Abstract

A rotor assembly for a brushless motor includes a core circumferentially affixed about a longitudinal surface of a shaft. A rotor magnet covers the entire outer surface of the core to seal the core within the magnet and to prevent exposure of the core to ambient conditions. The rotor magnet has a plurality of portions of alternating magnetic polarity and is formed of a plastic mixed with neodymium-iron-boron particles.
