Magnetic rods MTN

MTN are individual magnetic rods filled with permanent neodymium magnets, installed directly into a vessel, material flow, or filter — with no need for a separate housing or pipeline connection. Unlike the MR-K grate, which is a ready-made welded assembly with integrated wiping segments, the MTN is a standalone element that customers can freely combine, add to, or reposition as needed. MTN is ideal wherever the simplest and most cost-effective solution is required, without integration into a pipeline system.

NdFeB neodymium magnets are hermetically sealed inside a thin-walled stainless steel tube, generating a magnetic induction of up to 16,000 G (±10%) on the MTN surface. Thanks to this high intensity, the rod captures ferromagnetic particles from 1 micron — from both wet liquid mixtures and dry bulk materials. Class N52 magnets provide a high pull-off force that keeps captured contaminants firmly on the rod surface even in strong flow conditions.

We manufacture standard rods in diameters of 25 mm and 32 mm, and lengths from 100 to 500 mm; any custom length is available on request. The MTN-T variant has a teardrop cross-section that better protects captured iron particles from being swept away by the flowing material — the induction on its surface reaches 13,500 G. Both ends of the rods have M8 threaded holes that make mounting, connecting, and building custom separation assemblies straightforward.

MTN is inserted directly into a vessel, material flow, hopper, or filter — installation requires no special tools or construction work. Cleaning is done manually: the rod is pulled out, captured contaminants are wiped from the polished stainless steel surface, and the rod is returned. The compact dimensions and low weight make it easy to move rods from one workstation to another as needs change.

MTN requires no power supply, control electronics, or consumable parts — the permanent neodymium magnets retain their strength throughout the product's service life. Cleaning is carried out manually by operators without specialist tools, keeping service costs to a minimum. The attractive price-to-performance ratio and the availability of selected models from stock allow rapid deployment even for smaller or one-off applications.

Multiple MTN rods can be interconnected using the M8 threaded holes to create a custom magnetic grate, a set of fixed magnetic grates, or an entire separator tailored to the specific dimensions of a vessel or opening. This modular design is the key advantage of MTN over ready-made separators — the customer has full control over the number of rods, their spacing, and their arrangement. The resulting assembly can serve as an alternative to the MR-K magnetic grate or as a supplement to existing process equipment.

MTN is used across industry — in food processing, chemicals, ceramics, textiles, plastics, engineering, foundry work, recycling, and paper manufacturing. The fully polished stainless steel design makes them suitable for hygiene-critical environments. We will carry out free testing of your material on our magnetic separators and guarantee results within three days; after installation we commission the equipment, train the operators, and provide authorised service.
