the construction project. Most of the vagaries of On-Site casting are eliminated when the concrete components are pre-made and ready for assembly. Steel Formwork can be repeatedly used to make identical concrete modules of identical quality. Civil Engineers and Managers of Private and Public construction projects all rely on Pre-cast sections to meet their safety and economic requirements. Infrastructure projects like Bridges, Railways, Dams, Tunnels, Football Stadia, Elevated Roads and Walkways as well as Factories benefit from and rely on precast concrete sections for their efficient construction. Political Parties use promises of these projects to influence constituents during election campaigns. Retail Shops and Offices all benefit from the longevity and consistency that Precast sections provide. Architects and Engineers can design works with confidence, predictability and on-budget by using Precast Concrete to reduce labour costs, human error and adverse weather impact.
This Neodymium Magnetic Plate is used to attach Lifting Anchors or Fixing Sockets to the steel formwork when Precast Concrete Panels are being manufactured. Precast panels are made Off-site and need to be transported to the construction area. Without the lifting points and locating holes created by Magnetic Fixing Plates, the finished slabs would be very difficult to crane on to trucks or be lifted into position. The device contains powerful Rare Earth magnets that keep the plate in the correct position on steel mouldings or forms during the casting process. Lightly oiling the casing will ensure its easy removal and make it reusable. Various sizes are available to suit a range of concrete panels.
It has a diameter of 60mm with M12 thread, a pull force of 50kg and is identified by AMF Part Number MFP12.

The most common coating for Neodymium magnets is Nickel + Copper + Nickel (Ni + Cu + Ni). This coating offers the magnet relatively good protection from corrosion and passive applications. If the magnet will be exposed to moisture or liquid then consider the use of an organic coating such as Epoxy. A hard wearing coating, Epoxy is suited to applications where the magnet will come under some friction or knocking.
Magnets are readily available in Blocks, Discs, Cylinders & Rings. AMF Magnetics specializes in the supply of short-run prototype magnets including Arc Segments, various magnetic orientations etc. If you need a magnet size that we don't carry in stock, submit a Design-a-Magnet enquiry for a quote on your custom magnet design.
Neodymium magnets are offered in several different grades. The first section N30-54 has an operating temperature of up to 80 degrees. Most of our stock only goes up to N38. The second section, denoted with the "M" prefix after the grade has an operating temperature 100 degrees. After this the grades are "H", "SH", "UH" & "EH". In order for the magnet to withstand a higher operating temperature, during production more of the raw material PrNd is incorporated as these elements have a naturally occurring resistance to high temperatures.
The Pull Force listed for each magnet is based on lifting 10mm thick steel from a horizontal surface. Magnets on a vertical surface (of 10mm thick steel) are generally able to hold around only 30% of the pull force listed in the product description. This is due to the effects of gravity and the lack of friction between the surface and the shiny magnet. Read More
