Sintered Samarium (Rare Earth) Cobalt
These sintered magnets are produced by a powder metallurgy process and provide an exceptionally high energy product and resistance to demagnetisation. They are normally supplied in a magnetised condition. Being very brittle, they must be handled with extreme care. Highly resistant to corrosion, they also have higher working temperatures than Neodymium-Iron-Boron; maximum for SmCo (1:5) is 250ºC, and for SmCo (2:17) is 300ºC.
