Magnet selection, pull-force checks, and custom assemblies from one practical team. Talk with a magnet specialist

Guided advisor service model

Bunting Services

Bunting service work starts with practical questions: what must the magnet hold, separate, trigger, or protect, and what conditions will try to defeat it? That friendly intake helps buyers avoid overspecifying expensive grades or underspecifying coatings, fixtures, and safety factors.

01

Application intake

We gather the target metal, air gap, movement, cleaning method, temperature range, and available mounting space. A short intake can quickly reveal whether the project needs a high-energy neodymium grade, a lower-cost ferrite route, or a housed assembly that protects the magnet from impact.

02

Material and coating review

Magnet performance is only useful when it survives the environment. Bunting can compare nickel, epoxy, zinc, rubber, stainless housings, and other protective approaches against washdown, abrasion, humidity, handling, and long-term storage requirements.

03

Assembly planning

When a bare magnet is not enough, we review poles, spacing, cups, channels, plates, fasteners, and cleaning access. The goal is a buildable magnetic circuit that fits the plant or OEM equipment instead of forcing maintenance teams to improvise later.

04

Supply and reorder clarity

For recurring demand, Bunting helps purchasing teams standardize descriptions, drawings, grade notes, and packaging expectations. That makes reorders easier and reduces the risk of receiving a magnet that looks similar but behaves differently in service.

Embedded advisor FAQ

Questions we usually ask early.

Share the load, contact area, target material, surface finish, air gap, motion, temperature, space envelope, and whether the magnet must release on demand. Photos of the installation point are often as useful as formal drawings.

Yes. For many projects, the useful comparison is not just pull force. It includes temperature margin, corrosion risk, price sensitivity, lead time, breakage risk, and whether a housed assembly improves handling.

We help define the trial conditions, inspection points, cleaning access, and acceptance notes so the team can learn from the test instead of only deciding whether a part seemed strong enough on day one.

Side-by-side comparison

A clearer path from vague request to usable magnet package.

Before guidance

  • Quote request says only "strong magnet".
  • Temperature, coating, and air gap are missing.
  • Purchasing compares unlike grades by price alone.
  • Maintenance discovers release and cleaning issues after installation.

After Bunting review

  • Requirement includes material, grade family, coating, and mounting notes.
  • Pull-force expectations are tied to the real target surface.
  • Assembly options show cost, durability, and handling tradeoffs.
  • Reorder notes make future sourcing easier for the same line.

With inline form

Send a rough magnet question and we will help shape it.

Include a sketch, photo description, or current part number if you have one. The first response can focus on the next useful question instead of overwhelming your team with a catalog dump.
