    How thick should stainless steel be to increase magnet strength?

    Thank you for your reply Bob S. I'm curious as to how and why the magnetic flux increases for a magnet when you place martensitic stainless steel (or ferromagnetic material) behind one of its poles. I am building a form of pyramid out of copper and am placing magnets in the apexes. It is my...

    How thick should stainless steel be to increase magnet strength?

    Why does the magnetic field increase significantly when stainless steel is placed behind a magnet? "B (flux density): This is the measurement (in Gauss or Tesla) you get when you use a gaussmeter at the surface of a magnet. The reading is completely dependant on the distance from the surface...

    How to Create 20 000 Gauss Inside a Copper Dodecahedron with Magnets?

    Thanks Berkeman. I had fogotten to consider this directional point.

    How to Create 20 000 Gauss Inside a Copper Dodecahedron with Magnets?

    Does the magnetic field around a magnet increase when the distance away from the magnet increases? While using a calculator for magnetic flux I noticed that the magnetic flux increases when the air gap increases. So does this mean the magnetic field of a magnet will increase the further you...
