5V Electromagnet - 10 Kg Holding Force - P30/22
100 units available with a short lead time.
This 5V electromagnet provides 10kg of holding force when energised with approximately 5V DC (4–6V working range). When the power is switched off, the magnet loses its magnetic field, making it perfect for controllable locking, sorting, and pick-and-place applications.
Since it behaves as an inductive load, you should drive it through a motor or solenoid driver with flyback (kick-back) protection to avoid damaging your microcontroller.
Key Features

Package Contents
- 1× 5V Electromagnet (10kg holding force, P30/22)
Note: Holding force is not the same as pick-up weight. Divide by 5–10 for an approximate pick-up capacity (~1–2kg). Actual performance depends on the contact surface being flat and the object being ferromagnetic steel.
The 5V Electromagnet - 10 Kg Holding Force - P30/22 appears in the following collections:
