Explore available Alnico magnet grades available from Dura Magnetics...
Alnico magnets exhibit a high degree of corrosion resistance and are typically employed in applications with no coatings or plating.
Alnico magnets offer the best temperature characteristics of any standard production magnet material available. Alnico magnets can be used for continuous duty applications where temperature extremes up to 930°F (500°C) can be expected.

Alnico magnets manufactured by Dura Magnetics are compliant with Intellectual Property Rights, Environmental Restrictions, and Conflict Mineral usage.
Learn more about compliance and intellectual property considerations for Alnico magnets…
Alnico magnets are very strong and brittle, requiring appropriate handling and packing to ensure safety and prevent damage.
Learn more about safe handling and storage of Alnico magnets…
Alnico magnets are typically manufactured by a powdered metallurgical process utilizing rigid steel or rubber molds.
Limited availability of Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) compliant material can make small magnet production runs costly. However, we stock various grades at our U.S. facility, enabling us to provide cost-effective, DFARS-compliant magnets for all customers if needed, regardless of project size or requirements.
We are also registered and compliant with the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). This qualifies us to work with items listed on the United States Munitions List (USML). We are also ITAR registered with the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC).
