Student Magnetic Field Demonstrator cleanly demonstrates properties of magnetic materials. Iron fillings measuring 3-3/4 in x 2 -3/4 in (90mm x 65mm x 6mm) are sealed conveniently inside a transparent plastic case.
A rainbow of 5/8" magnetic marbles that sometimes attract each other and sometimes repel. Used by the Astronauts in experiments in space.
See what objects this safe and durable Magnet Wand attracts around your house or classroom...or try it with with Magnet Marbles or Metal-Rimmed Counting Chips by Dowling Magnets (not included). Great for magnet play, experiments, sensory tables, scavenger hunts, bingo, party favors, and even your hobbies (cleans up hardware and metal shavings around the workshop or sewing pins and needles). Comes in assorted colors.
Experiment with magnetism, create fun games, and amaze your friends. Magically dangle a chain of marbles from the wand, make the marbles dance without touching them, and more. Includes 1 magnet wand (7.63 inches long) in assorted solid colors and 5 bicolor magnet marbles (.63 inches in diameter). Ceramic magnets are completely encased in plastic. Ceramic magnets are the most lightweight and economical magnets. Children safety tested for ages 4+.
Demonstrates the action of electric current on a magnet. Magnetic needle with brass bearing supported by pivot mounted on a base and surrounded by a rectangle of copper rod fitted with terminals.
Two 5.5" long magnetic needles with colored poles are mounted on plastic stands with needle bearings. Use individually as a compass or as a pair to show attraction and repulsion.
Red and blue plastic covered bar magnets. These magnets are attractive as well as an easy way to teach magnetic attraction and repulsion. Each magnets dimensions are 80x15x10mm. 1 pair (2 red / 2 blue).
20mm, 7/8" diameter compasses for magnet experiments. Aluminum case with glass top.
Neodymium (NdFeB) is the most powerful magnet material in the world. Neodymium is classified as an element in the lanthanides section of the Periodic Table. These are the super strong magnets you have heard about that can attract through your hand.
