Education Horseshoe Alnico Magnets

Education Horseshoe Alnico Magnets, red coated U-shape and C-shape Alnico magnet, Alnico Horseshoe Magnet with keeper for educational science toy, Casting Alnico Pocket Magnets, AlNiCo Horseshoe Industrial Permanent Magnets

The Education Horseshoe Alnico Magnets are ideal for lifting, holding, sorting, clamping and retrieving steel or iron parts.

Grade: Cast AlNiCo 5
Coating: Red epoxy paint
Maximum Temperature: 50°C / 122°F
Theoretical Maximum Pull: 4.4lb / 70.5oz / 2000g
Calculated Max Vertical Hold-guidance only: 0.8lb / 14.1oz / 400g
Direction of magnetisation: through the length so that one flat end is north and the other is south
WARNINGS:
Never allow like poles (south-south or north-north) to come into contact with each other because it will cause the magnet to be partially demagnetised.
These magnets are brittle and will break if dropped.
Not suitable for children under 3 – soft tissue pinching hazard.
This listing is for a single magnet; bulk packs are available on a separate listing.

These magnets are ideal for children to investigate magnetism and to carry out basic experiments with. One end of the horseshoe is north and the other is south. This magnet has a red painted finish and is supplied with a steel keeper. Extra Large Red Alnico Horseshoe U-shape Magnet with 2 holes

Alnico Magnets are made by sintering cobalt, aluminum and nickel with iron and other metals to enhance the specific properties of the magnet’s grade. Alnico Horseshoe Magnet with Holes retain their magnetism even in high-temperature technical applications. They do not corrode, and they can be formed in a variety of shapes and produce highly magnetic fields in certain configurations. These magnets easily demagnetize and re-magnetize and either have a red coating or are plated with other metals.

Alnico magnets are comprised of Aluminium (Al), Nickel (Ni) and Cobalt (Co) together with small amounts of Iron, Copper and, occasionally Titanium. Alnico magnets are one of the oldest members of the magnet family and have been in existence for approximately 50 years.

The pull is calculated using a mathematical formula and is, therefore, the theoretical maximum hold between one magnet and a mild steel plate. It does not take account of manufacturing tolerances, plating, plating thickness or variances in a mild steel plate.

The vertical hold is based upon the calculated pull and is, therefore, only for guidance. Factors such as paint thickness, plasticised surfaces, movement and vibration are not taken into account.
