Rubber Coated Pot Magnet – 22mm | M4 Male Thread

Description

The Rubber Coated Pot Magnet – 22mm | M4 Male Thread is a compact, versatile magnetic mounting solution designed for applications requiring secure magnetic attachment, convenient threaded fastening and protection for delicate metal surfaces.

Featuring a 22mm diameter, protective rubber coating and M4 male threaded stud, this magnetic pot magnet provides a practical solution for mounting, positioning and securing compatible equipment to ferromagnetic steel surfaces without the need for permanent modifications.

The rubber coating creates a protective barrier between the magnet and the contact surface, helping minimise scratches, scuffs and direct metal-to-metal contact. This makes it particularly useful for applications involving painted steel panels, metal cabinets, equipment housings and other surfaces where surface protection is important.

Unlike conventional uncoated pot magnets, rubber coated magnetic mounts are designed to provide additional frictional grip. The rubber contact surface can help reduce sliding when the magnet is subjected to sideways forces, although actual holding performance depends on the load, surface conditions and magnetic strength.

The integrated M4 male threaded stud provides a convenient attachment point for compatible M4 female threaded components, nuts, brackets and mounting accessories, allowing the magnet to be incorporated into custom fixtures and magnetic assemblies.

With its compact 22mm diameter, this rubber coated pot magnet is suitable for applications where installation space is limited or a discreet magnetic attachment point is required.

The magnetic holding system provides reusable attachment to suitable ferromagnetic surfaces, allowing equipment and accessories to be repositioned without drilling holes into the supporting steel.

Whether used for workshop organisation, equipment positioning, temporary fixtures or custom magnetic mounting projects, this 22mm rubber coated pot magnet with M4 male thread offers a practical combination of magnetic holding, surface protection and installation flexibility.

Also known as a rubber coated magnetic mount, 22mm rubber pot magnet, M4 male threaded magnet, rubber covered holding magnet, threaded magnetic mounting base or protective magnetic pot magnet, this product is suitable for a variety of commercial, industrial and DIY applications.

Please Note: The magnetic pull force, overall height, threaded stud length and maximum load capacity have not been specified. Confirm suitability before using the magnet in load-bearing applications.

Protective Rubber Coating

One of the main advantages of this magnetic pot magnet is its rubber coated exterior, which helps protect contact surfaces from scratches and direct contact with the underlying magnetic assembly.

This makes rubber coated magnets particularly useful for applications involving finished or painted steel surfaces.

Benefits of Rubber Coated Magnets

Surface Protection

Helps reduce the risk of scratches and scuffs on suitable contact surfaces.

Additional Grip

The rubber contact surface can increase friction and help resist sliding under suitable conditions.

Reduced Metal-to-Metal Contact

Provides a protective layer between the magnetic assembly and the supporting surface.

Versatile Mounting

Suitable for applications where magnetic attachment and surface protection are both important.

Reusable Attachment

Allows the magnet to be removed and repositioned without permanent mechanical fixing to the steel surface.

Although the rubber coating helps protect surfaces, damage may still occur if abrasive particles become trapped underneath or if the magnet is dragged across a painted surface.

M4 Male Thread for Convenient Mounting

The integrated M4 male threaded stud provides a practical fastening point for compatible threaded components.

This allows the magnet to be incorporated into custom magnetic fixtures without requiring separate adhesive attachment.

Benefits of the M4 Male Thread

• Compatible with appropriately sized M4 female threaded components

• Convenient connection for custom fixtures

• Suitable for compact magnetic assemblies

• Practical for equipment mounting

• Allows attachment of compatible brackets and accessories

• Useful for removable magnetic mounting systems

Important: Threaded stud length and maximum fastening torque have not been specified. Avoid overtightening threaded components.

Compact 22mm Diameter

The 22mm diameter provides a compact magnetic base suitable for applications where available mounting space is limited.

Its relatively small size makes it useful for positioning lightweight equipment and accessories on suitable steel surfaces.

Advantages of the 22mm Size

• Suitable for compact mounting locations

• Practical for small magnetic fixtures

• Useful for equipment accessories

• Convenient for custom engineering projects

• Discreet magnetic attachment

• Suitable for space-conscious installations

The exact holding capacity depends on the magnetic circuit and contact conditions.

Magnetic Attachment Without Drilling

This rubber coated pot magnet provides a removable attachment option for suitable ferromagnetic steel surfaces.

Rather than drilling holes or permanently modifying the supporting material, the magnet can be positioned directly against a compatible steel surface.

Benefits of Removable Magnetic Mounting

• No drilling required into the supporting steel

• Convenient installation

• Repositionable attachment

• Suitable for temporary fixtures

• Helps preserve existing surfaces

• Useful for custom equipment mounting

• Practical for applications requiring flexible positioning

For applications where detachment could cause injury or equipment damage, additional mechanical retention may be required.

Improved Resistance to Sliding

The rubber coating can provide additional friction between the magnet and the supporting surface.

This can be particularly useful for vertical mounting applications where the attached item creates a downward shear force.

Factors Affecting Sliding Resistance

• Magnetic holding force

• Rubber surface condition

• Weight of the attached item

• Steel surface finish

• Contact area

• Moisture, oil or contamination

• Direction of the applied load

Important: Rubber coating does not guarantee a specific vertical holding capacity. Actual performance must be tested under the intended operating conditions.

Ideal for Painted and Finished Steel Surfaces

Rubber coated pot magnets are commonly selected for applications where direct contact with an exposed metal magnet housing may be undesirable.

Potential mounting surfaces include:

• Painted steel panels

• Steel cabinets

• Ferromagnetic equipment housings

• Metal storage units

• Compatible steel machinery surfaces

• Steel display structures

The rubber layer helps provide a protective contact surface while maintaining magnetic attraction to the underlying steel.

Workshop and Industrial Applications

The compact size and M4 male thread make this magnet suitable for consideration in workshops, maintenance environments and industrial applications.

Potential uses include:

• Small equipment mounts

• Magnetic fixtures

• Temporary positioning devices

• Workshop accessories

• Custom brackets

• Equipment identification systems

• Engineering prototypes

Always verify the magnetic holding performance and threaded connection before using the magnet in an industrial assembly.

Compatible Magnetic Surfaces

This pot magnet is designed to attract suitable ferromagnetic materials.

Commonly Magnetic Materials

• Mild steel

• Carbon steel

• Iron

• Ferromagnetic steel panels

• Compatible structural steel

• Certain magnetic stainless steel grades

Non-Magnetic Materials

• Aluminium

• Copper

• Brass

• Plastic

• Timber

• Glass

• Non-magnetic stainless steel

Some stainless steel grades are magnetic, while others are not.

For best performance, use a clean, sufficiently thick and relatively flat ferromagnetic steel surface.

Factors Affecting Magnetic Holding Strength

Actual magnetic holding performance depends on several factors.

Steel Thickness

Thin steel surfaces may reduce the available magnetic holding force.

Surface Condition

Paint, rust, dirt and coatings can introduce gaps that reduce magnetic attraction.

Air Gaps

Even small gaps between the magnet and steel may significantly reduce holding performance.

Load Direction

Direct perpendicular pull force differs from sideways or shear loading.

Contact Area

Uneven or curved surfaces may reduce effective magnetic contact.

Environmental Conditions

Temperature, moisture, vibration and contamination may affect performance.

The magnet should be tested under actual operating conditions before being relied upon for a specific application.
