Directions of Magnetism

Through
Thickness
The majority of our magnets are magnetised through the thickness, your most common magnet for blocks.

Axially
Orientated
The majority of our magnets are magnetised through their thickness, your most common round magnet.

Axially Oriented in Segments
Magnetised North south on a single face, most commonly used in magnetic clutches.

Oriented Laterally Multipole On
One Face
A stronger hold against steel compared to the same size.

Multipole Oriented In Segments On Outside Diameter
Commonly used in motors and clutches. Indent Order

Radially
Oriented
Normally used in generators, or other electrical devices.

Oriented Through Diameter
Often used in motors and electronics

Diametrically
Oriented
Used in the medical industry and wall clock movements.
