Product description
for Ideal for metal recyclers, brokers, antique buyers, collectors, or anyone that needs a convenient, easy-to-carry magnet to test for iron, nickel, or cobalt content.
Identify fake/plated jewelry, which often has steel or nickel alloys as the base material (some alloys, like nickel-silver and German silver are non-magnet, despite having ferrous metals present).
Generally, the magnet test is only the first test performed, before density and acid testing.
Identify/sort chrome plated items from polished aluminum, silver, and non-magnet grades of stainless steel (chrome plating requires a nickel layer, which is magnet).
Identify and sort solid brass and bronze from steel-plated items (handy in the antique market and hardware store).
