1/2", 3/4" & 9/16" COMPOUND MAGNETS
Following the success of our 1/2" Compound Magnet FS228, C02, 3/4" & 9/16" units are now also available. These are manufactured using the same design of rigid, glass filled Nylon moulded base and cap.
We have retained the use of leather for the valves and diaphragm in these units to ensure reliability and long service life.
Samples are available and can be ordered under the Order Code FS229, 3/4" & FS230, 9/16".
As the 1/2" and 9/16" units are physically the same size and share the same footprint, with the 9/16" unit conducting a larger volume of air, we are no longer offering the 1/2" unit as standard and will substitute the 9/16" unit when 1/2" are ordered, unless there is a specific requirement for 1/2".
As always you will find the price of these units to be extremely competitive. Both sizes are available in 24 volt format at no extra cost. All units are available with either hinged or loose armatures, see price list for details.
For further details view the dedicated COMPOUND MAGNET page on this site.

We have expanded our range of Light Pallet Magnets with the introduction of FS159, 5/8"(15mm), and FS162, 1"(25mm) pallet sizes, and also a more powerfull 60 ohm coil.
Please specify any of the above when ordering.
HEAVY DUTY LEVER MAGNET
Our Heavy Duty Lever Magnet (see catalogue page on this site for picture) has been substantially modified. The main points of the modifications are as follows:-
Improved, bushed, self lubricating bearing.
Increased magnet strength by reduction in power loss through friction and by the use of a coil return spring.
New fixing hole positions for easier mounting (original holes retained for retrofitting).
Easy and positive adjustment by use of plated steel screw and lock nut.
Quieter action by use of optional cork mounting gasket.
