Shop By Magnet Type:
Alnico magnets are one of the most well-known types of magnet. These magnets are typically painted red and used widely in industrial and educational applications. We stock an extensive range of alnico horseshoe and bar magnets in a variety of sizes perfect for home, professional, industrial and commercial applications.
Neodymium magnets, also known as “Rare Earth Magnets” are high performance magnets and are the strongest type of magnet commercially available. We stock a huge range of neodymium magnets in a variety of shapes and sizes
Samarium Cobalt magnets are typically known as High Temperature magnets. These strong magnets can withstand operating temperatures that other magnets would simply degenerate under. This material is also very brittle by nature and can be prone to chipping and cracking.
Our ferrite magnets offer a deep depth of field as well as outstanding value for money. Ferrite magnets are typically not as powerful as neodymium magnets but are less brittle than samarium cobalt magnets. For high performance strong ferrite magnets our Channel magnets provide superb value for money in an innovative rectangular assembly.

Have you got a question about magnets? To help answer your question we’ve include some common magnet questions and answer below. Visit our comprehensive FAQ for more magnet information.
+ What do people use magnets for?
This is a very common question often asked when people talk about magnets. The simplest answer we can give is that “magnets are used in almost every commercial application across the world, from industrial manufacturing and consumer electronic devices to sustainable energy and domestic power generation”.
They were first discovered by the ancient Greeks and originally called ‘Lodestone’, magnets have been the subject of re-engineering and industrialisation for many decades. As a result, high performance rare earth magnets are now commercially available around the world. With the discovery of small, high performance rare earth magnets came the development of new technologies.
The past decade has seen magnets form a fundamental part of consumer electronic devices. Without them the boom in computer hard drives would not have been possible, loud speakers would not perform so well and new wind turbine farms springing up around the world would cease to exist. Magnets are simply an unnoticeable part of everyday life.
+ How do I choose the right magnet?
It is surprising just how many magnets are available to purchase online for your office, home, school or business. With literally thousands of different types, sizes and strengths of magnet which one do you choose? At First4magnets.com we like to think that choosing the right magnet for your application is a simple and easy process, so how so we do it? We employ a specialist team of technical engineers that work round the clock to provide professional and detailed advice. Unless you ask us to we won’t give you any complicated equations or ask you to calculate any big numbers, we’ll do all that for you. Simply tell us about your project and we will supply you with the right magnet.
+ What are Neodymium Magnets?
Neodymium magnets are often referred to “NdFeb” Magnets. First discovered in 1982 and commercially available in 1984 Neodymium magnets have largely become the most widely used type of rare earth magnet around the world. They are manufactured from an alloy of neodymium, iron and boron (NdFeB). Although relatively small in size they are known for their incredible strength.
Are neodymium magnets really that strong?
Yes, they are. Neodymium magnets (sometimes referred to as “rare earth magnets”) are the strongest commercially available magnets. These magnets possess an extremely high magnetic pull and in some cases (the very strong ones) can cause severe injury. If you would like to know how some of our customers are using Neodymium magnets, please take a moment to view our Applications Page.
