An inflator cap comprising: an outer cover; an anti-corrosion lining formed in or inside the outer cover; and a magnetic member formed on, in or inside the outer cover, whereby the magnetic member of the inflator cap, once unscrewed from the inflator, will be magnetically attractable on a ferromagnetic object to prevent its loss; or whereby the anti-corrosion lining will preclude a direct contact between the outer cover of the inflator cap and a valve stem of the inflator to prevent from sticking of the oxide of the outer cover once oxidized on the valve stem of the inflator, thereby smoothly unscrewing the cap from the inflator.

A method for bonding a plurality of Nd—Fe—B permanent magnets includes a step of curing the layer of insulating adhesive at an initial temperature of between 20° C. and 250° C. and between 0.1 hr and 24 hr prior to the step of sandwiching.

A clamping tool apparatus includes at least one of three intermediate guides disposed on the lower plate, in the chamber, spaced from the magnet positioning members, and extends to a proximal end defining a second predetermined distance with the second predetermined distance being less than the first predetermined distance of the magnet positioning members. The upper plate defines a plurality of apertures for receiving the magnet positioning members and the intermediate guides.

A transducer assembly for a torque and/or angle sensor may comprise a pipe section-shaped magnet ring that is secured to a carrier sleeve via an intermediate element. The intermediate element and the magnet ring may be integrally bonded to one another via joining surfaces directed against one another. The intermediate element may be formed of a plastic at least in a region of its joining surface. To provide a transducer assembly that can be more easily produced and assembled with high reliability, the magnet ring may be formed as a plastic-bonded magnet from a plastic material filled with magnetic particles, which is integrally bonded to the plastic of the intermediate element.”
