Pair of Horseshoe Magnets with Keeper
Product Code : LSK-PL-10315
Pair of Horseshoe Magnets with Keeper (SKU LSK-PL-10315) is a set of two 100 mm steel horseshoe magnets supplied with a keeper. With both poles close together, each magnet gives a strong field in the gap, which suits school lessons on poles, attraction and field patterns. The pair is manufactured by Science Lab Supplies on its own premises at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors receive quotations directly from there.
Specifications
The table records each fact about the 100 mm horseshoe pair. In short, each magnet is a steel horseshoe with its two poles brought close together, which creates a strong magnetic field between them; both are permanent magnets that stay magnetised without any power supply, and a keeper comes with the pair.

Applications and Experiments for the Horseshoe Magnets
Horseshoe magnets are used wherever a lesson needs a concentrated field between two nearby poles: testing which materials are attracted, mapping the field in the gap and showing the force on a current-carrying wire. Having a pair lets students also compare like and unlike poles.
- NCERT Class 6 science (Fun with Magnets): poles, attraction and repulsion, with like-pole repulsion also shown by the Floating Magnets.
- Class 10 physics (Magnetic Effects of Electric Current): field in the gap, pole identification with a Magnetic Needle and force on a conductor.
- Comparing a permanent magnet with an electromagnet.
Put the keeper back across the poles after use and keep the magnets away from watches, phones and computer media.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each order line covers a pair of 100 mm steel horseshoe magnets together with the keeper, as described above. Iron filings, compasses and other magnetism accessories can be listed on the same quotation when the lesson needs them, and further pairs can be added so that every student group has its own magnets.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
One pair for the teacher's table or a pair for every student group can be quoted. Each quotation gives packing, delivery time and price for the number of pairs asked for, and other school physics lab equipment in India from the magnetism range can be added.
Science Lab Supplies, a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, can ship to buyers in Peru, Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya and Ghana. The number of pairs and any filings or compasses can be noted on the contact page or collected in the enquiry cart, with the lab tender page covering formal bids.
Frequently Asked Questions
How big are the horseshoe magnets?
Each magnet is 100 mm long and made of steel. The pair comes with a keeper, which is placed across the poles when the magnets are stored.
What is the difference between a horseshoe magnet and an electromagnet?
A horseshoe magnet is a permanent magnet: it stays magnetised all the time. An electromagnet produces its field only while current flows, so its field can be started and stopped.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
Steel horseshoe pairs such as these are manufactured by Science Lab Supplies at its Saha, Ambala factory in India, and the same factory prepares the quotation, so no trading agent is involved.
Why is a horseshoe shape used?
Bending the magnet brings its two poles close together, which creates a strong magnetic field in the space between them. That makes the field easy to test and map in class.
