Alnico magnets

Alnico magnets are made from an alloy primarily consisting of aluminum, nickel, and cobalt, along with small amounts of other elements. They are known for their strong magnetic properties and can withstand high temperatures without losing magnetism. Often used in vintage electronic devices, microphones, and sensors, Alnico magnets are durable and retain their magnetism well over time. They differ from other magnets like neodymium because they are less brittle and can be remagnetized easily. Their ability to operate reliably in various applications makes them a versatile choice in technology and industry.
