5V Electromagnet (8 Kg Holding Force)
Discontinued
This compact 5V DC sucker-type electromagnet provides 8kg of holding force at 1.5W of power. When energised, the iron core becomes magnetised; when power is removed, the magnetism dissipates quickly. The magnetic polarity can be reversed by swapping the input wires.
Key Features
- Holding Force – 8kg
- Rated Voltage – DC 5V
- Rated Power – 1.5W
- Wire Length – 28cm
- Reversible Polarity – Swap wires to change magnetic pole orientation
- Instant On/Off – Magnetic only when powered
Ideal For
- DIY electromagnetic locks and latches
- Smart storage cabinets and intelligent doors
- Pick-and-place and sorting mechanisms
- Robotics and automation projects
Package Contents
- 1× 5V Electromagnet (8kg holding force)
- 1× Mounting screw
Note: Holding force is not the same as pick-up weight. Divide by 5–10 for an approximate pick-up capacity (~0.8–1.6kg). Actual performance depends on the contact surface being flat and the object being ferromagnetic steel. The electromagnet can remain energised long-term when attracted to a surface, but should not be powered continuously with no load attached. Wire colour may vary.
