Horseshoe Magnet Chrome Steel
Product Code : LSK-M-11074
Horseshoe Magnet Chrome Steel (SKU LSK-M-11074) is a horseshoe-shaped chrome steel magnet with moderate strength, painted red and supplied with keepers. The horseshoe shape brings both poles side by side, creating a concentrated field in the gap that is useful for lifting, field-pattern and force-on-a-conductor demonstrations. Science Lab Supplies, a laboratory equipment manufacturer in India, makes it at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, and supplies schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The magnet is chrome steel of moderate strength, painted red and supplied with keepers. It is listed in ten sizes: lengths of 50, 75, 100, 150 and 200 mm, each with a 12 mm width and a height of either 5 mm or 10 mm.

Applications and Experiments for the Chrome Steel Horseshoe Magnet
The horseshoe magnet places a concentrated field between its two poles, so it serves for showing field patterns in the gap, lifting iron objects and demonstrating the force on a current-carrying conductor with Fleming's left-hand rule. It fits middle-school science, Class 10 and Class 12 physics, and ITI electrical trades.
- Middle-school science: magnets and their poles.
- Class 10 science (NCERT): force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field.
- Class 12 physics (NCERT), Moving Charges and Magnetism: the force on a conductor in a field.
Standard Scope of Supply
One chrome steel horseshoe magnet, painted red, is supplied with keepers in the size you select from the ten listed. Quote the length and the 5 mm or 10 mm height when enquiring; iron filings or a compass for field work are separate items.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations can be made for one magnet or for a set for each student group, in a single size or several. Each one gives the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and bar magnets or other physics lab equipment in India can be added at the same time.
With an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Oman, the Philippines, Nepal, Bangladesh, Zambia and Rwanda. You can use the enquiry cart, the contact page, or the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
In what sizes is the horseshoe magnet made?
Ten sizes are listed: lengths of 50, 75, 100, 150 and 200 mm, each 12 mm wide, with a height of 5 mm or 10 mm. Give the length and height when requesting a quotation.
Why is a keeper used with a horseshoe magnet?
A keeper placed across the two poles closes the magnetic path when the magnet is not in use. This reduces gradual loss of magnetism, so replace the keeper after every lesson and store the magnet away from heat.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
Science Lab Supplies is the manufacturer. The horseshoe magnet is made in the company's factory at Saha, Ambala, India, so sizes, packing and delivery are confirmed by the maker in each quotation.
How strong is the chrome steel horseshoe magnet?
It is chrome steel with moderate strength, suitable for routine classroom demonstrations of poles, field patterns and the force on a current-carrying conductor. Sizes up to 200 mm long and 10 mm high are listed for bigger demonstration set-ups.
