Rare Earth - Samarium Cobalt
Samarium Cobalt is an alternative to Neodymium-lron-Boron (NdFeB), as SmCo magnets can withstand much higher temperatures and are more corrosion resistant than NdFeB. Samarium Cobalt is more costly than NdFeB due to the market price sensitivity of Cobalt. SmCo is used in computer disk drives, sensors, traveling wave tubes, linear actuators, satellite systems and some motors.
Standard and custom sizes and grades of SmCo are available. Please Contact Us with your specifications and application requirements.
Common Applications: Satellite Systems - Linear Actuators - Computer Disc Drives - Sensors - Motors (where temporary stability is vital).
