Description
AZ Industries, Inc. Model Number 116-10 Compact, Self-Contained Two-Pole Magnetizer is super easy to use and is used for magnetizing Alnico, Ceramic, Flexible or FeCrCo (Iron/Chromium/Cobalt) Magnets for multiple uses: electric guitar pickups and other musical instruments, electron tubes, radar, meters, electric motors, relays, speaker magnets, magnetos, holding, etc.
This standard 120V unit operates with either the momentary switch on the top or the included foot switch which plugs into the back of the unit. The long pole-piece on the top is adjustable using the included 3/8” Allen Wrench. Adjust the pole-pieces so that the magnet will fit between them. By “two-pole”, we mean that the stationary pole will magnetize North and the adjustable pole will magnetize South. If the magnet is of the anisotropic-type, the magnetic orientation must be parallel to the pole pieces when magnetizing. If the magnet is isotropic, it can be held between the two pole pieces in any direction. While holding the magnet with your right hand, press the momentary switch on the top for a second or two. Or, you can use the included foot switch which will free up both hands for the magnetizing process.
Packed well to prevent damage during shipping.
Note: This magnetizer will not work to charge (magnetize) rare-earth magnets due to them requiring a capacitor discharge type magnetizer that produces much more instantaneous power.
