Horseshoe Alnico Magnet 1.18" W 10-lb Pull Red w/Keeper - Magnet Source 07270 Lift, hold, and retrieve metal objects with the Magnet Source 07270 Horseshoe Magnet ? a compact, high-strength alnico magnet designed for reliable performance in workshops, garages, classrooms, and industrial environments. Recognizable by its classic red finish and traditional U-shape, this permanent horseshoe magnet delivers a strong 10-pound pull force (up to 13 lb under ideal conditions), making it ideal for picking up nails, screws, washers, and other ferrous materials. Measuring 1.18 inches in width, 0.78 inches in height, and 0.78 inches in depth, this compact magnet is easy to handle and store. It is constructed from durable alnico (aluminum-nickel-cobalt), a high-quality magnetic material known for its resistance to demagnetization and long-term stability. The red protective coating prevents chipping and corrosion while enhancing visibility during use. Each magnet includes a steel keeper?a flat bar that bridges the poles when the magnet is not in use?helping to preserve its magnetic strength and extend service life. Simply slide the keeper on when storing to minimize flux loss and maintain peak performance. The 07270 is a permanent magnet with a magnetic energy product (MGOe) of 5.5, ensuring consistent holding power over time. It is non-telescoping and designed for manual use in hands-on tasks such as cleaning metal debris, organizing tools, or demonstrating magnetic principles in educational settings. Weighing just 0.180 lb and packaged in a protective clamshell, it?s ready for retail display or immediate use. Though small in size, it delivers powerful functionality for mechanics, electricians, DIYers, teachers, and hobbyists. Note: This magnet is classified as hazardous for transport due to its strong magnetic field and should be handled and stored with care, especially around electronics, pacemakers, and magnetic media.
