Alnico Pickup Rod 0.187 Inch

Alnico Pickup Rod 0.187 Inch

Alnico Pickup Rod 0.187 Inch is a cylindrical permanent magnet commonly used as a magnetic pole piece in electric guitar pickups, bass pickups, and other electromagnetic sensing devices.
Manufactured from AlNiCo alloy through casting and precision machining, providing stable magnetic performance and consistent magnetic field characteristics required for pickup assemblies.
The 0.187-inch diameter (approximately 4.76 mm) is widely used in pickup designs where individual pole pieces are positioned beneath the strings to capture vibration and convert it into electrical signals.
Magnetic Response Characteristics

 

  • Stable Magnetic Field Output

Alnico pickup rods generate a stable magnetic field around each pole piece, providing consistent magnetic interaction with vibrating strings and supporting reliable signal generation within the pickup assembly.

  • Uniform Magnetic Sensitivity

The cylindrical rod structure promotes even magnetic distribution around the pole area, allowing consistent sensing of string movement and stable electromagnetic response.

  • Long-Term Magnetic Stability

AlNiCo material maintains its magnetic characteristics over extended periods of use, helping preserve pickup performance and magnetic consistency throughout the product lifecycle.

FAQ

 

Which Alnico grade is best for guitar pickup manufacturing?

The choice depends on the pickup design and target tonal characteristics. Alnico 2, Alnico 3, Alnico 5, and Alnico 8 are commonly used in guitar and bass pickups, with each grade offering different magnetic strength and response characteristics.

 

Can pickup rods be supplied in pre-magnetized or unmagnetized condition?

Yes. Pickup rods can be supplied either magnetized or unmagnetized according to manufacturing requirements. Many pickup manufacturers prefer unmagnetized rods for assembly before final magnetization.

 

What dimensional tolerances can be achieved for pickup pole pieces?

Tolerance requirements can be customized based on pickup bobbin design and assembly methods. Tight diameter and length control helps ensure stable press-fit installation and consistent pole alignment.
