SOME INTERESTING USES OF RARE EARTH MAGNETS

Here are some of the many answers that our customers have given to the question, “What do you plan to use these magnets for?” Obviously, some of these uses are quite valid while others are a tad silly.

If you come up with a clever use of our magnets, feel free to take pictures and send them to us. If we like them, we might add them to the customer-contributed section of our demo page. يرجى الملاحظة, however, that by sending us images and ideas, you are implicitly giving us permission to use them as we please.

POSSIBLE USES OF WONDERMAGNETS:

• Part of the magnetic gasket on my freezer door died and it leaves a long gap when the door is closed. I put small slits along the gasket and slipped 3/8″ س 1/16″ magnets into the slits. No immediate help was noted, but the next morning the gap was closed. The gasket works fine now.
• Doing some tinkering
• I used them for the Magnetraction on one of my Lionel Hudson steamers, never worked better, now holds the rail better than when new.
• giving my workmates fits in the cubicle next to me by messing with their monitor when I get bored
• Pulling free ions from the sparkgap of my Tesla Coil
• Hold directions to my motorcycle gastank so they don’t come off at 100mph
• making a “buff strongman” look like a fool by not being able to separate a silly stack of magnets by pulling them directly apart
• Hi! I thought you’d get a kick out of my useage of your magnets. A few months ago I ordered a stack of 12 1/2″ المغناطيس القرص. I stacked them into a cylinder, and slipped them into a PVC tube. The tube was wound to 2x the length of the magnets with 3 layers of 18awg PVC coated wire. I applied a pulse discharge cap to it, at a potential of around 9kv. The spark gap (high speed switch here, sillycon can’t switch the amperage) conducts and dumps the charge through the coil. I figure it’s sinking around 2000+ amps for maybe 1/100000th of a second. Result? Really loud boom from the sparkgap. 18awg wire blows off half it’s insulation and stretches to roughly an extra inch in diameter. The cylinder of magnets goes across the room faster than I can see, and whumps safely to a stop in a stack of pillows, rumpled sheets, and styrofoam. Very cool 🙂 I been doing this stuff for a few years, so I am very safe (2″ thick wooden box encased in cargo straps around the firing coil, spark gap enclosed in plywood box, target path cleared, target is up to the impact, إلخ. The magnets did a *LOT* better than I expected, but the acceleration or deceleration pulled the stack apart. And the magnets got very hot (hotter than I expected) from the eddy currents induced. All in all, it was a pure hoot.

The class will then critically analyze their observations and consider alternative hypothesis that do not defy the laws of physics. It is my optimistic hope that the students will apply what they have learned about critical thinking to this and the other pseudoscientific nonsense they encounter daily.
