An unvulcanized raw rubber is provided, to which magnetic ferrite powder is added. A resulting mixture composed of the unvulcanized raw rubber and magnetic ferrite powder is passed through a rolling machine or an extruding machine such that the mixture is formed into a sheet blank that contains the magnetic ferrite powder aligned regularly in a particular orientation. Alternatively, the resulting mixture may be first passed through an extruding machine and then through a rolling machine. The sheet blank is then stamped across a planar direction such that a ring-like sheet is formed. The ring-like sheet, along with a supplemental ring, is placed inside a metal mold, where the ring-like sheet and supplemental ring are compressed in an axial direction, while applying heat thereto, so that the ring-like sheet is vulcanized and joined to the supplemental ring. Finally, the vulcanized ring-like sheet is magnetized so that S poles and N poles appear alternately around its circumference.
