Horse Shoe Magnets Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Horse Shoe Magnets (Product Code: SCL-421/107) are U-shaped permanent magnets used to create a concentrated magnetic field between two close poles for magnetism and electromagnetism experiments in schools. Bending the magnet brings its north and south poles side by side, producing a strong field in the gap, which makes them standard physics lab equipment. They are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Key Details

What Are Horse Shoe Magnets Used For?

Because the field between the poles is strong and concentrated, a horseshoe magnet is the usual choice for the force-on-a-conductor experiment: a wire carrying current between the poles jumps sideways, demonstrating Fleming's left-hand rule. Moving a wire or coil through the gap while it is connected to a galvanometer shows electromagnetic induction.

Students also sprinkle iron filings on paper laid over the poles, or trace field lines with a small compass, to see how the field crowds across the gap. Store the magnets in pairs with unlike poles together or with a soft-iron bar across the poles, keep them away from electronic devices, and avoid dropping them, since knocks weaken permanent magnets over time.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, supplies these horseshoe magnets from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company sources them for schools, colleges, dealers and importers who need permanent magnets for field-plotting and electromagnetism practicals, and can quote them with compasses and filings for a complete magnetism set. Company details are on the ScienceLab company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Horse Shoe Magnets permanent magnets?
Yes, Horse Shoe Magnets (SCL-421/107) are permanent magnets, so they stay magnetised without any power supply. This differs from an electromagnet, whose magnetic field is produced by a current and can be started and stopped by switching that current.

Why is the horseshoe shape useful?
The horseshoe shape brings the two poles of Horse Shoe Magnets close together, creating a strong magnetic field in the gap between them. That concentrated field makes experiments such as the force on a current-carrying conductor and electromagnetic induction easier to observe in class.

What sizes of Horse Shoe Magnets are available?
Size, pole gap and magnet material for Horse Shoe Magnets are not stated on this page. Tell us the dimensions or field strength your experiment needs through the ScienceLab contact page, and the quotation will describe the magnets offered before you order.

How should Horse Shoe Magnets be stored?
Store Horse Shoe Magnets with a soft-iron bar across the poles or in pairs with unlike poles together, away from electronics and bank cards. Avoid dropping or heating them, since knocks and heat can weaken a permanent magnet over time.

Who supplies the Horse Shoe Magnets?
Horse Shoe Magnets are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India, to schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets. They can be quoted together with compasses, iron filings and electromagnet apparatus.
