This 75mm blue & red painted bar magnet is ideal for doing magnetic repulsion & attraction experiments. Special pricing in effect, now only $0.75 (buy 2 for a repulsion/attraction pair).

See our blog on Magnet Experiments for Kids for more information and ideas.

Do magnet experiments at home for preschoolers or with kindergarten aged children. Try picking up common objects such as spoons.

These bar magnets are very weak & will not stick to refrigerators or trip switches. Prices are discounted; all sales are final & no returns.

Specifications
If you need bar shaped magnets with greater holding or repelling force, see: neodymium magnet blocks.
 
  • Use for repulsion-attraction

  • Paint is guaranteed lead & heavy metal free

Good strong magnet, not recommended for kids as they break easily when dropped.

— Indigo:

Yes, brittleness is their main drawback. But, dirt cheap compared to AlNiCo.
