Alternating Multi Pole Magnetic Strip - 1 meter long
A precision steel strip with alternating North and South magnetic poles embedded at 5mm intervals along its length. Also known as a multi-pole magnetic strip, it enables non-contact position sensing — ideal for measuring movement, speed, and location using a magnetometer, Hall effect sensor, or magnetic encoder.
More durable than optical encoder strips, this magnetic strip mounts flat against any smooth surface (flat or curved) using the adhesive backing. It can be cut to length with a bandsaw or other hard-steel-cutting tool.
Key Features
- Precision Magnetic Pattern – Alternating N/S poles at 5mm spacing for accurate position sensing
- Non-Contact Sensing – Works with magnetometers, Hall effect sensors, and magnetic encoders
- Durable Steel Construction – More robust than optical strips in harsh environments
- Adhesive Backing – Self-adhesive with protective paper backing for easy mounting
- Flexible Mounting – Conforms to flat or curved surfaces
Specifications
- Length – 1 metre
- Width – 10mm
- Thickness – 0.3mm
